I like the Saleen power but personally dont like the look of the rear end body style.

We're talking real vs fake.... nobody mentioned motor size. Besides, it's about how much hp/tq you put to the wheels, not how many cylinders it takes to make that.

Hard Driver,
Someone messed up prior to you getting it then. In 02 the GT badges came off and the block R badge replaced it on the fender. Someone added those after the fact. Same with the "380R" on the door. Roush it is, 380R it is not.

Lil Roush, definately not a 380R, and I COMPLETELY AGREE that the GT badges should come off. It's tacky to have both. How much hp do you think our Roush is making? I figure maybe 285-295hp and not sure about the torque.

I like both. Different style/graphics, different add-ons. They are all Mustangs, no matter what 'tricks' you bolt on them. Too bad ego's always get in the way when enjoying a nice cruise around the block or a nice pass down the 1/4 mile. Sort of puts a bad light on Mustang owners when you have to badmouth someone's else's Mustang.

Much love for both.
Personally, choose ROUSH, even as an upstart, after seeing several friends having issues with SALEEN and seeing the corporate response.
I love both but my heart has been with ROUSH for over 10yrs now and still approve of their offerings.
Would proudly park a S351 next to either ROUSH.
