Wow! For $49,000.00 including the full purchase of my 06 Mustang GT premium package with tax, I've added: tinting, Complete suspension change out, Saleen Supercharged with the JDM 550 kit now, gotten the ducktail, the chinsplitter, awsome bullit 18" wheels, awsome wide summer tires, and also wide all season tires, the Watts link kit and install, power slot rotors all around, ABS pads, ss breaklines, with enough cash left over for the 4 piston 2 piece 14" Stop-Tech brake upgrade with installation. Ridiculous. Erik

Oops. That also includes my Borla rear solution kit, painted mirror inserts, shorty antenna, Saleen dash gauges and my new car scent air freshener. Erik

Funny,

It seems only subjective 'style' issues kept the judges from handing the win to Saleen. They seemed to like the more stock styling of the shelby GT-C. Another subjective match-up.Oh well.

I'd rather have the Shelby GT Hertz edition as it is a true limited production vehicle. I've driven the Shelby GT and it is weaksauce compared to my PJ!

Nice work on the link!~

One big factor was the brakes. Saleen had no up grade, flew on the stock GT factory issue. Looks is totally a political debate with no clear winners. You like what like. Style issues they had no clue.

All three cars are fricking badass regardless...

I dont care what these guys say. both the saleen and the roush beat the shelby in looks hands down. the shelby looks too much like a stock Gt.

as for the saleen wanting to push in corners.. I noticed this too when I went out on a road course. Its not too bad and you can power it around but I do think a larger rear sway bar would help this. I dont know why they left it stock anyways.

A Stage 2 is the equivalent to a NA S281; similar performance mods. Always has been.
