I was looking at what's going to be on NY auto show and came across this:
http://www.stangnet.com/Ford-Mustang-News/Saleens-Dan-Gurney-Edition-Ford-Mustang-080402.html
What do you guys think about this car? Will it run for 60 something grand? Oh and by the way, good news, just like PJ Saleen it's going to be equipped with a watts link, which was known for its failure in the previous model.

The side photo and the interior looked great, but the front shot didn't do it for me. Kinda looked like a big mishmash of parts and doesn't tie in very well. And the big number on the door is too much for my taste. The white chin spoiler won't stay that way too long. Should go with black, especially because the side and rear skirts are also black.
And it looks like they gave it the GT500 lower bumper but not the facia. Doesn't match well.

On the plus side I like how they don't cover over the rear side windows, like on the PJ model, the FOUR exhaust pipes look very original,

I like the look of the PJ better....They better price it at less then 60k. They had the PJ priced in the 60's and many of the '07 still have not sold, one dealer in Irivine has had some priced at just under 50k for some time and they are not moving.

I wonder if the bumper sticker is standard equipment.

Side shot looks pretty good, but the rest looks too busy.

wasnt a failure,  there was a recall though (apparently an easy fix)
my car has a watts link installed from after the recall period and works like a charm

I love the color but I could do without the stripes.

I think this is a suspension combination that has never before been featured on a Saleen vehicle, and one that received the personal stamp from Dan Gurney himself.

It looks good but I like what they did with Roush Blackjack Stage 3 better
