So I saw a new Saleen Mustang yesterday. I couldn't stop laughing at how hideous it was. Anyone else seen one? The rear looks like an f'ing Foreman Grill:

No longer onyachin.
saw one a couple months ago. It looked pretty good. I didnt like the grille but the overall stance of the car was nice
The main problem with the new Mustang styling wise is that it just plain wasn't built for bodykits. The stock lines look fine, add a chin spoiler and ducktail rear and you're set. The car just looks like a tank when you fully kit it out, and is almost as heavy as one.
And that is why I will always prefer, and miss, this one:
Mike, i drive by one like that everyday on the way home, but it's in black....looks pretty good actually. probably because the black takes away from the "flame broiler grillin" part on the back

Really? I love it to death
but here ya go....
saw one in the burg at the begining of the year, i dont think it was a true Saleen but you can get a Saleen stang with just the body kit. It was White by the way.

A 'saleen stang' w/ a body kit is the base saleen. That's the only way they are sold, unless you buy it and install it yourself.
Personally I've never been a fan of any of the aftermarket body kits.

+1 except some widebody kits. They're kinda cool.

i've never really been a mustang fan, but this isn't that bad IMO
Where the turn signals go? Just not feeling it. I love what looks like a completely glass roof.

this one is my favorite,
Yes, all carbon fiber, fenders, quarters, doors, bumpers and side molding. The entire body kit is around 7k-10k.
The doors weigh 7.4oz  hock:
The driver of that car (Carol Holfelder) is actually a parapeligic(sp?). She posts on the Speed Channel sports car forum from time to time in addition to the WC forum.
I think the new Saleen looks fine except for the fugtacular derriere. I like the old Saleen mo better.
