2005 Saleen Mustang S281

Coupe · 2005

This is our first all-new car in this market segment since we began manufacturing automobiles more than two decades ago. And by ‘new’ I mean the changes are much more than skin deep. We have an all-new all-aluminum 281-cubic-inch, 3-valve V8 matched to a slick-shifting 5-speed manual gearbox.

The suspension is totally new with an advanced MacPherson strut design up front and a three-link live rear axle with a Panhard rod at the rear. The improvements in handling have to be driven to be believed.
