Steve Saleen is a smart man, he's seeing that Ford is in very serious financial trouble... he's going where the money will be.

Damn, I don't care where the money is, for stang lovers I think this sucks big time. Stang owners or should I say Saleen owners pay extra for the exclusivity and extra hp to have a one of a kind car/experience. This just waters it all down. Bad Move IMHO, very bad move. ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh. SLP is HARDLY a company like Saleen (they make mufflers for christ sake ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif) ), and definately does not have a reputation or standards of Saleen. In fact it's not even the same kind of business, so how can you compare the 2. ![[Confused]](confused.gif)
Thats like Shelby taking his name and putting it on a Camaro. C'mon now.

cant wait to hear about the saleen honda civic or saleen mazda rx8. LOL
not a cool move by saleen. the least they couldve done was create a separate division that deals with other car makes and change the name.

Steve Saleen doesnt even own the company any more, he just runs it. I think in the end it wasnt his call but who ever owns the company.

i think of the crew members took the saleen plate over off the s197 saleen and put it on the camaro, just becuase everyone would have a fit and whine, basicly to instigate threads like this.

i really dont care if saleen makes projects for GM cause FORD and GM are american companies, but what suprices me is all this cars are making so much power, i mean back in 2000 when i bought my gt I felt like i had a fast car, but now a days we are talking about 500hp+ cars like nothing.

500 is a big fucking hp #. But, the fact that we can get it sooo easily is UNFATHOMABLE!
You guys need to stop drinking the Hatorade. I'm actually glad to see Saleen making a good business move. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

Im really not feeling this saleen camaro. saleen has always been synonymus with ford and being a bad ass car. Ive always wanted to own one but now that its no longer going to be a ford exclusive i might be changing my mind. Being that im a ford buff id rather stay with ford exclusive nomenclature. but i guess from a business aspect its a good move.

That's all it's about. It's never been about being exclusive to Ford or what have you. Steve is in it for the money and puts out a good car. But, that doesn't mean, he can't leave Ford. Besides, Roush isn't going anywhere.
