shouldnt this at least have mustang or ford in its name?? It did start out as a Ford Mustang GT (hence the emblem) and they were only sold at ford dealerships |

On the Saleen website they list it as "Saleen S281", then in the description they add "Mustang" after the name. So the real name seems to be only "Saleen S281". |

Not true any more. It was recently decided that Saleen vehicles are modified enough to be listed as a non Ford vehicles. For the new models at least. |

MSO, Manufacturers statement of origin lists registration make as Ford, model is listed as Saleen Mustang. Saleen does not manufacture the cars, they just modify them. Hope this helps. http://www.moddedmustangs.com/2006-ford-mustang-saleen-s281.html -- Last edit: 2006-11-13 02:05:29 |

I still think that the Saleen's should be listed like this one (to help with the search at least) BUT I no matter which way they are listed they need to be together so I gues this one needs to be listed like the others 1996 Saleen S281 Speedster |
