Speaking of SEMA, I saw a SEMA Magazine for this year at my mechanics garage today! It had about 15-20 pages of Mustang info. I couldn't spend the time to read it but I flipped through it for a sec! It has an 05 Mustang on the cover of the Mag!

Those wheels are awesome, and the decals are probably pretty close to what Saleen will actually use, seeing as they're from previous Saleen Mustangs.

The wing looks nice, but the body kit looks a little bit overdone. Overall, I loved this picture when I first saw it in the P&R forum.

I think the wheels are awesome also, but not on an 05! They look great on 94-04's but I think the 05 looks better with a larger spoke!

I agree, I'm glad I went with them....I think the spinners would look spiffy as well

Here's what I want. (I chopped someone else's chops, to put the options and look I want)

An SVT or GT500, with TARGA (give me the open road, but closed tight when I want). A convertible hard top would work too. But here's my targa, with subtle wing in the back, vents in the front, bullitts, shaded lights. Gimme, gimme.

Hahaha Man I should make some more like these and not post any info on them. Should mess poeple up pretty good. This is like the 18th forum I've seen that question on. I liked those and the deep dish bullitts myself.

I was wondering how much it would cost to do it myself? Buy a vert (becauuse it has the frame improvements), then pay to have a targa roof put on by a custom place. I'd assume a few thousand extra? I just have no clue.

I must say I am also in love with that targa! I never would've thought to start with a 'vert body, but that just makes sense, doesn't it? Great idea! Now if only I had the funding to get a couple, do the research, and start building. Oh, and some sort of practical knowledge of bodywork might help, too. Any millionaire bodyshop guys out there willing to give this a go?

It would probably be easier to buy a coupe than have a reputable shop reinforce the frame, before taking it to a high quality custom shop to have the roof converted into a targa top.

I am soo picky on who touches my car that I could never have that done, even though I love that Targa chop.

The reason I couldn't afford it is I would be too freaked out to let anyone other than Chip Foose or Troy Trepanier cut into my Stang and I doubt I could afford either one of those guys.
