The Hertz cars won't be offered to Ford dealers at all. They'll be auctioned off in 2007.

at closed auctions . . . and who attends those . . . Ford dealers, of course.

Anyone notice the rocker mouldings are 2 tone unlike the GT500 that uses a complete V6 moulding.

include the Saleen supercharger and it may sell at that price. The interior, suspension, and wheel/tire package are top notch. Paint the gas cap black rather than chrome to match the accents.

I can't believe that a headlight obstruction would get past the rule makers.
I do like the exhaust tips

I really like the rear end and the exhaust tips as well

Nicely executed to be sure, but WAY too much stratch. Yet another trailer queen that will never make it into the garage of the working man, I fear.

As to the Hertz Shelby: who would want to buy one of those after it's been out in the rental fleet having the bag driven off it by the public? No thanks. If I can't get it new, I don't want it.

Great close-ups, Topnotch.

For $50K+ I'd want a lower grille that matched the upper instead of that hardware store mesh. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/nonono.gif[/img]

I think they did a MUCH better job on the rear end compared to the regular Saleen.

So let me get this straight, SE in SE Mustangs really means "Super Expensive"? $50K? Nice idea, but no thanks.

^ Actually, that is "mid to upper" $50k. Knowing Saleen, that means $59.9k out the door + dealer markup.

No wonder they are only making 500...

Truly rediculous.

I like the PJ Edition Saleen and that's a first for me. Although, I could have sworn I've have seen it before...

Could it be . . .

Nah, it COULDN'T be!

YES I HAD!

I'm not trying to be a jerk here, but what's really sad is that the Saleen car looks more like a Boss than your cars do. If you guys made your Shinoda Bosses to look more like the original, I'm sure you'd sell 10 times as many. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]
