Actually, Foose did HELP with the design, but didn't have full control over it. Note what Jessica says about talking about it to Foose himself:

"We talked about the Foose 05, and he confirmed my suspicions. It was a collabrative effort. They basically asked for his design tips on doing an Eleanor, and he ended up doing so much work on it they decided to rename it a Foose 05. There will only 3000 produced. He did tell me that this is NOT a tyical Foose, he didnt get to rework any steel on this, and thats why it doesnt look like a Foose design. He said, "Its what I could do with stick on parts."
From this thread: http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index....opic=32610&hl=

And as far as the pricing is concerned, it looks like it will have the same type of upgrades as Saleen, yet be a little cheaper (not much though).

The car pictured in this post is not the one Unique Performance is going to be making.

The orange one pictured is a one of a kind made by Foose for BF Goodwrench.
It will be at car shows and you can sign up to win this car.

From the Unique Performance site.

The one that there will be 3000 made of is the Mineral Gray looking one with the Boss striping trimmed in orange and Black Foose rims

I do not know how to post pics from other sites or I would.

If someone with the know how would like to post a pic I would be most grateful.

The car is called the Stallion

This is a link I think will work, not sure though

Woo Hoo the link worked I am so proud of myself

Edit= checked link

Again, for the money, seems like the Shelby is the better value...if you can get one.

See Foose screwed up. We read all about the mustang and we thought it was his design until somebody tould us it wasn't. So the general public will think its a Foose and if they don't like it, like us. It will make him look bad. Stupid thing to do on his part

I heard that they were going to be around $38k. If you want to talk about over priced let's talk about Roush, $38k for a GT with a gay body kit. At least with Unique and Foose you get some wheels and a good lookin body kit.

I’m not sure I’m going to like the thought of 2500+ stangs with my wheels either. If and when that does happen some might say I’m trying to make my car a “Foose Stallion Clone†:bang:

I don't think that's a bad thing. I like the Foose wheels and am considering them for my car. The only people that you will catch flack from will be the guys on the boards that are jealous or can't afford the wheels for themselves. And there will be guys on the boards that will like the car or actually have CREATIVE criticism. I'm sure that the people around where you live thinks that your car is bad azz!!

I saw the black/copper one this past weekend at a Goodguys car show. They had it at the BFGoodrich trailer. It was awesome in person!

The more i look at it the more i like it..and you can clearly see on UP's site that chip is doin some clay work on it.
Obviously the car is done with stick on parts.. You wouldn't be able to do an affordable one any other way..but those Parts are designed by Chip. IMO this car looks better than any of the other "tuner" cars out there..Roush, saleen etc... but that's just me.

Not a fan of the parts, am a fan of Foose.

Did not like the overhaulin' stang in the 'Snake' episode. Ruined a black stang imo.
