It turned out not being an Extreme, so no 5.0 Saleen supercharger... yet. 
I kind of like the wheels, but I've never been a fan of carbon fiber.

I don't know, I don't like the wheels, I miss the center exiting exhaust that was the center peace of the Extreme's before it... Molley (Molly Saleen)could of used some of her dad's (Steve Saleen) design Q's... I will admit that they have gone the right way as far more options with the S-197 platform vice the SN-95 or New Edege Mustangs... More wheels to choose from, More and better looking hood's... The only different hood U could get with the SN-95 or New Edege platforms were S-281E Hood other wise U were stuck with a stock GT or Cobra hood (With the 4V S-281SC only). If they wanted to spice this thing up all they would have to is, take the rims from the 2009 SALEEN Black Horse, use the same Supercharger / Shaker hood set up from the Black Horse only for the 4V 5.0 DOHC twek it a bit with a butterfly valve system like the 2009 SMS Mustang, & last but not least add the center exiting exhaust only keep the boxy shape that it already has... Leave the Wing & all the Carbon Fiber Accents with the already agressive 2010 / 2011, that would just screem "EXTREME" to me!!!!

Ive always loved the way they change up the rear ends on mustangs, and ever since ive seen the first concept pics of the new saleen ive wanted to buy one. I would change the wheels asap though, those just dont look right to me. In fact it seems like theyre goin after the 458 italia with rims. Long, thin spokes on a big tire and decently sized brakes. Ferrarri has some monster brakes tho so it works haha

Pull the plate up between the back tail lights. Widen the blackout
to cover 1/3 of the tail light.
Put SALEEN recessed in the back fascia (bumper) and make the bottom valance
between the tailpipes Carbon Fiber.
Instead of bumping out the side window covers drop in a recessed delete but
make the forward part open like this one has. No Bumping of it out....recess it!
Agreed-a 7 spoke dark chrome wheel would be nice. I think they have that now.
The front spoiler looks like its peeling away from the sides. Since this is a finished car I guess its meant to look like small V wings or something but to me it just looks like the 3M tape didnt work and its peeling away. Fix that...
