Grill fogs are a little too much. Minus those and it's a winner.

Saleen doesn't do fogs. They generally delete the factory ones and just use the headlights, as they did in their original render in the OP.

i think less is more and only do two instead of four. And it needs to be more pronounced or it'll seem too dainty.

I think the '15 is already a stunning mustang and I'm sure the Saleen team will take it to the next level in terms of design. Can't wait to see the real deal, hopefully at the woodward cruise!

On a side note, I feel like the old Saleen/Roush business model is outdated in terms of taking a base mustang, slapping on two hundred different badges, customizing the leather seat skins while overcharging for performance upgrades and selling it for the same price as a GT500. What I do wish is that Saleen would simply offer the body kit as a dealer installed option that can be wrapped into the financing along with a warranty on the body work.

I don't care about owning a limited edition, 1 out of 45 collectors mustang that is virtually impossible to sell at a reasonable amount in the used market. What I do care about is rocking their gorgeous body kit without having to track it down on the internet piece by piece or having my local body shop put a hit out on me because of the difficulty of installation. I just want the kit!

The 05-14 body stlyes, IMO, went back to sleek and smooth.

But all looked different than anything else out there, muscle wise.

I feel like this falls into line with the ZL1, Z28, '12 Boss LS, SRT & R/T, and GT500... (Front wise only). It disappears in the crowd, IMO.
Of course this is all IMO...so IMO the 05-09 was more like the 94-98 and although OK, I wasn't the biggest fan. After the 2010 restyling I started to like them a lot (same with 99-04). For me a 10-12 front end with the 13/14 rear would be ideal.

As for Saleen's, they have always been my favorite Mustangs except for the 05-09. I really like how the current S302 White Label just makes some subtle changes to make the car look better and then going to the Black Label is more striking but still really good. My first impression of the 2015 Saleen was Camaro. Not I'm starting to view it as some others as a throw back to 10-12. I'll reserve final judgment to see the whole car.

After putting the GT500 spoiler on my 2014 I like it better as well but really wish I'd have waited and saved a few hundred more up towards the Saleen S302 wing. Maybe if I don't trade the 2014 in on a 2015 Saleen I'll just turn mine into an S302 clone

I wouldn't count on that ! As Saleen is just mere shell of itself and from my understanding are that much closer to extinction

IMHO just not feeling that look! I'd rather have the GT350 over that thing any day. :-)
