Fox Body SALEEN Mustangs

A look back at the iconic Fox Body Saleen Mustangs of the 80's and 90's that put Steve Saleen on the map.

These are my favorite cars ever

Me too! If I won the lottery I wouldn’t buy a Ferrari or Lambo, I would buy an 88 Saleen and spend the rest on gas to drive it all over the world! Haha

I really like the white with blue accents of the early Saleen Mustang. I could not afford one back then and bought a GT instead. To this day though, I still have a soft spot in my heart for a Saleen. My understanding is the non-SSC Saleen was slower than the GT/LX in 0-60 as it had a lower rear gear which required an upshift to 3rd gear before 60 MPH was reached.

I go back and forth between the white w blue and the black w grey as my all time favorite, but it is definitely the 87-88 Saleen 3 stripe version on both that I love. In 89 they changed to the 9 stripes which I don’t like as much. Yeah, back then Saleen was not as much into speed or horsepower but more about handling and styling. They are amazing cars to drive and to this day they look awesome. I had an 88 when I was a kid, I wish I had it today, it would be worth a fortune!
