Mustang Saleen S7 Twin Turbo Design Sport Car
Mustang-Saleen-S7-Twin-Turbo-Design-Sport-CarSaleen knows all about power. As in S281 Mustangs, N2O Focuses and the S7, America’s first (and still the only) mid-engine exotic supercar. When it went on sale in 2002, the S7 was the only street-legal car in the U.S. with more than 500 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque.

Saleen S302 launched
Saleen Performance Vehicles of Tecumseh, Michigan, has unveiled the latest in its growing range of Ford Mustang-based vehicles.
The S302 is named for the capacity of its engine: 302 cubic inches, or 5.0 litres. Equipped with a Saleen Performance air filter and exhaust system, the normally-aspirated V8 develops 425 bhp (431 PS / 317 kW) and 536 Nm of torque. Sounds impressive, but it’s only a small increase over the standard 2011- spec Mustang, which has 412 bhp (418 PS / 307 kW) and 529 Nm.
However, it looks like the main focus has been on two other aspects of the car. The first is the chassis, which features revised suspension, front anti-roll bar and bushings all from Saleen Racecraft. Optionally available are specific-rate front and rear springs, nitrogen-pressurised shocks, adjustable damping and a strut brace.
Second is appearance. For starters, the 18” wheels of the standard car have been binned in favour of 20” Saleen items. Then there’s a new bonnet and front grille, as well as a body kit which looks great apart from the overly fussy side skirts. To complete the look, covers for the rear side windows can be selected from the options list. The interior features Saleen Design leather seats with ‘Ultrasuede’ inserts, leather door inserts, unique Saleen gauges and a piano black centre console.
No word on pricing yet, but the Saleen S302 will be available as either a coupe or convertible.

Saleen S7 Twin Luxury Speed Car
The interior of the Saleen S7 was designed to be both luxurious and functional. Leather appears throughout the cabin, with aluminum accents, and the S7 comes with a set of custom-fit luggage. Because of the car's mid-engine layout, it has two trunks, front and rear. Other features include an LCD monitor, rear-view camera, quick-release steering-wheel and a 240 mile per hour (386 km/h)
