Vehicle Description
Steve Saleen has an eye for style and speed, that's why his
Mustangs are always in demand. This low mileage 2003 Ford Mustang
Saleen convertible shows exactly why with a speedy/slippery look
and extra power and growl from the V8.
Saleens have a nice options list and a hand-crafting facility, and
so ordering one from them is always a small batch affair. In fact,
this one is #242 of a 400 limited production. But it's more than
just uniqueness that attracted you to this one. The deep red paint
has a deep modern clearcoat, so it has an impressive hard shine -
exactly what you want in a sunshine-friendly droptop like this. And
the overall presentation is anything but subtle thanks to the
swoopy Saleen bodywork. This includes a new front fascia, lower
rocker moldings, integrated rear wing, and a special rear bumper.
Even the details are aggressive like the gills ahead of the front
wheels and the Saleen graphics package. Plus, those special high
chrome 18-inch alloys might just draw in the crowds all on their
own. Check out the front bumper just ahead of the driver's side
headlight and you'll note it tells everyone this is serial number
242 - that's a great Saleen hallmark.
Inside, this modern custom classic gives you all the convenience of
a loaded Mustang. There's a long list of features like cruise
control, power locks, power mirrors, keyless entry/alarm, dual
airbags, and power driver's seat. Plus, you can tell they invested
in custom style with body-colored door inserts, carbon fiber panel
trim, and billet upgrades on knobs and switches. Plus, the stereo
is now a modern AM/FM/CD unit featuring an LCD screen and
Bluetooth. With power windows and a power convertible top, you
don't even have to leave the driver's seat to go from enclosed
comfort to a wind-in-your-hair experience. We know you'll love
showing off that bracing bar that adds strength and speedy style.
Best of all, you can do that all through the summer season and stay
as cool as you look thanks to ice-cold air conditioning. But this
is a true driver's car at its heart. That's why you get grippy
Mustang sports steering wheel, a shifter in the exact place your
hand wants to be, and white-faces Saleen gauges. There's leather
bucket seats upgraded with Saleen embroidery. And because this one
has averaged less than 1,100 miles annually, they look fantastic
from seeing very have seen very little seat time. The rear seats
have seen even less use, because they have spent most of their time
under a hard tonneau that gives this unique Mustang the look of a
true roadster.
The engine is the fuel-injected 4.6-liter V8 that's built a
reputation as hardy as the 5.0 while being smoother and more
refined. This original motor has been given the Saleen touch with
items like the polished bracer bar for strength and the cold air
intake for power. Plus, an exhaust upgrade means added power and
more growl. The original five-speed manual transmission is the
ideal pairing because it knows how keep you in complete control.
This is a true modern classic with features like power steering,
sway bars front & rear, and four-wheel disc brakes that include
ABS.
Complete with a reproduction window sticker, owner's manual, and
original warranty card, a performance-built modern classic like
this rarely is so affordable. So you know how fast you have to act
to get it in your driveway.
