This 2008 Ford Mustang Saleen Dan Gurney Edition embodies the
spirit of its namesake's 1967 Le Mans victory. With reports
suggesting fewer than 70 units produced, it's as rare as Gurney's
champagne-spraying celebration atop the podium. This supercharged
pony car commands respect and is cloaked in striking blue paint
reminiscent of Gurney's All-American Racers livery. Its aggressive
stance is amplified by 19" MMR wheels wrapped in massive 295/30R19
front and 325/30ZR19 rear tires, providing a footprint worthy of
Gurney's Le Mans-winning Ford GT40. A Saleen body kit with Tasca
590 effects and a #58 chin spoiler - a nod to Gurney's Indy car
number - add to its muscular presence, while hood pins give it that
extra touch of racing authenticity.
Step inside, and you're transported to a cockpit that blends luxury
with the focused intensity of Gurney's Indy 500 machines. Black
leather seats with suede center sections offer style and support,
ready for high-speed cornering or cruising down the boulevard. The
dashboard houses Saleen-specific gauges, providing crucial
performance data at a glance - just like the instruments Gurney
relied on during his four Indy 500 victories. A Gurney Eagle emblem
adorns the center of the steering wheel, a constant reminder of the
racing legend's successful car manufacturing venture. Steve
Saleen's signature adds another layer of motorsport pedigree to
this exclusive ride.
Lift the hood, and you'll find an engine that channels Gurney's
innovative spirit at Daytona. The 4.6-liter V8, supercharged by
Saleen, delivers a neck-snapping performance worthy of Gurney's
Daytona-winning cars. The engine bay showcases power and precision,
featuring a Tasco racing mass airflow system and meticulous wiring
that would impress even Gurney's eagle-eyed mechanics. Power is
sent to the rear wheels through a slick-shifting 5-speed manual
transmission and a Ford 8.8" rear end with a 3.73 gear ratio,
providing acceleration that evokes memories of Gurney's
lightning-fast starts at Daytona. The suspension has been upgraded
with Saleen coilovers and rear panhard bars, ensuring this Mustang
handles the curves with the same aplomb Gurney showed on road
courses. Bringing this powerhouse to a halt are power disc brakes
on all four corners, offering stopping power that would've made
Gurney proud.
