Thread: 2010 Saleen SMS-460 Mustang

Looks like its been released and ready...



found an article on it and more pics here

check the order guide from SMS with prices starting at $65K coupe and $70K covertible

SMS Limited is Steve Saleen's new company.

SMS has not released any cars yet because they are still going thru the CERT proccess amongst many other things. They have sold maybe a couple promo's but as for the Mustang and the Challenger, they are still a ways away.

Looks nice. But to me just seems a little pricey for a modern mustang.

Ugh... 65K+ you can get something so much better for that price. Guess its for the Mustang Enthusiast cuz I can't stand stangs.

Too bad a series of poor management decisions drove the former Saleen into the ground. After creating the late-model Mustang performance segment, they completely lost touch with their audience and their customers. As far as I'm concerned, all recent model Saleen’s have been too much about bling and lifestyle and fell short in the performance area. Yeah, sure, anyone can throw on a supercharger on and make impressive horsepower stats…great to impress some naïve auto enthusiasts, but how does the car really handle? Compare it to a base Mustang GT and of course it’s better, but try comparing it to a world class sports car – like a Ferrari, Vette, Viper or Porsche. Saleen needs to get back to its road racing roots and substantially improve on track performance. Griggs Racing Products (Petaluma, CA), is a small niche Mustang suspension/chassis company that offers parts for those that want to build your own track worthy car and they also offer the GR40, a complete turn-key car that would destroy any Saleen/Roush/Shelby on the track. Their product is far superior…truly a confidence-inspiring ride! On a closed road course the GR40TT (street legal) pulled 1.55 G’s…amazing! Check them out at Griggs Racing GR40. Match it up against any other Mustang tuner and there simply is no comparison in cornering, braking, overall ride quality, road handling manners….and lap times! Maybe Saleen should take care of the styling and leave the chassis to the experts…Griggs Racing Products. I say, go Griggs...or go home!

I hate the backend of the 2010 Mustang,But I love it on this, It looks more aggressive.

Same price as a factory GT 500...

griggs stuff is awesome but also comes at a hefty price for a "mustang" the base model gr40st "street" model starts at 50 the GR40TT"track" version is 63,900 and the top model GR40RT "race" model comes in at 84,900< I love mustangs and are the only cars I have owned but wouldn't pay that much for one.
