Description

Steve Saleen always knew how to get the most out of the Mustang's style and performance. This 2004 Ford Mustang Saleen S281SC convertible is aggressive and elegant in its full midnight package. And there's supercharged V8 performance to back it up the speedy appearance. So it's amazing you can something so rare and intimidating for such an affordable price.

Saleens have a nice options list and a hand-crafting facility, and so ordering one from them is can be like getting a one-of-a-kind. In fact, we have a letter from them certifying that this is a 1 of 1 creation! But it's more than just uniqueness that attracted you to this one. The factory black is a deep modern clearcoat, so it has an impressive hard shine – exactly what you want in a sunshine-friendly droptop like this. Add in the black folding roof and black American Muscle wheels (originals come with the sale, too) and you have a great midnight total package. But the overall presentation will never slip through the darkness unnoticed. It's 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 with center exhaust. And even the details are aggressive like the gills in the quarter panels, Saleen graphics, and the deeply sculpted heat extractor hood. A great Saleen hallmark is to note the serial number right on front.

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, dual airbags, and factory AM/FM/CD stereo. 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. And 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 leather bucket seats upgraded with Saleen embroidery, a Mustang sports steering wheel, and Saleen special white-faced gauges.

The "SC" in this car's designation is quite significant. It took the original 4.6-liter V8 and added a Saleen Series IV twin screw supercharger on top. And this is more than just a bolt-on piece. The included Saleen window sticker details how they take Ford's hardy modular V8 and turn it into a growling 375 horsepower street-eating machine. Linked to a sweet-shifting five-speed that's stout enough to handle all the extra power, the true fun of this Mustang is always in your hands. Plus, Saleens always excel is in the handling department, and the S281 package got a comprehensive Racecraft suspension upgrade that includes new springs, struts, and a larger front sway bar. Combine this with four-wheel disc brakes and BF Goodrich gForce rubber to give it the kind of grip to rival far more expensive exotics.
