We started to look for my first car using the daily paper to search for bargain but I decided that my next car needed to be a new car and not only new but one of the American great muscle cars of the 21st century. The new saleen mustangs were priced in my price range and I certainly liked what I sore. It was the old classic shape of the 1970’s mustangs but with a new motor, new color schemes and a revamped dash display. So what was the next step? I looked online and found the style I was looking for, the one with the fast back look and the perfect mustang color. The all new 2007 Saleen / Parnelli Jones Limited Edition Mustang which was designer orange with black racing stripes.
This limited edition monster was fully decked out with the big block 302 hemi 400 bhp engine, quick shift automatic or 6 speed manual gearboxes. It has the standard letterbox blower sitting on the engine mount and the classic louvers across the back window. Personally I think I will take the louvers off because they make it look a little cheap. It comes with 14 inch wheel trims, leather reclining seats and complete climate control. They have standard power steering and front and rear disc brakes for performance and handling benefits. But most of all it comes with a supercharged engine that will blow most other cars out of the water.
I brought the car right after my first test drive because I was totally in love with it. Amazing how a car can make you feel so young and happy but the saleen mustang certainly helped my regain my lost youth by always showing me a good time. I have quite a few speeding tickets now so I must start to drive a bit safer however when you drive a machine like this it is difficult to not to test its capabilities and put the pedal to the metal.
