Default New Saleen Mustang to have 500HP

Saleens Official Website

Under the hood of every S281 is a high-performance 4.6-liter V8 engine. In the 3-Valve model this engine produces 325 horsepower. In, the supercharged S281 SC the horsepower leaps to 400. And for the S281 E, which will be introduced next spring, the engine produces a mind-boggling 500 horsepower. Now you know why the E in the name stands for Extreme.

holy shit

More than $45k I guess

So much for Mustang being the cheap fast car :bbb:
