I can't imagine it having anything less than 400HP. Downgrading the HP from the current GTOs wouldn't be smart IMO.

Fiction. They aren't working together. Could they? Anything is possible. Will it happen? Not likely at all.

You can let your friends know that the only thing Saleen and GM have done together is build two Bumblebees for a movie. That's it.

I know what you mean. I'm going by the very reliable info I have obtained which contradicts what that article said. Still, it's GM's call on who they work with.

I hope not

personally I hope that they dont work together, I own 2 Mustangs, and am trying to get rid of them, and all of my wifes family loves ford, I dont think that I could handle hearing them all the time " Well at least Saleen worked on the Mustangs first, now they are just looking for sloppy seconds."

I like the idea of GM and Saleen working together because they will have proven performance parts that you can buy later when the pocktbook allows for major upgrades.

Theres no reason to argue over anything.NOBODY knows for sure until its publically released.I will offer my opinion .
The car will most likely be available in mid 08 as an 09 model year.I believe this is true specially due to the styling matching the 69. I can see the commercials now " 40 years ago blah blah blah introdicing the new camaro on its 40th anniversary blah blah blah"

I also dont believe if saleen had the information,they would be at liberty to talk about ANYTHING.Im calling the BS flag on that too...............some internet crap to keep us guessing.Im guessing a 6cy model,ls2@400 or so HP and then something to compete with shelby 500........

In order to look foward, you must look backwards in the U.S. car business these days.History always repeats itself.........


ford mustang styling also gt 500, ford 500
chrysler 300s,challenger,daytona,charger,ect
chevrolet silverado c1500 ect

Ditto. But having it be an 09 model would make it a 42nd anniversay edition. If it were an 07, it would be the 40th annv. I agree that would be pretty cool, though.

I think that thing w/ Saleen was him doing some wishful thinking or some computer user trying to have some fun. As of two months ago, there was only one company whom GM was planning on working w/ and it wasn't Saleen.
