Saleen Automotive
is celebrating its 35th anniversary by introducing a limited edition Mustang
called the SA 35. Based on the 2019 Black Label Mustang, the SA 35 has an eye
catching black exterior with yellow and white accents. The car has also been
equipped with a ram air hood, a new front bumper and a small rear wing.
Rounding out the exterior styling changes are new fenders, a sports exhaust
system and mono-block forged aluminum wheels which are wrapped in General G-Max
tires.
Saleen didn’t say
much about the interior, but the sketch suggests the model will have black
leather seats with white contrast stitching and a yellow stripe down the
center. The tri-color design is also echoed on the door panels.
Additional changes
are limited, but appear to include special floor mats, Saleen badging and a
revised infotainment system with a Saleen splash screen. Power is provided by a
5.0-liter V8 engine that has been equipped with a supercharger. It enables the
mill to produce 780 hp and 853 Nm of torque.
While the car
likely features an assortment of performance upgrades, the only other thing
that Saleen mentioned was a Racecraft R Code suspension. In a statement, Steven
Saleen said “We were extremely proud to introduce the SA 35 to our friends,
family and enthusiasts. It celebrates and validates the continuing success and
longevity of the Saleen brand.”
There’s no word on
pricing, but production will be limited to 10 units. The company has already
built a prototype of the model and it was recently shown at their open house
which took place earlier this month.
