We are excited to announce the opening of the very first Saleen Experience Center in Shanghai! The store and showroom is the first of its kind and includes a large showroom displaying Saleen Original vehicles, accessories, and more along with highlight’s from Steve’s racing career. The store also features a unique restaurant where customers are served drinks by a robotic bartender, and a private club exclusive to Saleen owners.
This race car competed in the 1987-1988 SCCA Escort Endurance Championship, enabling the General Tire sponsored Saleen team, consisting of Steve Saleen and Rick Titus, to win the coveted Driver’s Championship, as well as the Manufacturer’s Championship for Saleen and Ford Motor Company. This vehicle marks a significant improvement in the development of the Saleen Mustang. Power increases to 225HP, and 5 lug, 4 wheel disc brakes became standard equipment. In 1988 the team went on to an impressive 1-2-3 finish at the 24 Hours of Mosportin Ontario, Canada.
Steve sets 13 track records and ultimately wins the 1977 Pacific Coast Championship, and then goes on to compete against the likes of Gilles Villeneuve, Keke Rosberg, Bobby Rahal, and Danny Sullivan in Formula Atlantic. The March 76B is known amongst racers as “fast and twitchy” and is powered by a Ford Cosworth Engine, and transfers power to the wheels through a Hewland FT-200 gearbox.

Dealer Comments:
This 1989 Ford Mustang Saleen SSC with 11K Miles is for Sale. Number #168 for the Saleen SSC production in 1989. A true collector to have and looks even better in person. The Saleen SSC is powered by a 5.0L V8 with 5 Speed manual transmission. The interior has the Two Leather FloFit seating and still looks new.
Back in 1989 the Saleen SSC was the unofficial 25th Anniversary Mustang that Steve Saleen produced. There were suppose to be 250 vehicles produced, but only 161 was made and all SSC’s were a hatchback in 1989. Check out video below and ready for you today.
Seeing the need for a true “Driver’s Car” Saleen launches the Saleen 1 –the first all-original Saleen vehicle since the S7.
This mid-engined, two seat, independent suspension vehicle is the next generation of a true sports car. Featuring an all aluminum light weight chassis combined with a carbon fiber body results in an impressive vehicle weight of less than 2700 lbs.
The Saleen designed, turbocharged inline, 4-cylinder with unique split block engine produces 450HP. The combined horsepower and lightweight chassis yields supercar performance.
The Saleen SportruckXR takes off-roading to a new high. Based off the F-150, Saleen engineered a truck that is Baja capable, but also daily drivable. The entire suspension and steering systems are reworked with components custom built by Saleen for off-road use and durability.
In keeping with Saleen tradition the supercharging system boosts the horsepower to 700HP on a 5.0L V8. Saleen designed bumpers and unique wide body fenders further separates this truck from the pack.
In 2015, Ford debuts its sixth generation Ford Mustang (S550). With a fully redesigned body, independent rear suspension and a host of other upgrades, Saleen raises the performance bar to even higher levels.
In current Black Label trim, horsepower reaches a class-leading 800HP. Further accentuating the new body work is Saleen’s exclusive carbon fiber air management system. Our unique design reduces frontal drag, while creating maximum down force for better handling. An all new alcantara/leather interior adds to the overall luxury and performance of this latest model.
The custom paint featured (California Sunset) was developed at a tribute to Paul Walker.
Saleen celebrates 30 years of business with its limited edition SA30 model.
Finished in a special paint called “Tire Smoke White Pearl,” the SA-30 maintains the Saleen tradition of white, yellow, and black paint hues. The 625 HP is courtesy of a double overhead cam 302 cid, V8, with a Saleen twin screw supercharger. Fully functional hood mounted butterfly valves feed cool air in to the engine compartment based off accelerator position.This model also includes the first of the electronic controlled all-glass roof, as well as rear seat delete, with matching spare wheel.
Only 10 units of this highly coveted model were produced.
In 2007, Hollywood contacts Saleen for his expertise to produce movie vehicles for the upcoming “Transformers” movie. They request a really mean cop car that can live up to its “To Punish and Enslave” moniker. Saleen produces “Barricade” using his S281 Mustang and outfits it with the necessary law enforcement accouterments.
Unlike many movie vehicles, “Barricade” is a fully functional and drivable vehicle. This is one of two vehicles specially built for the “Transformers” movie, the other being “Bumblebee” the Camaro. Steve personally picked the shade of yellow for Bumblebee, which was not a GM color at the time.
With the release of the fifth generation Mustang “S197” in 2005, Saleen takes his styling to another level.
Dramatic innovations such as HID headlights and a unique new scenic glass roof developed in-house at Saleen, along with new aerodynamics and engine modifications prove popular with the public, setting new sales records.
Steve’s daughter, Molly, had this custom 2007 Saleen Mustang colored candy pink, specifically mixed to her liking. The reaction to this one-off color was so popular, we now offer it as a special order color.
