Whats so special about Shelbys, and Saleens?

You don't know much about Mustangs do ya. Oh well everyone has to learn sometime.

Carrol Shelby was the MAN back in the 60's. He created some of the greatest Mustangs ever made like the 67 GT500, 67 Super Snake, and the 68 GT500 KR.

Steve Saleen is like a modern day Carrol Shelby. He has also made some wonderful Mustangs like the S289, S351, and the king of Saleen Mustangs the SR.

Both Shelby, and Saleen Mustangs are more powerful, look better, made in fewer numbers, and cost more than a GT or V6. Thats why people seem to talk more about these cars.
