Saleen Racecraft 420S. Looks like a budget Saleen. Under 40K, nice.

Saleen to Promote RACECRAFT Brand


In a recent letter to dealers, Saleen, Inc. introduced a new intiiative revolving around the "RaceCraft" brand, previously for components, but now for both components and vehicles.

"Today's competitive marketplace has created unprecedented challenges. In listening to your Saleen dealer needs we are introducing a new brand of performance products, fully warranted at a more competitive price point," the communication began.

Perhaps one of the most underutilized pieces of Saleen intellectual property, "The Racecraft brand is a recognized trademark of Saleen associated with performance products. Racecraft will be offered to all Saleen Dealers and approximately 1000 select Ford dealers across the US," mentioned the communication.

Under the RaceCraft name, the first product to be introduced will be the 420S Mustang, which features a twin screw Supercharger, Racecraft suspension, unique graphics, short throw shifter, special interior appointments and an 18 inch wheel and tire upgrade, for an MSRP of $38.995, including freight and gas guzzler tax.

The Dealer letter also noted that, "Within the year, the Racecraft brand will also include a performance derivative of the Focus with a target price around $20,000 MSRP."

Among the features to be included with the new RaceCraft car are:
  • Racecraft 4.6L SOHC Supercharged V-8
  • Horsepower: 420 @ 5800 RPM
  • Torque: 400 ft.-lbs. @ 4000 RPM
  • 39 lb. fuel injectors
  • 98 mm mass airflow sensor
  • hi-flow inlet tube and air box cover
  • Performance air filter
  • Racecraft specific rate front and rear coil springs
  • Racecraft front struts (N2)
  • Racecraft rear shocks (N2)
  • Racecraft front sway bar and pivot bushings
  • Bridgestone Potenza All-Season Performance Radial Tires
  • 18”x9” Front and 18”x10” Rear Aluminum Alloy ‘Torque Blade’ wheels
  • Racecraft exterior badging
  • Racecraft logo side rocker graphics
  • Racecraft ‘420S’ performance vinyl hood graphics
  • Racecraft rear decklid graphics
  • Racecraft 180 MPH silver faced speedometer with MyColor feature
  • Satin aluminum instrument panel upgrade
  • Racecraft steering wheel badge
  • Leather-wrapped steering wheel
  • Leather wrapped billet aluminum shift knob
  • Leather shift boot
  • Performance cloth seats with Racecraft embroidered headrest

considering what it's on... yeah. plus it doesn't have the bars that come out of the side of the star, so it doesn't look as good on the roof of the stang as it does on an a A10 or F14, etc

I seriously was/am doing a P51 esq type deal for muh mustang. I am putting actual detail into it though. Like this:



following color schemes and such. Was going to put a flag as the headliner, only like an original colonies 13 stars in a circle or the "don't tread on me" up there... I showed you all my paint pump "the money maker" but I will again



something along those lines. I don't want MY idea being played out, hopefully these are small numbers and noone sees them

Saleen did some tweeks to the 2009 S models. New grille, new hood vents, new windshield graphics, and new wheels. There is also a new model codenamed "Widow Maker" coming out later this year. The S281 Supercharged will be replaced with the S302 Supercharged putting out 580hp on a built 5.0L engine.
