The Original Saleen Mustang S281 Extreme

The Saleen Mustang S281 Extreme belongs to the fifth generation of the Ford Mustang, which was produced from 2005 to 2014. This generation of the Mustang was a significant step in terms of design and performance, inspired by the classic Mustangs of the 1960s. The S281 Extreme variant received extensive modifications from the company Saleen. Founded in 1983 in the USA, Saleen has since been known for their high-performance and customized vehicles. The S281 Extreme was developed to satisfy demanding car enthusiasts by offering performance, design, and a unique driving experience.
