How do these guys justify asking someone to pay that much for a car that at the end of the day is still a Mustang. They aren't bad cars but over 50K they just aren't worth it. JMO.

Unless you have some new springs/shocks and new brakes those S281E's could really surprise you.

Stock brakes, stock shocks, stock springs. And I would still not worry about an S281E on the track or roadcourse. Z06's are just to light, and considering mine accelerates quicker than a S281E I think it would be a rough day for the Mustang.

Do you know much about the S281E's? Stock suspension and you think you can handle it?...WOW.

I know about them pretty well, used to drive a Mustang and know the exact specs of that car. Rated@475 flywheel, dyno 420 or so, I am at 437 and weight like 500 pounds less. I have 13" Brakes stock, and 3220 RACEWEIGHT aint much weight to stop either. As far as the suspension they are not really comparable, unless they use the 99-04 IRS, but Im 99% sure it is just a strait axle 8.8 with maybe some adjustable suspension parts and good brakes.

I wasn't refering to power, but suspension. I'm not very familiar with road racing, I'll be the first to admit that, but doesnt' the low end TQ of the Extreme fair better coming out of a turn?...Maybe I'm just ignorant to your setup as well.

They did use a solid axle, but if you think a solid setup can't be built to handle corners....you are soarly mistaken. Carrol Shelby himself has stated IRS isn't necessary given you can make a Solid rear handle just as well. It's all in knowledge of your setup.

An no offense, but 'used to drive a mustang' doesn't mean you know about all of them. Hell....I have owned seven mustangs in total, but I dont' know everything about stangs.

Rated at 550 at the flywheel for the 06+ models last I checked and dyno a bit more than a stock C6ZO6.
Does have a SRA 8.8" and with 14" slotted and vented 4 piston front brakes.

I was thinking New edge's so I didn't comment on his 475. I'm thinking he was too.

Probably. When I think of Saleen though I never think of the New Edge's for whatever reason...
For reference, the 05 S281E was rated at 500bhp and the 06+ were rated at 550bhp and 490?lb-ft.

Have you ever been over to Corvette Forum? I'd say it's accurate just knowing how they are over there. They also have a stock C6 ZO6 that ran a 10.98.
