Saleen showcased the all new 2011 S302 based off of the 2011 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 at the Carlisle Ford Nationals in Carlisle, Pennsylvania over the weekend. This bad-boy is pushing out slightly more power than the normal 5.0-liter (412hp/390lb-ft tq), at 425 horsepower and 395 lb-ft of torque, will be at dealerships in the coming weeks.

The 2011 Saleen S302 will also feature a Saleen Performance exhaust system, Racecraft suspension upgrades, six-speed manual transmission with LSD and a 3.73:1 final drive ratio. To top off the styling of the S302 it will include a new hood, grill, side skirts, front and rear fascias and a rear wing. The S302 will be rolling on 20-inch Saleen Speedster seven-spoked chrome alloy wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero Rosso rubber.

Inside of the Saleen S302 you will find new leather buckets with Ultrasuede inserts, a piano black center console, revised gauges and a leather-wrapped shifter.
