As long as folks are enjoying themselves... that's all that matters. I know when this thread receives a new post... it gets spied on with a "look what they're saying now" comment.

Regardless on how folks want to cut it. SS was a fairly important component to the cars we celebrate. There where various financial backers, people working in the parts department, engineers, marketers, sales people etc. As a collective they worked to create a whole over the 25 years.

SS is a great marketer. He knows what his cars should be, resonate on sight and could explain in reasonable fashion to the auto scribes and public why we should care.

People who purchased the cars felt they where not only buying an enthusiasts car, but buying into a family atmosphere. One could see this with the files ASC/Saleen dumped out of Irvine on their move to Troy. Various letters, photos, updates written by owners about their Saleens and family. Material 10-15+ years old... but still dumped as garbage. Some purchased these as cars and used them as such, others made their Saleen a family member and felt a connection to share the trials, tribulations, joys and adventure with their Saleen vehicle.

The 2010 MJA/SPV S281 is an interesting Mustang, but at the end of the day... there was more going on then building a cool car.

My only worry for MJA/SPV... is if they listen to the wrong voices about who the owners and enthusiasts are as well as what drives these folks into the purchase of an unnecessary toy.
