Hi! I am selling my all original 2002 Mustang Saleen S281 number 213. I purchased it for my father for his 70th birthday in 2010 so he is 2nd owner. Clean Carfax, though it will show 3 owners, though I purchased it from the original owner, which makes me the 2nd, and gifted it to my father, which makes him the 3rd. 

The car is autographed by Steve Saleen on the glovebox in the interior, as well on the radiator housing under the hood.

2002 estimate number's with these options for this year Saleen are:

Mineral Gray Metallic was offered by Ford Motor Company during the 2001, 2002 and 2005 production years. It was offered with either charcoal or parchment interior colors.

The estimate for Saleen Mustang 2002 production is 181. S281 models were completed in Mineral exterior color. Of those, 101 were S281 Supercharged models. Of those, 55 were coupes. Of those, 53 had charcoal interior. Of those, 52 had a charcoal interior.

It's always been garage covered and stored, as well as always started every month as well as driven so it doesn't just sit there (no winter driving.) 

This is the first time I've posted a vehicle on Autotrader since they actually made a printed copy you could make at the gas station, so forgive me if I am leaving anything out. So feel free to ask me any questions. 

I have all original paperwork, including window sticker. It had 3 best of show trophies that I had placed out at a show, but accidentally ran them over. Ooops! I can throw in one of my dad's bowling or softball trophies!

Only premium fuel has been placed in the car. Never abused. The photo of 6,999 miles is original. I have no idea how I was able to capture it at that exact time. However at this time, it has a slightly higher mileage around 8k and will slightly increase as it's listed.

Main reason selling, we both somehow have bad left knees, which makes shifting the clutch painful over some time. I really hate to see it go. I have a video for my dad's surprise that will keep it in my memories. Plus we moved more up north in Michigan, where there aren't too many car shows. There is a photo at a dealership that was having a show. Ours was the only Saleen and all original Mustang there, which was kind of cool. We had quite a few people taking photos of it.

I would say this is my favorite color, with the bright blue being a close 2nd. 

I did state it's all original, but on the bumper the letters "Saleen" are actually a decal. The muffler is a Borla exhaust, however I retained the OEM muffler tips. It adds just enough "growl" to it, without it being obnoxious. I kept everything OEM. Especially the stereo. I only buy OEM things. As soon as I see the radio has been changed out, I move on. But that's just me!

I do have a couple extras. New headlamps as the original fade over time (though these are still excellent condition. But I think the ones I purchased have LED lighting and they are plug and play. Unfortunately though, I "think" they have clear corners, and not amber, so I never put them on. The 2nd, which is also plug and play, is for the rear taillights that turn them into the newer style that make them blink back and forth. I love how they do that, but again I like to keep my things OEM so I never installed them and wasn't planning on selling it. But from the video it looks so easy and you plan on driving it a bit, I'd probably put them in. It's just another plug and play harness.

I thought I mentioned it, but maybe not. I have all original paperwork. It's in a photo, but I guess if I don't describe it, you may not know what it is.

Hopefully this answers most, if not all questions. But feel free to message me if not!

It is rust free, and no joy rides. And hopefully when I get off work and my batteries are charged for the car I can update those.

If you are not local and decide to have it shipped, that is not a task I can handle, so shipping will have to be arranged by you.

Payment options can be discussed as well. PayPal down payment and other methods can be discussed. They only give you so many options to choose from.

Thank you!
