Default Saleen

So today at school I see this Red mustang i do belive it was a 2003 -2004. i get closer and notice its a Saleen. But this is were it gets interesting, It was an automatic, does Saleen even make automatics? i didnt think they did. It could have been a regualr mustang with the saleen body kit. If it was then it sure did fool me

hey man, hows that job goin' btw?

Can you also get an auto with the Supercharged and Extreme versions????

If so, is it a built auto so it can with stand that power?

that doesnt answer my question. There's two supercharged Saleen's. S281supercharged and S281 Extreme. They are 2 different superchargers.

Does the automatic that comes with the Extremes and/or S281 supercharged.... is that the regular auto that comes with the base Saleen or is the auto built to with stand that power

They would have to build the tranny cuz the new saleens have like 500+ HP and the GT auto tranny only holds up to 450HP.
