Saleen's 800 HP S302 Black Label Mustang Is Up For Grabs
Dubbed "Blazing Fury," this S302 Black Label is a former magazine test car and pace car.
Blazing Fury
Saleen has been building ultra-powerful, ultra-capable Mustangs since the Fox Body era, and continues to crank out some amazing machines to this day. Case in point - the S302 Black Label, an 800 horsepower, supercharged beast of a car. This particular example is a bit more special, however, as it served as a magazine test car and pace car for the Saleen Cup Racing Series. Now, this special Black Label, dubbed "Blazing Fury" is up for grabs in a charity auction over at America's Automotive Trust.

Looks and Performance
Finished in Orange Fury tri-coat pain, this particular car also sports Saleen's Black Label package, which is the top-of-the-line offering with pretty much every performance part the tuner can throw at it. It's an amazing-looking thing to be sure, but the car's performance is even more impressive.

Maximum Fun
That's because the S302 Black Label is powered by a fortified version of Ford's 5.0-liter Coyote V8. A giant supercharger up top helps fuel most of the engine's gains, allowing it to belt out an impressive 800 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque. Mated to a six-speed manual transmission, that power flows to the rear wheels for maximum fun.

Upscale Cabin
Inside, the S302 Black Label features a host of upgrades as well, including a full black leather and charcoal Alcantara interior with lots of Saleen embroidery and badging. The overall appearance here is far different than the average Mustang GT, and quite a bit more upscale.

To the Ground
Underneath, a Saleen R-Code suspension upgrade includes a host of bits from Racecraft, giving the Black Label what it needs to put all 800 horsepower to the ground effectively. A special oil cooler helps out on the track, while a custom 3-inch exhaust lets the fortified Coyote sing its glorious song at full throttle.

Unique Look
On the outside, 20-inch Saleen wheels fill up the wheel wells and make room for a larger set of rubber, which is sorely needed given this car's power output. Throw on a set of carbon fiber ground effects and special Saleen body parts, and it looks like no other Mustang out there, either.

Pass It On
Blazing Fury is indeed a one-of-a-kind Mustang with a bevy of upgrades, making it a truly desirable machine, especially given its star-studded history. Thus, we can't think of a better way to pass it on to a new owner than through a charitable raffle.
