We have, however, found a Saleen Mustangs built for the first Transformers film in 2007 on sale. MotoeXotica of St. Louis has built three of these cars and this is the second one to be auctioned off. In the movie the Mustang plays the role of Barricade, a Decepticon that captures Sam Witwicky and brings him to Megatron, the villainous robot in this movie.
The Mustang features all the Saleen trinkets such a car needs, including a "3V modified" engine, 5-speed manual tranny, 20 inch alloys as well as exterior, suspension and exhaust upgrades. A bull-bar was later added on the set of the movie to make it look meaner.
Bidding is currently at $35,600, which is under the undisclosed reserve placed on the car. Right now, there are only 1 day and 14 hour left to bid so you’d better hurry.
If you are concerned about the state of the car, MotoeXotica say that “the paint on the car is nearly perfect with no major imperfections. The car has been well taken care of throughout the movie as well as after. Decals are all in good condition and not peeling off. The tires all have good tread life left on them and the wheels are free of any scuffs or curb rash.”
The car also only has 7,200 miles (11,587 km) on the clock an is fully street legal.
