Hey Transformers fans — here’s your chance to put a Decepticon in your driveway. Or at least a Saleen Mustang done up to look like one.
Fans of the
Transformers movie will know that Barricade was a hunter-scout for the Decepticons. Tuner-extraordinaire Steve Saleen customized three 2005 Saleen S281 Mustangs for the role, and one of them has turned up on eBay. According to the guys selling it, this is Barricade No. 2. It was used primarily as a camera car and as such “was heavily screen used in the movie.”
Since it’s a Saleen, the engine’s been tweaked, the body’s been tweaked, the interior’s been tweaked and it’s liberally slathered with carbon fiber. The interior is cherry and the car’s got loads of LED police lights and a big honkin’ push bar.
As far as we can tell it doesn’t actually transform into a 18-foot-tall robot, which sucks because that would make our morning commute a whole lot more fun.
