Nice article from Road & Track...

WHICH BRINGS US TO MY PICK: 1984 TO 1993 SALEEN MUSTANGS.

Which brings us to my pick: 1984 to 1993 Saleen Mustangs. Steve Saleen, just like Carroll Shelby, was a professional racer that turned manufacturer. And his championship-winning race team stocked with Saleen Mustangs lends the racing heritage that is always a value-adding component. Plus, like any small manufacturer, Saleen Mustangs were built in minuscule numbers, making any of them rare. Every one was serialized and can also be documented through Saleen today, whic lends them another similarity to Shelby Mustangs.

But all of this would mean nothing if the Fox-body Saleen Mustangs were all smoke and mirrors. Rest assured they are not. With a significantly improved suspension, brakes, and upgraded interior trim and exterior styling, they are indeed the 1965/1966 GT350s of the 1980s. And just like those Shelbys that were quite inexpensive even in the 1990s, the Saleen prices of today will seem ridiculously cheap in the next 10 years.
