Transformers “Barricade” Saleen Mustang Police Car

January 13, 2010 by Justin  

Remember the Saleen Mustang police car from Transformers, nicknamed Barricade? The Mustang didn’t get much publicity, definitely not as much publicity as the 2010 Camaro. To be honest with you I thought the Saleen Mustang looked sweeter in the movie. The “to punish and enslave” slogan on the Saleen Mustang made my day, that was just plain sweat. I bet that cracked a lot of people up in the theater.

So I wonder what happen to the Saleen Mustang used in the movie. Well, I did a little of my own research, come to find out there were only three Mustangs made for Transformers. I found a post on Auto Blog stating that one 2005 Saleen Mustang ended up only selling for $36k. Yeah only $36, that’s a far cry from the $100,000 – $300,000 declared estimated value. Whoever bought the movie prop made out with one hell of a deal. The Mustang started out as an auction for only $1k, then eventually made it’s way up to $30k. The $6k was a buyer’s premium, the auction can still be found here.

I have to say I’m really jealous, if I would of known this Mustang was up for sale I would of definitely put in a bid. This is definitely a big piece of Mustang history. Oh well, I just hope the new owner keeps Barricade in good shape. Last thing I want to see is the car at the bottom of the sea with the rest of the Decepticons.

I posted some good aftermath video footage and pictures of the Saleen Mustang. I almost forgot to mention, the Mustang only had 4,550 miles on the odometer. I’m super jealous!
