Really liking the Roush mustangs more and more. Stage 3 looks really good imo.

Anyone order/considering it?

If anyone's interested in a Roush S550, I have a pretty big Roush dealer just down the road from me that I think has a pretty good stock of EBs.

I think it's pretty expensive for what you get. The side door vents are really tacky since they don't really add function at all.

The worst part is that they charge you what is it 6k for a few things but they end up selling the original parts of your mustang.
They sell those parts for penny's on the dollar if you wait till the roush garage sale every year in livonia

Its a $6000 appearance package and you dont even get everything with that. Terrible deal in my opinion

This. Take a close look at the picture on their website - then start reading through the core components list. "Where are the wheels... oh... they're extra".

[edit] its not until the Stage 2 where the price jumps to $9K and then the wheels and exhaust get added. But not the active exhaust system - just the plain quad tips.

Nice overview. Would have been nice to have heard what the exhaust sounds like with those quad tips a bit more.

"from the outside you would never ever know that this vehicle has anything less than a 5.0 V8 engine in it."

Until the engine starts or smart enough to know the badging of "RS1" or maybe the Ecoboost PP wheels are a giveaway.

Want people to take the EB seriously? Stop saying things like, "I really don't even like calling this a 4 cylinder". Oh yeah? Then what would you call it? An even numbered cylinder engine?

It's rather telling that in those 12 minutes he probably spent a minute and a half talking about Roush. The other 10.5 minutes were talking about the Ecoboost. I've never been able to convince myself any of there packages were worth it, and this with the fake vents and what not is just too much. Ford just stopped with the silly fake vents, maybe Roush should consider it as well.

I love the way the car looks but I could never justify the price for a couple body panels. The stock car already looks great.
