Suprised this hasnt really been talked about. I did a search and didnt see it in the forums sorry if it is a repost



The third Roush Mustang model since 2007 to carry the badge, which is a tribute to the famed P-51 Mustang fighter plane of World War Two, it punches out 542kW (727hp) from a 5.0-litre Ford Racing Aluminator V8 crate engine that’s been boosted with a Roush Phase 2 supercharger.

I cant find anything else. They showed it on Tuesday but nothing as far as any other from the press release.

I've always been disappointed with their warbird series of carss. Typically they look good from a performance perspective but severely lacking in the aesthetic department.

Other warbird cars have a direct visual connection to their aviation counterparts. This one has always been pretty tame. Probably the reason you haven't heard too much about it is that it's just background noise with all the other cars at SEMA.

^This plus they look like every other Roush vehicle they build. Same parts, new paint, no big deal.

actually the spoiler is different on the p51. it's like twice the size of a roush spoiler.

The dudes on instagram that get the custom wrap jobs are way cooler. Too lazy to look any of them up right now, but there are some way cooler P-51 tributes from the S197 boys.

I unfortunately cannot easily find the Mustang that I'm looking for, but here's a Ferrari with a cool war bird wrap. There's a similar one that's Insta-famous.

Yeah,....looks like your everyday Roush Stage 3 with only slight differences. Not much thought put into this one. :shrug:

would like to see the P51 Mustang in person. However kinda agree there wasn't really any hype with the car. Even watching Jack Roush JR. unveiling the car, it was hard to watch (Granted don't think he is that personable).

Even though the Mustang got the Hottest Car award, wasn't really excited about the cars
