The nice part now as opposed to the 2007 Stage 3 is that the front facia is refined and not so large and heavy looking, and the body kit now offers real aerodynamic improvements all around the car, in particular the rear diffuser. The 07 just gave you the stock rear facia.

Suspension wise, since the initial suspension and chassis stiffening is better in the 2013 Mustang initially anyway, the balanced improvements really make the car a level above any previous model for Roush in handling for sure. The items they add really make the suspension and chassis improved in accordance to the criticisms the Mustang still received last year vs the M3.

The power is great considering this car is still 120lbs lighter than the GT500, so 565HP is really 577 HP in equivalence. Although only 505 torque is pretty lame. The new blower technology comes with better cooling, less weight, and more efficient boost per psi, not to mention better fuel economy per psi than previously. Better brakes than ever too.

I'd be curious what the cost of a fully fit out Stage 3 Roush costs compared to the new 2013 GT500? I think this car looks much better than the stock car and at least as good as the Shelby 1000 or GT500. I'd buy it for the right price. Erik
