Is a 2001 Stage II Roush Mustang worth looking at?
I was originally looking for a straight up Mustang GT when I stumbled onto this one on autotrader today with 42,000 miles, but I'm not very familiar with them and know little about Roush performance Mustangs.
Do you guys think it's something I should look into?
I'm also a little hesitant on the price, $10,000.
Which seemed pretty low to me, a little too low I though.
Which is why I'm doing a little investigating first. I also noticed that the headers were upgraded when I thought stage II is only supposed to be a suspension and handling upgrade.

I just don't want something that is too souped up because I'm looking for a daily driver. But I mean just a header upgrade shouldnt do too much to this car anyways right?

Seems like a good deal, lots of those floating around right now with Roush cars. Check on Fnsweet.com. Somebody might know more about that car.
S2 cars are fun, good looks, lots of suspension / brakes makes for a fun street car.

I was looking for a stock Mustang that someone didn't molest, but with a professional Roush upgrade thats a little different.

But headers really aren't that big of an upgrade I guess, though in the description it does say they took the Cats off, so id have to install them to pass emissions.

I wouldn't want to keep it stock forever, my big thing is that I want something that "I" modify and personally pick and choose each part. Not something someone else tinkered with.

It's a silver Stage 2 Roush. Even has the serial number posted...which is rare for a dealer to be smart enough to include.
