Well it all depends if your talking about the 00-02 which puts down about 360hp (you can take thateasy) or the01 Anniversary 440A - claims 400hp disputed at 360hp, or the newer model 05+ 430hp with a 12.9 1/4mi.

The 05+ Stage 3s should be a drivers race

I really don`t care for a Roush of any stage. If you put the amount of money into a GT for which you pay fora Roush you would have a beast. To I don`t like the body kits. Just my veiw on them!

agreed. You pay more for the Jack Roush name and the side exaughst than anything else, however the wheels are pretty but you're better off with a cobra or a modded GT. Roush are still 2v SOHC? i think

Depends on stage of the Roush and the type of "run" you do. Assuming it's at least a Stage 2, it will out corner and out stop you. You'll kill it in the standing 1/4 (Well, standing anything for that matter) and in cost to buy.

That's not true either. The terminators corner better then the Shelby's and while the Stage 3 S197 out cornered it (handeling wise), the Shelby still had a better time... and it wasn't as close as the Shelby vs Terminator....

The Roush Mustang, is more for people that want the name, and/or think it's going to be a collectible.

Thats not the reason i bought mine for, i prefer the styling of a Roush over jus about anything out there.

Just to name a few: IMO
Stage 3 bumper, more aggressive than the Termi's
Side skirts, give it a lowered "look"
Side exhaust vice rear; uniqueness
NTM the Roush interior, feels good
