If you haven't seen the 10 in person you might fell different about the looks of the car. I didn't like them in pics but once you look in person it makes huge difference.

I agree. The Roush front fascia, wheels, and exhaust look great in person, as doed the combination of white striping on Grabber Blue - not a color combo I would have thought I'd like, but it looks great.

I drove the Roush today and just couldn't resist - I bought it. Had to trade the 2006 GT, though, but I'm getting over it.
The 427R is simply awesome. Great looks, fast, handles great, and the exhaust upgrade is a beauty to behold. I am very impressed with the suspension - the ride is much more compliant than I had expected, but at the same time clearly performance-oriented.
Also, I'm not sure I mentioned it, but it is very fast.
Not sure how it will stack up against the upcoming 2011 GT, but I can't see being more pleased with the total package, particularly since the first owner's 2-day depreciation hit allowed me to get it for a compellingly low price.
I'll get some pictures up soon.
