A Roush 427 to me would be a nicer daily driver and occasional track car. The suspension/brake work on those cars will blow away a 2011 with the Track Pack.

and if you want the 302/5.0 "honors", simply stroke/forge the 4.6 3v in the Roush and you'll have more HP and the cool factor. You can get stroker kits for as low as $1,200

That's reusing the stock crank or getting another cast piece. Still would be good to around 650 HP or so.

I probably won't drive it every day, but I'll drive it often. It's much more comfortable and refined than my 2006 was, and at the same time, more fun to drive. No garage queen for me.
