Default New Roush 5XR Mustang photos

Roush just posted some new photos of their 2011 5XR Mustang. What do you guys think?

Looks good, are these true GT500 killers like TopGear reviewed them to be?

Yep

I don't want to like this because I have a dislike of this body style, but actually I love the subtle tweaks to the exterior which Roush have done. They could have done more to hide that ugly *** end, like Saleen have done, but I'll forgive them

Looks the same as the 2010s....just more hp, with the tranny rated for 375..... At least on the GT500, the monster rear spoiler hides that *** a bit.

Those were last generation cars, and the 2007-2009 GT500 wasn't exactly stellar on the track. The new one is a lot better, but the Roush could still probably take it on a road course.

Good luck getting one in California... CARB does not like it, so they're apparently not going to be for sale here.

Looks good to me but I really dislike those wheels.
