Default To Those Who Told Me To Get a Real Mustang...

Well, I sold my 07 v6 auto that had 65K mi on it

Going to look at an 05 Roush Stage 1 Convertible 5 Speed with 69K mi on Saturday

Real excited

What are the main differences between a Roush Stage 1 and a standard GT?

It's all about appearance. Stage 2 introduces suspension upgrades and 3 includes the blower.

Congrats!

Ahh well - it's still a Roush haha

I'll be doing my interior 1st - carrying over what I took off the v6 before I sold it, a nice new hood, then a blower and the whole lot.

Here's hoping my mechanic gives me the okay

So what you're saying is, that a V6 mustang isn't a real mustang?
I also don't get this in your signature..
"ON ORDER: 2012 Ford Mustang v6 Vert to arrive in July - I'm excited already!"

I'm saying that people told me to "get a real Mustang" when I bought the v6. Personally I thought they were wrong, but the more I drove it the more HP I wanted.

And about that - well - apparently due to some screw up - that car just came in last week. I decided not to buy it since some money issues came up.

When you want to know how much horsepower a V6 can make go look up American muscles V6....tell me that is not a real car..those people who told you that a V6 isn't a real mustang are stuck up "Oh I got a GT ********". Funny thing is my dads 2006 V6 has beaten and has kept up with a brand new GT500 on the strip. People can say all they want about the guy not driving it right...the fact is that v6 has beaten GT mustangs many times with only exhaust, tune, and a cold air intake.

Who gives a flying f*ck what people say?

The same ones are just gonna say you should have gotten a Stage 2,3 or 427R since the Stage 1 is essentially a GT with Jack Roush's name, a bodykit and a higher price tag
