I would have to say Black Jack. I LOVE Roush. They are underestimated, and the Black Jack is a much rarer car. It's cool to own something less common. I'd pick the Black Jack probably but up to you only.

Also if you were to modify the engine/blower/exhaust system it could be a hell of a base platform and the rarity really adds to it. Fact: I never see Black Jack Roush's driving around. There is a TON of Shelby GT500's around for me. I see at least 2-3 a week. Black Jack. Have not seen 1 in the past 2 years.

Ive went through all the pros and cons, and they seem to almost equal out in my mind. I just want to see what the general opinion of both cars would be.

Btw, Im 19 and this car would just be a weekend cruiser to town and on dates.
At 19 It is not buying the cars but paying the Insurance rates on ether of those cars that is the problem Hope you have some money left to put away for your future after paying the premiums

i have to wonder at why he would even throw money away to go to college if hes already working in whats clearly a successful family business.

i went to college got a good job and while i have my toys, i don't have THAT much money to spend on toys like he does. granted free rent could change that........

but still sell a car, get an apartment, stay where your at and live and be happy? college is a waste of a time if your making good money already doing your families business. now if your parents are saying gtfo you can't work here and freeload anymore thats another story.......... but if they were saying that i don't think you would be buying a gt500 right now either....

My parents want me to go to college. Not my decision.
