I'd take either...but get the suspension on the Shelby up to par with its HP potential and it will be insane.

The roush is just a mustang gt thats REALLY beefed up. Neither of them have IRS. But yes i would take the shelby and put the roush suspension on it.

I strongly disagree with you my friend. On the contrary a true show of speed is the full ability: Power, handling, braking. Even though the Shelby has a lot of the first it has non of the second and third. The roush has all three. What good is a fast car if you're only fast in a straight line? Its like i have a lot of mustang friends in this Mustang Mafia club here in CO. My friend has an 04 Roush stage 2 with 75 mm TB & UI and a tuner and thats it. When we play around on the street he always gets his arss handed to him by all the other guys in bolt on GT's. When we cruise up to the mountians me and him just leave everyone in the dust. We raced up "the pass" (the road i have to drive everyday to get to work and back) with two 03 cobra's and just ate them alive. I we were swinging around corners and my tires were'nt even close to breaking loose and even making noise and those cobras were squeeling and jumping all over the place. Thats why i hate IRS. The almighting cobra couldnt keep up with the 2v's. Me and the Roush went at it too and he broke out before it did and he bought a car thats built for handling and i paid half the price for my car and put some money into it and still smoked a track built car around the corners. (I have tubular upper and lower control arms, full length weld in subframes, tower bar, performance springs 2 1/4" drop, etc) Fun stuff.
