IMHO I wouldn't even think about it. The owner is sitting upon the fact that it is a "Roush Mustang" and the price is probably 3500-4000 to much. Far to overpriced and you never know if it is legit. So basically its a GT with a bodykit. No thanks...

it is a nice looking car and i dont think it is a bad price for a roush but like purpleIcedgt said you have to check if it is legit. good luck.

Or just email the seller for the VIN and then contact Roush and see if it crosses with their records to see if legit if you were seriously thinking about it

I wouldnt be 100% sure about that. Call the guy and get the VIN number and see if its actually a roush. If it is then he could definently be legit.

Pulled the VIN. No indication of a Roush. Is it strictly going to be through Roush who would know?

looks like he took a GT and is tryign to call it a "roush." 61k is getting up there w/ millage too. The badges look stupid on the back and honestly the fornt bumper with those fogs look stupid... is that really what came on a roush??

plus doesn't roush put their # on the front bumper and on other parts of the car to make it authentic?

the price is kinda high, being a roush the seller probably wants to think its worth more than it is. looks like a legit roush to me...but stage 1 is not worth paying for the name. do yourself a favor. find a gt same year, miles will most likely be lower for the same price range, put a mach 1 grill delete / chin spoiler on it and IMO you will have a car that looks 20 times better then the roush, and you should have money left over for mods.

that or if ur bent spending 12g's on a mustang go find a mach 1 much more unique imo. but ive always been partial to the mach's
