They are pretty cars but so damned expensive. It kills me that you can build so much more car for so much less. I gotta say i generally hate Roush's being that they have become more body kit bullsh$t than performance, but I like the 427 because it's more stripped down and grass-roots style. I know it comes with a lot less of the stupid options and is more of a true hotrod. I'm not a tuner car fan, but if I were to get one THAT would be the one. very nice!

Not thrilled with the way Rousch misused the 427 moniker. Had an opportunity to buy a Stage 3 last year when I was in the market for a Shelby. Dealer here wanted $53K.

At $10K over the Shelby sticker and barely able to hang with a stock Vette, way overpriced. What are they asking for the "427"?

Decided on the CS instead. More fun building my own anyway

lol you used "Rousch misused" in the same sentence "Roush" it's $43k and when I done with the mods vettesare going to have a bad day.

Roush, Steeda, Saleen - doesn't matter. Too much money spent on non-performance parts - or parts most of us will never use (suspension).

I've got $34k in my GT and have about 400 at the flywheel and no useless spoilers or ducting.

If you like "tuner" cars - go for it. I was on a budget. And I've got a "one of a kind."

Rufdraft I was not trying to be an A$$ but damn that was harsh...nice car you have there.

Hi Revans - Harsh? Sorry. I wasn't trying to be. Just my opinion. I said if you like tuner cars - go for it!

My bag is form follows function - and most spoilers/add on bodyparts are not functional.

Your car looks sweet.

I had to use my budget to come up with something that performed at the lowest cost.

Sorry if I offended you, man.

I think the car looks great and the only problem is you are paying for the roush name along with the upgrades. Its great that it is S/C though.

saw a shootout of the roush against the GT500 on youtube.com, pretty impressive. overall they gave it to the roush. but it a straight line it can't touch the shelby. also, my GT has a non functional hood. love the look but when you stretch it out on the interstate it makes the hood act like it's going to fly up

Sunshine - have you had your GT dynoed?
