Want to say hello to everybody. I am in a quandary, trying to decide ( right this moment, but things could always change) between 2 Mustangs. Candidate #1- 2014 Roush stage 3 pretty much loaded and #2- 2012 GT 500 loaded. Both are low miles, close in price, right color, all the right goodies. One thing going for the Shelby is it has an extended Ford warranty, but the Roush is younger. All output is welcome either way. Thank you all.

Roush is nice but, it is still just 5.0 Mustang with aftermarket parts, the Shelby is a direct factory offering, and the 2012 has the aluminum block, and of course with just a pulley, intake and a tune, the Shelby will be making about 700-750 RWHP.
Then if it matters the Shelby will hold it's value better, and some day maybe be worth a lot, Roush not so much. IMHO
Either way have fun, Oh and welcome to the forums

Welcome, good luck in your decision.

Shelby gets my vote also.

Panties up snug, growing a set ( damn, think my wife might have seen that remark), going Shelby,Shelby, Shelby. Thanks for the sage advice.
