I'm stopping by there on the way home. Should hit the dealership around 620 or so. A co-worker went by there about 20min ago and said the 05 Stage 3 was out there already. I don't have any kind of camera with me, sorry, but Carbine above said he'd take pics!

Well, my digital camera was dead this morning, so I took video instead. I need a place to host it though!
It was VERY difficult to get in/around the '05 roush, and I'm a little sad I didn't get better video of it. This doesn't do it justice.
Honestly, today was the first time I actually sat in an '05 mustang. I really liked it! I'm not sure it lived up to what I was hoping for though...of course I didn't sit in a GT.
They were all out of them at Brandon Ford.
So, can somebody give me a place to ftp this video to? (5mb)
Edit: Nevermind, forgot about a host I have. Gimme a few minutes.

Quick review - as with the non-Roush Stangs, pictures do not do it justice. The Stage 3 at Brandon Ford is one mean looking *****! Perfect stance, and the front bumper looks better in person where you can see the detail in it. I'm still not crazy about the body-colored grille and fog light surrounds, but, eh. The tires were 275/40/18 on all 4 corners, and there are Borla mufflers (man are they small!). I couldn't make out the mid pipe in the exhaust, but it does have the stock cast iron exhaust manifolds. The interior looks great, I really like the two-tone seats. No price was on the car, but more than likely Brandon Ford will put a market adjustment on it. I know they're not putting MA's on 05 V6/GT models, but a few years ago they had an S281E with an $8K mark up on it. So there's my mini review!

Looks like Roush killed the beautiful stock IUP dash. That color keyed dash looks nasty, and so does the front end. It hurts me to say, but I think Saleen did a better job.

CRAP! Where's the heads up on these visits? That motor sure looks sweet! I would love to feel the power of that car. I'm really reluctant to put a S-charger within warranty, being a new model and all. Oh, tonight, I had a new Dodge Viper pull up next to me, challenging. I wasn't about to embarass myself or give him the pleasure.
