First off, thank you everyone for your sympathies over the recent demise of my shiny new 05 GT.

Looks like she's gonna pull through - she was in a bad way, but doctors say she just wouldn't let go. Way to go! Anyhow, since she's going to be patched up (yeah, no new car, but hey, I'd have likely had to wait for ever for that anyway), why not have them fix her up good and proper? If all goes to plan, I'll have a Roush Stage 1 kit delivered on time to have my baby not just back, but sweeter than ever!

While she's under, in addition to prettying her up (ok, all you anti-Roushers, lemme have it!), she'll get her new pulleys and gears put in. A nice window tint and she'll be over the trauma in no time.

Can't wait 'til she comes home, bless her. She's been through so much.

Great news, hope the lady who pulled out in front of you (her insurance) helps out a bit! Good luck with the mods!

I think all the Rouche hate comes from those initially awful photoshop's they did.

Even when they did their photo-shoot the lighting was all wrong, and didn't compliment the car at all.

In person or photo's taken in natural light have done the car the justice it deserves.

Actually yours will be better than a Rouche, I don't like what they did to the some of the interior bits.

If you leave those things out, you'll have a winner

You only get one first impression and Roush screwed that one up royally. I hope they learned their lesson on this one and will never release a photoshopped picture of their car ever again.
