Thought you guys would like this. I saw it at my Ford dealer Saturday, just didn't upload pics until now. MSRP was $45,395, it was 34k without the Roush Package added on. Almost 11k for shocks, struts, swaybars, springs, shifter, 20'' wheels/tires, and a bodykit? It is an awesome car, but seems a bit high priced....










They wouldn't let us test drive this car but luckily we were able to test drive a black premium 5.0 convertible. Having black leather interior whilst exposed to the hot Texas sun, it was almost scorching inside at first. The seat belt buckle felt like it was going to burn me.

On the positive side, the car rode great for a convertible, my dad was amazed. He doesn't even like convertibles but he was actually considering it if he were to purchase a 5.0.

The power was also great, definitely more torque down low than our 315rwtq 4.6 3V GT/CS. Our car feels sluggish in the lower gears, but the 5.0 always felt like it was ready to get up and go. Even at light throttle, I could hear and feel the power.

My dad didn't even drive very fast at all, I can only imagine the feel at WOT.

 

I'd take everything on it but the tape stripe.

 

Same, I think the Roush stripe on the hood which can't be seen looks ok though.

 

Which dealer had that car?

 

Pricing seems to be about the same as a Stage 1 from another post, so I guess with that in mind the Stage 2 is a better deal.

 

So is Roush telling us that the strut tower brace is not needed? The 2011 Stage 2 gets last year's Stage 3 full suspension but no strut tower brace? I'm surprised!!!

 

I'm not feelin' that light grey stripe either. But somebody will.

 

I think it is bc it stops at the bumper.
It would look much better if it went all the way down.

But overall much improved over the last roush.
