I haven't even taken delivery of my 2014 GT yet, but I have been batting around the idea of picking up a phase 1 SC from roush. Man those things are pricey. What are the odds that they will come down in price once the new 2015's come out. Or should I just suck it up and pick one up now (in 6 months)

 

Give us a shout, with our 7% discount the price drops a bit

 

Wasting no time going for big power huh?

 

I blame all those youtube vid's I've watched. I never plan on taking it to the track or street racing, but it would be nice to know that I would have an extra 140 hp at my disposal.
Just for ***** and giggles

 

Yep extra power is always fun

I notice you have a S60R too huh? Always liked those. Anything done to that?

 

Yep, it's my DD. No mods on it. I was going to after I purchased it back in 2007. Then I had a spring rust out on the parking brake while driving it and for some reason it locked up my rear causing me to destroy my rear spindle. Cost about 1,800. Then I had a nice little issue with the AWD (**** poor design) which cost another 2 k. Then lastly, had front struts to replace which cost around 800 with me doing the labor. dealer would have charged 2k . First and last Volvo I will ever own. I'm going to drive it till the engine blows. Then I am going to have it towed to an abandon field where I will take pleasure in complete and utter destruction of that car. The bad thing is everything seems to be 2k to fix on that car.

 

haha sounds slightly similar to my experiences with my Audi... when it ran, it ran wonderfully, but when it needed repairs (often...) it was a royal pain in the ***. I drove it hard and had a lot of fun though, now it's not my problem

I added up my maintenance costs one time. I got depressed and tried to forget the #

Mustang is much better

 

I plan on getting one next spring... Almost got one this spring, but other priorities came up. So, crossing my fingers, I hope to get one next spring. 625hp is just calling my name.

I also had the itch, I've got a Roush stage 2 kit sitting in my hallway waiting for the week of August 12th to have it installed by a authorized Roush shop. Hey at least I waited 1 year and 3 months before pulling the trigger (LOL).
I purchased it at American Muscle with a 6% discount and of course no crazy sales tax so the bottom line cost was not bad.
