2015 Ford Mustang Roush Stage 3 Phase 2

Description

Very powerful people often go unnoticed or are underestimated. They carry themselves with confidence, and If you know them, you know what they are capable of. But if you don't, you may not really notice that they are wearing a $6,000 suit and a Rolex Daytona watch. This car is like that. It's wearing a Roush $60,000 suit and can make time fly, but unless you know what that means, you might underestimate this car. That would be a mistake.

The signs are all there to let you know that this is a serious car. There is flat black paint on the hood scoop to let cold air in and other air vents to let hot air out. A banner across the windshield plainly announces it as a Roush Mustang for those who understand what that means. To many people though, this is just a beautiful Ruby Red Metallic Mustang with an aero kit and racing stripes. Up front there are HID headlamps and LED fog lamps. Air flows through the grills both above and below the bumper to feed and cool the engine. A chin spoiler reaches for the ground to keep unwanted air from getting underneath the car and a tell-tale Stage 3 badge appears on the grill as well as the front fenders. Aggressive side aero does the same thing and the rear facia has splitters flanking the quad tailpipes. Between the sequential taillamps is a blackout panel with Roush discreetly lettered into it. Polished alloy wheels fill up the fenders and help make this car look awesome.

Open the door and you will find an interior that is an efficient place to conduct some high-speed business from, but is also packed with all the luxury and convenience items you expect in a modern sports luxury car. The door panel is sharp looking with a long comfortable armrest, a couple speakers for the premium sound system and switches at your fingertips. The seats are trimmed with leather and are 6-way power adjustable as well as heated and cooled. A 3-spoke steering wheel is leather wrapped with hands free controls for the phone, the Synch sound system, cruise control and Nav. A Roush gauge cluster keeps accurate tabs on critical engine functions as well as your speed and engine rpm. The display in the center is a multi-function control panel as well as a display for the rear-view camera. Dual zone climate controls are below that. In the center console is the shifter for a 6-speed automatic transmission that is just begging you to ignore all the other controls and have some fun with it.

Pop the hood and you will find that wonderful, Roush 5.0 Liter, Stage 3, Phase 2 Supercharged V8 sitting in a neat and clean engine bay. The engine is a marvel of development work by Roush that generates over 700 horsepower and over 600 lb-ft of torque, yet balances that performance with drivability in a way that is pretty unbelievable. A cold air induction system feeds air to a Roush 2.3 TVS supercharger and intercooler and a finely tuned intake system. The bottom end of the engine is built to take that pressure with a heavy-duty crank and rods and forged aluminum pistons in order to handle the boost and make that kind of power. That power is sent back through that 6-speed automatic to a limited slip diff with 3.55 gears, and the Roush tuned suspension has adjustable height coil overs and sway bars to put that power on the ground. Big anti-lock disc brakes at all four wheels provide plenty of stopping power to haul this car back down from speed and the rubber meets the road through 275/35ZR20s all around.

This is a great looking, awesome example of American Muscle. Come on down and try it on for size. Then drive it home with confidence.
