TimTaylor751647545500 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I know, bad pics. This guys was weaving like crazy this morning on the way home from work around 8:30 on the Northeast side of 270. Still has temp tags and still had the GT emblems on the fenders, so not sure what Stage this one was. It was also some odd orange color I've never seen. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/cars/0325080845.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/TimTaylor75/cars/0325080846.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99FLHRCI Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hugger Orange? That is the new yellowish orange color that they started using this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTaylor751647545500 Posted March 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yeah, this is it, but I think they call it Grabber Orange actually. Put me in the right direction though. http://www.stangplanet.com/~dave/20071024_grabberorange.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty2Hotty Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 He lives somewhere up here around 23. Last saturday saw him come sideways onto 23, and blow tire til around 70ish. Sounded great, and looked tits. It's atleast a Stage 2, it had a blower on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 gay. i saw a silver stage 1 roush at sunocco in hilliard, while i was filling up my '04 yesterday. i wasn't too impressed, looks like a lot of show, and no go--he got into it as he left--sounded like a regular '08 with exhaust. i'm not a big fan of badges all over the car, and body kits/wings/etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that I do not like the Roush Stage kits. It is $10K for a Stage 1 kit and the exhaust doesn't even add any power. It is still rated at 300hp.

They have a NICE P-51A package, puts out 532HP. For the price, as with all Roush kits, I am sure you could do more for less. ($33k). Kreiger had a real nice 427R (435HP) that was supposedly being trade in and was going to go for $30k. My father was looking into buying it but, they never told him if it got traded in or not. He ended up getting a low milage used Lime Green '05 from Keim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTaylor751647545500 Posted March 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 This was definitely NOT a Stage 1. I heard him coming up behind me with my stereo at a pretty significant level. Once he went around me, I could still hear him from about 1/4 mile back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtbolt64 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 There will be a Stage 3 Black Roush out with us at the Columbus racing day at NTR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty2Hotty Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Black or gunmetal, yeah. The guy you see still have 30 day tags on his? Yup, I'll probably see him hauling ass around lunch. It sounds absolutely nasty, very un-mustang like. Watched him yesterday blow tire off in a parking lot as I was filling up. Atleast he drives it like he stole it :nod: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B3NN3TT Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Did somebody say Cougar That is all a Stage 1 is. I agree that I do not like the Roush Stage kits. It is $10K for a Stage 1 kit and the exhaust doesn't even add any power. It is still rated at 300hp. The suspension package is a big part of the Mustang though - that's why the lap times are so much quicker with the Roush, even without a huge horsepower boost.
