Well should I trade in my Mustang for a roush stage2? Well I got the day off from work at the car wash due to weather so I had nothin else really to do so I decided to go tire kicking at a Ford Dealer. And I found sitting in a corner a 2001 Stage 2 Roush it is laser red with 34,00 original miles has great paint has some dings and the interior in alright. I convinced my dad to look at it. The sales men siad he would sell it to me for 15,000, so I got my dad down there and took it for a spin and I drove it and it was nice, It drove a little better than mine not much of a difference but wow the sound of that car was awesome. My dad asked the sales men if they would take 10,000 for it and my dad could not believe that the salesmen said lets talk inside and negotiate. I dad really does not want another car but I offered to trade mine in for it but I don't think it is the you know the special one you have have been searching for. I will up date as this goes. If anyone has had a roush please tell me if you like the car in the long run.

Re: Well should I trade in my Mustang for a roush stage2?
I have mixed feelings about it. I mean the car is all original when my car has a replaced motor wich I wish it did not. I know that there are not many roush mustangs for sale because they are great cars but I think I will look at it one more time but I would only get it if they gave me and my dad a awesome deal like 10,000 dollars I would buy it. It is one of those cars, it has almost everything you want but it is missing something. I prefer black paint but red still shows the gloss. It would have to be the one car you have been searching for. I do not think it is it but I will see what happens. If it is the one I would keep it forever. It would have to be the car that you will not get bored with. I may get bored of a roush and want to sell it.Alex

Re: Well should I trade in my Mustang for a roush stage2?
I may be able to help you out...
First off, you will want to know if it is a real one or not. There will be 3 things on the car that will let you know.- There will be a plaque to the right of the steering wheel stating that it is a Stage 2.
- In the driver side door jamb, there should be a sticker stating when it was modified by Roush.
- In the passenger door jamb, there will be a sticker with a serial number on it.
- In case someone decided to get crafty and add these things, call 800-59-ROUSH with the VIN. They can look it up for you and tell you if it is real or not.
Let me know if it is real or not (I can find out for you online as well), and some more in-depth about the condition of everything. What Roush options does it have? Wheels? Intake? Shifter? Gauges? Leather? Decals? Details brother, details. VIN if possible and the dealership. I can check a thing or two with the VIN and dealership, and possibly find a previous owner.
IMO, if you can get it, get it. If you want a Mustang, this is the one you need. You won't regret it later. Mine is my 1st car and the moment I saw it, I knew that was the one. I will have mine forever. The best Mustang out there. If you get bored with a Roush...yeah.
Here's a clip of my exhaust with the Spintechs. It is pretty loud, can be heard from quite a distance. BTW, that white sticker is the one I listed above in the driver side door jamb.

Re: Well should I trade in my Mustang for a roush stage2?
Picture won't load (shows address as Http://*********), but is that Folsom Lake Ford!?!?!?!?!?
That is where I go to get my car worked on! I saw that car a few weeks ago when my oil was getting changed. Were you there on a Saturday by any chance looking at it? I remember seeing 2 guys looking at it when I was pulling out...
If so (I'm almost 100% sure), I have talked to some of the sales guys there before...

Re: Well should I trade in my Mustang for a roush stage2?
Yeah I was there on saturday. On the 29 of march. I was looking at it for a while for about a couple of hours. That is Folsom Lake Ford. I know that they are pricey. My dad told me to wait a week before going back to see it and if it still there we will consider it. man those salesmen are good. They are like sharks. Tyler If you want to see a better pic check out the Folsom lake Ford site. I car faxed it and 3 things rang up. Two electrical problems and 1 service claim it does not say what the claim is. I mean it is a great deal for what it is. I would like to have it but it may not happen. What are some good ways to bring the price down?Alex

Re: Well should I trade in my Mustang for a roush stage2?
When I got to drive it the salesmen told me that there was a couple inside trying to buy the car so who knows it may be gone. I just want the car to go to a good home were it will be taken care of and treated like the prince of cars. The spoiler is in bad shape it is wavey and oxidized. or fading. It has its share of scratches and has five door dings on it tht er noticable. The seats have a couple of tears and a were spot on the seat from daily use. I am thinking about getting it. Going back on next saturday.
Hey if you are looking for your first car maybe I can sell you mine (97 GT) when I need the cash to buy the Roush.Alex

Did they price your trade? If so, was it below blue book? If not, you need to get a copy showing what it is worth when they try to screw you on your trade (another one of their specialties).
