There are a few names synonymous with performance Mustangs; Saleen,
Steeda, Shelby, and the house that Jack built...Roush. What Jack
has done in terms of options is create stages, different levels of
modification that go from simple cosmetic and mechanical
enhancements to full on engine builds that are coupled with
suspension, exhaust, supercharging, and design in the King of the
Hill, the Stage III.
For consignment, a 2005 Ford Mustang Roush Stage 1 convertible
showing 10,136 miles, but the true miles are unknown. Stage 1 is
primarily a cosmetic package that bumps up the GT's aggression
quite a bit and the addition of Foose wheels pairs a couple of
legends in the aftermarket world in one slick car.
Exterior
The cool thing about a Mustang is you can always count on the
iconic look it had in its humble beginnings to show through, and
this year is no exception. From the modern covered headlights and
the galloping pony on the blackened grille to the hockey stick cove
on the rear quarters running up through the doors, along with the
triple tail lights now greatly enlarged and more aero compacted to
the rear roll pan, it harkens back but has a very forward look.
This car has a Roush front chin spoiler, front fascia, rocker
panels, rear spoiler, and of course the badging. Roush is stamped
into the rear valance as well. Our car is bathed in Torch Red
augmented by wide gold striping running from stem to stern. On top
is a tan canvas convertible and its glass window in great
condition. 20-inch Foose starfish shaped chrome wheels are on
staggered width, low profile with an early 2021 date code and red
calipers are clearly visible through the spokes. The exterior is in
spectacular condition with some chin scrapes and a crack being the
only imperfections.
Interior
Opening the doors we see plenty of Medium Parchment molded plastic
to form the door panels which present cleanly. The Roush interior
included parchment leather covered power seats with tuck and roll
red inserts. In back is a 2 plus 2 bench taking on the same dynamic
covering and all are in great shape. Tan carpeting covers the
floors and Roush embroidered floor mats are protecting this
carpeting. Upfront a carbon fiber faceplate houses deep circular,
inset white faced Roush gauges with 2 adjoining circular smaller
center gauges and Jack's autograph just below. Chrome rimmed
circular vents top the center stack where the carbon fiber
continues to dress things up and surround a Shaker500 audio system
for AM/FM/6 CD playing of the tunes, tilt wheel, power locks, power
top, power windows cruise control and keyless entry. The robust
shifter waits for commands from the center console and a cupholder
provides some 21st century convenience. The trunk is finished in
typical gray cloth panels and flooring, all clean.
Drivetrain
We have clean conditions in the bay, too, where resides the 4.6
liter 3-valve V8 rated at 300 horsepower and tied to a 5R55S
5-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the Ford 8.8"
rear with 3.31 gearing and TracLoc.
Undercarriage
Very clean underneath with impressive dual exhaust that flows
through stainless steel mufflers and each side terminates at square
exhaust tips that fit the valance cut outs like a puzzle piece.
Power disc brakes are present on all four wheels and suspension
consists of Macpherson struts in front and a 3 link with coil
springs and a panhard bar in back.
Drive-Ability
"It's not our car....it's not our car"...we had to repeat this
mantra so we wouldn't put our foot too deep into it, but then,
that's daily meditation. An intoxicating exhaust note will cause a
legal DWI with every drive and the comfortable and attractive
interior is just a nice place to be. The likely low mileage results
in every function on this car and we gallop this red pony back to
the mall. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions
were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee
these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
Here's a winning combination that will have you standing out from
the Mustang crowd, and that's not always easy. It's a beautiful
package that still retains the venerable 4.6 liter which provides
all the fun you'll need, and now you can do with the open sky above
you.
