My new ride, maybe
So, I have been feeling sporty lately and I am looking at a few cars(miss my 5.0 mustang). I just posted my bike up for sale, sad I know but I will be getting a 1000rr in the spring. Let me know whatchya think I have narrowed it down to 2 or 3.
2000 Roush stage 2
or the 97' vette

Being a mustang owner, my opinion is biased. But please for the sake of humanity buy the roush stage 2. Or, for that money, buy a 99-01 cobra. They look great, and they're crazy fast for N/A cars cuz of the 32 valves. But if you're looking for speed, 03-04 cobra is the way to go 390 factory rated horsepower. When they're actualy putting down around 425 on average. I'd reccomend a 32 valve V8 mustang anyday. I'm pretty sure the Stage 2 is only 24 valve. They're both 4.6L tho.
if you want flat out straitline preformance then get the roush, but it wont handle like the vett will becuase the vett is a much more balanced car and the ls1 puts out great power. becareful with aftermarket crap on vettes though i would look for an unmoded one.
Get the Corvette... you get the power and 28 mpg on the highway... but a 97 is an old fart by now I know the leather in that thing is shredded. Save your cash and get a c5 z06
Like an earlier member said, the '03 Cobra is a VERY fast car. For the money, I would go with it. But if it's just between those 2 cars, go with the Roush. That Vette is just a nasty color of green. And remember, First On Race Day!
