2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang

Roush and Mustang go hand-in-hand as much as a steak and eggs does for breakfast: they both make their pedestrian starting points much more enjoyable. With the new release of the epic 5.0-Liter V8 from Ford, Jack Roush and his engineering team just couldn”t wait to get their hands on it. The ending result is the 2011 ROUSH 5XR, which has been heavily anticipated by ROUSH fans.

The new 5XR features a factory-installed R2300 ROUSHcharger for both the V8 convertible and coupe, which boosts horsepower and torque from 412 and 390, to 525 hp and 465 lb-ft”¦yup you read that right. And thankfully, people who buy the 5XR are required to row their own gears because the 5XR only comes with a manual transmission.

A new exhaust accentuates that epic supercharged V8 bellow.

Additionally, ROUSH added a suspension kit that changes out the front struts, rear shocks and springs, and front and rear stabilizer bars and 20-inch chrome wheels. The shoes supplied are high-performance Cooper RS3s.

ROUSH also added a new body kit, which makes the car far more aggressive, yet it”s unique and subtle. Included are upgrades to the front fascia with driving lamps, an upgraded front splitter, new side rockers, a new rear fascia and valence, and an added three-piece rear spoiler. A new grille is added as well, allowing for better airflow to help the engine cool. And if that wasn”t enough to separate the normal Mustang from the ROUSH, the 5XR is decked out with ROUSH badges on nearly every panel with an included graphics and vinyl package.

Upon purchase, you receive a letter of authenticity, signed personally by Jack Roush, and if the 5XR wasn”t enough, upgrade packages and options are also available including revised color-matching sport leather seats, new four-piston brakes and more.

2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang:

Press Release:

2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang Adds “More Power”

LIVONIA, Mich. ““ Jack Roush is a man who knows how to coax horsepower from an engine. ROUSH® has become an automotive powerhouse based on this simple premise, and he couldn’t wait to get his hands, and his engineering team, on the new Ford 5.0L engine. The end result, and the car fans of the ROUSH Mustang have been waiting for, is the 2011 ROUSH 5XR™ Mustang with “more power” under the hood thanks to the factory-installed ROUSHcharger®.

Make no mistake, the 2011 ROUSH 5XR is a runner. With the R2300 ROUSHcharger installed the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang will sport an “extreme” 525 horsepower under the hood, along with an “exciting” 465 lb.-ft. of torque. To keep the “exclusivity” high, there will be a maximum of just 150 units of the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang built, each with a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty on the powertrain and ROUSH components. The 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang is available in a coupe or convertible, but only with a six-speed manual transmission.

“I’m always excited to get an opportunity to work on a new engine, and the Ford 5.0-liter is a great platform. It has 412 horsepower to begin with, but our group was able to coax out another 113 horsepower with the ROUSHcharger. The 2011 ROUSH 5XR runs fast, sounds great, and is another amazing addition to the ROUSH Mustang heritage,” said Jack Roush, motorsports legend and chairman of ROUSH Enterprises.

To handle the road, a ROUSH suspension kit has been installed to provide superior handling and ride control. This includes front struts, rear shocks and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars. The car rides on ROUSH 20-inch chrome rims with high-performance Cooper RS3 tires.

The installed ROUSH exhaust with square tips gives the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang a deep, throaty sound worthy of a supercharged American V-8 muscle car. The aggressive ROUSH body kit changes the appearance of the car so people know that this is not just any Ford Mustang prowling the roads. The appearance upgrades include a ROUSH front fascia with driving lamps, front chin splitter, side rocker splitters, rear valance and three-piece decklid spoiler. A ROUSH upper billet grille streamlines the front of the vehicle and provides some additional cooling to the engine, and a unique 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang graphics package trims out the appearance of this limited edition vehicle. Badging unique to this vehicle can be found throughout the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang.

One thing that makes this car different from previous ROUSH Mustangs is that the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang will be sold only as a post-title vehicle. This means that the authorized ROUSH-Ford dealership must pre-sell the car to a customer or title the vehicle before the order can be placed in the ROUSH system. The 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang is not available for sale in California. Please contact your local ROUSH-authorized Ford dealer for more information, or visit www.ROUSHperformance.com to locate your nearest dealer.

A letter of authenticity, personally signed by Jack Roush, will be sent to each buyer of the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang. The 2011 ROUSH 5XR package carries a suggested retail price of $15,390 in addition to the cost of the base Mustang chassis.

In addition to the rich collection of standard features, a variety of upgrade options are available for the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang, including color-matched sport leather seats, big four-piston brakes with 14-inch slotted rotors, vent pod gauge, and a lower three-piece billet grille. For more information on the 2011 ROUSH 5XR Mustang, visit www.ROUSHperformance.com/5XR or call toll-free (800) 59-ROUSH.

2011 Roush Shelby SR-71 Mustang

Ford”s tradition of supporting young aviators through the Young Eagles program of the Experimental Aircraft Association logged another significant milestone Thursday, as the one-off Mustang created by both Jack Roush and Carroll Shelby netted $375,000 at an auction at the EAA AirVenture program. This auction came on the heels of Roush”s airplane crash at the site, from which the legendary tuner still has not recovered.

Click here for our original post on the 2011 Roush Shelby SR-71 Mustang.

Refresher: The Mustang SR-71″s power comes with a 5.0 L V8 supplemented by a 2.3 L supercharger and a special Roush intake, with a special paint job, glass roof, and custom 21 inch wheels. The only one of its kind, this Mustang had the signatures of both Jack Roush and Carroll Shelby on the seats- the only time this has ever, and likely will ever, occur.

2011 Roush Shelby SR-71 Mustang

Many a Mustang afficianado has wondered what would happen if the two iconic men of the art-Jack Roush and Carroll Shelby- were to work together on one Mustang, taking the best of all their experience and talent. Well, wayward thoughts have now been realized, in the name of fundraising for the Experimental Aircraft Association. The Mustang, named the SR-71 (both as a combination of Shelby and Roush and as an homage to the SR-71 Blackbird), will be auctioned on July 29th at the EAA”s flagship airshow.

The Mustang SR-71″s power comes with a 5.0 L V8 supplemented by a 2.3L supercharger and a special Roush intake, with the handling covered by the Mustang handling pack. Ford has also added a roll cage and special intake, to make the driving experience the finest one can find from a Mustang.

And with a striking matte grey paint as well as custom graphics and rims, the machine will turn heads with its visage as well as its speed. The interior will feature Recaro racing seats with embedded signatures of both Shelby and Roush, as well as modified instrumentation and navigational displays, as well as only two seats to give the impression of a true racing car. All in all, this car looks to be the best a Mustang can be; with Jack Roush and Carroll Shelby coming together, all Mustang lovers have something to be very, very excited about.

“We wanted to give customers the opportunity to enjoy the collectability of a very limited edition series of performance cars but still be able to customize it,” noted Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. “By teaming with ROUSH and Planet Color, we merged the two, giving enthusiasts literally the best of both worlds.”

Interior enhancements include leather seats with an embroidered Barrett-Jackson logo; four-piece performance pedals; ROUSH illuminated sill plates; short throw shifter with black or white ball; and a new interior badge with the serial number engraved.

Roush Performance announced today that it will offer its Stage 1 and Stage 2 packages for the 2011 Ford Mustang GT in April.

“Using the new Ford 5.0-Liter, V-8 engine, both of these cars will have 412 horsepower and 390 ft.-lb. or torque, all while reaching an estimated 25 highway miles per gallon of fuel economy,” Roush said in a statement. “Also new for the 2011 model year is the standard six-speed transmission, something that Mustang fans have clamored for over the past several years.”

The Stage 1 package will consist of aesthetic changes such as the addition of the OEM-quality ROUSH body kit, while Stage 2 will offer suspension and handling upgrades in addition to appearance upgrades.

“The 2011 ROUSH® Stage 1™ and Stage 2™ Mustangs will represent an incredible value by blending appearance and handling with an amazing base Ford engine package,” said Jack Roush. “I expect that the 2011 Stage 1™ and Stage 2™ ROUSH® Mustangs could come close to matching the performance of some ROUSHcharged™ Mustangs we have offered in prior model years which will make them extremely exciting to drive and at a reasonable starting price point.”

For power upgrades, the Roush 427R engineering team is already working on producing a ROUSHcharger for the 2011 model year. Those packages won’t be offered until late summer.

While it isn’t giving away too many details, Roush said yesterday that it is introducing a new in-house lifestyle club next year that will charge Roush owners and members $35 a year. The tuner says that there are about 16,000 of its vehicles out on the U.S. roads, which could lead to upward of $500,000 for the company.

“The name of “The Club,” as it will temporarily be referred to, will be voted upon during the month of January,” Roush said in a statement. “The official, chosen name will be announced in early February, with the logo unveiled shortly afterwards.”

“The goal of ‘The Club’ is to create a forum of fun, information and events,” said Joe Thompson, Roush Performance vice president and general manager “There will be a high level of interaction with Roush employees, some exciting activities each year, as well as an open forum for information about the vehicles, parts, engines, and other things that make up the Roush Performance universe.”

A dedicated website is under development, but for now, interested members can visit www.ROUSHperformance.com/club for more details. Membership sign-ups will begin in early January, 2010.

Roush’s new 427R 2010 Mustang is powered by a 4.3L V8 that has been supercharged to produce 435-hp. Not bad seeing as it allows you to do 0 to 60 mph in the low 4-second range. But what if you feel that isn’t enough horsepower for you to put the all the other pony cars on the road to rest.

Well, Roush today introduced something called the 2010 Roush Stage 3 Mustang, which uses the same engine from the 2009 Roush P-51B Mustang. However, with a couple of modifications, including the next-generation R2300 ROUSHcharger, the engine now produces 540-hp with a peak torque of 510 lb-ft.

Suggested retail price for the 2010 Roush Stage 3 Mustang comes in at $59,945. Roush will produce a limited 103 units of the Stage 3 Mustang so you better hurry if you want one.

However, if you don’t want to pay all that money and don’t really care about 18-inch wheels and a body kit, Roush is also offering the 540RH which it says is “intended to be a ‘sleeper’ car.” It gets the same 540-hp along with a new suspension package, front and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars and jounce bumpers – all starting at $46,145.

2010 Roush Stage 3 Mustang / 540RH:

2010 Roush Stage 3 Mustang:

Press Release:

ROUSH® introduces a pair of new 2010 Mustang models, each with 540 horsepower and 510 lb.-ft. of torque ready to be unleashed by the touch of the throttle.

The 2010 ROUSH Stage 3™ Mustang will once again take its rightful place atop the hierarchy of Jack Roush’s lineup. The vehicle comes fully-loaded with the ROUSH body components; resonator exhaust; four-piston front brakes with 14-inch rotors and painted rear calipers with slotted rotors; and the new upper billet grille which removes the fog lamps and streamlines the appearance of the new Mustang while improving cooling performance. Interior enhancements include ROUSH leather seats with an embroidered Jack Roush signature; four-piece performance pedals; ROUSH illuminated sill plates; short throw shifter with black or white ball; and a new interior Stage 3 badge with the car’s serial number engraved.

The 2010 ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang will ride on 18-inch chrome wheels with high-performance Cooper RS3 tires; 20-inch chrome wheels with Cooper RS3 tires are one of the few options available on this model. The suspension package includes ROUSH front struts, rear shocks, front and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars and jounce bumpers.

“The ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang has traditionally been among the halo vehicles of our lineup and I’m really proud that it sits atop the pecking order once again,” said Jack Roush. “This new iteration of the Stage 3 represents our highest horsepower and most sophisticated ROUSH Mustang yet, and is sure to resonate among our fans.”

The suggested retail for the 2010 ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang is $59,945*. The 2010 ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang will have a limited production run of only 103 vehicles.

The second Mustang unveiled with the 540 horsepower powerplant is the new 2010 ROUSH 540RH™, a limited content, full powertrain vehicle. Also known as the Hammer®, this car comes armed with massive horsepower, a ROUSH rear decklid spoiler, and short throw shifter with a choice of white or black ball, the 540RH is a stoplight slayer.

Proving just how quick this car can be on the optional 18-inch Cooper RS3 tires, ROUSH engineers recorded an 11.8-second elapsed time at 121 mph during testing at Milan (Mich.) Dragway in early September.

“The new ROUSH 540RH is really intended to be a ‘sleeper’ car,” Roush explained. “It will be purposely built with minimal content as it was designed for the buyer who wanted the ROUSH horsepower but with a blank canvas that can be customized into their own personal one-of-a-kind ride.”

The 2010 ROUSH 540RH has a new suspension package which includes front and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars and jounce bumpers, and a subtle tone-on-tone striping package. All this comes with a suggested retail starting at $46,145* when built on a base Ford Mustang GT chassis.

Both the 2010 ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang and the 2010 ROUSH 540RH Mustang use the same engine that debuted in the 2009 ROUSH P-51B™ Mustang. In order to get this type of power from the Ford 4.6L, 3-valve engine, ROUSH technicians replace many of the internal components with stronger parts including forged aluminum pistons (with an increased dish to lower the compression ratio from 9.8 to 8.6), forged steel H-Beam connecting rods and a forged steel crankshaft. The fuel rails are changed, as are the fuel injectors and an upgraded fuel pump. ROUSH also upgrades the clutch and includes a custom-calibration for the ECM to manage the performance of the next-generation R2300 ROUSHcharger®.

As is standard with all new ROUSH Mustangs, both cars will come with the anti-wheel hop kit installed during the assembly process. This part (No. 401788) is an outstanding addition to any 2005-2010 Ford Mustang GT.

Both vehicles are covered by a 3-year/36,000-mile warranty and will be available with a manual transmission only. The 2010 ROUSH Stage 3 is expected to start production by the end of September; the 2010 ROUSH 540RH should start showing up on dealer lots in October.

It took Roush just 11 months to complete its latest creation based on the 2010 Ford Mustang and after 11 months of impatient waiting, Roush has taken the wraps off of its 427RT Mustang. Under the hood is a Ford 4.3L V8 that has been supercharged to produce a total of 435-hp.

That gives the Roush 427RT Mustang the ability to go from 0 to 60 mph in the low 4-second range with a quarter mile run in the 12 seconds range. Going from 60 mph to 0 takes less than 115 feet.

In addition to the car, ROUSH now has more than 150 different parts which fit the 2010 Ford Mustang and allow buyers to personalize their vehicle according to their preferences.

Roush said that it will offer three versions at launch with prices ranging from $34,847 for the Stage 1T model and $43,051 for the 427RT.

ROUSH® EXPANDS PROPANE VEHICLE LINEUP WITH UNVEIL OF LIQUID PROPANE INJECTED F-250 PICKUP

LAS VEGAS (January 22, 2009) – Hammering home their success in offering a propane-powered truck, ROUSH® Performance unveiled yesterday at the 2009 International Builders’ Show the next product in the lineup – the 2010 ROUSH Liquid Propane Injected F-250.

The ROUSH propane-powered F-250 immediately received considerable interest among the attendees who had been looking for a medium-duty truck that could offer both lower operating costs and greenhouse emissions.

According to research provided by the Propane Education and Research Council (PERC), propane is the most widely-used alternative fuel today, with more than 10 million vehicles around the world using it as a fuel. Operating costs typically range from five to 30 percent less than those of a gasoline-powered fleet, and on average create 20 percent less nitrous oxide, up to 60 percent less carbon monoxide and fewer particulate emissions.

“We have had tremendous interest in the ROUSH propane-powered F-150 and sold several hundred vehicles and conversion kits, but more than that we had people tell us that they would be much more interested if there was a medium-duty pickup available,” said Joe Thompson, vice-president and general manager of ROUSH Performance. “With that in mind, we went to PERC who has been our strong supporter in developing propane vehicles and took the next steps to expanding the ROUSH lineup with the F-250. It is gratifying to see that the response has already been so positive.”

With deliveries anticipated to start in the third quarter, ROUSH will make this product available in two forms; customers can choose either a complete ROUSH-assembled vehicle which will have a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty, or a conversion kit to fit existing trucks in the field which also carries the same warranty. The conversion kit will also fit 2009 F-250 pickups that may be in service.

The order banks for both the vehicle and the conversion kit, both of which are true OEM-quality in terms of engineering and materials, will open on January 26. Among the components changed are the fuel tank with multi-valve fuel pump, stainless steel fuel lines, billet aluminum fuel rails, an upgraded custom ROUSH PCM calibration, and all necessary wiring, hardware and instructions.

The kit will have a retail price of $7,995, and qualifies for a federal tax credit of $5,000. There are also a number of state, regional and local tax credits and rebates available for the purchase and implementation of alternative fuel vehicles. Additionally, propane prices per gallon are normally significantly much lower than gasoline or diesel, and with the proper infrastructure in place a fleet user can qualify for a 50-cent tax credit per gallon used.

The ROUSH propane-powered F-250 will come standard with an in-bed tank offering 62-usable gallons of fuel. This will allow a range of approximately 500 miles depending on the chassis and driving habits. A under-bed propane tank will be available (with a range of approximately 250 miles) for users where range is not as important as bed capacity.

There will be no loss of horsepower, torque or towing capacity on the ROUSH propane-powered F-250 as compared to the truck’s gasoline-powered equivalent. The truck will have all federal, CARB and Canadian certifications.

ROUSH has long been considered as Detroit’s foremost Tier 1 advanced powertrain engineering company and well known for producing massive horsepower from gasoline engines. Now this same company has turned their resources towards helping fleet customers save money and reduce greenhouse gasses by utilizing propane as an engine fuel. The company launched a propane F-150 in 2007 and has plans for several additional vehicles over the next few years.

ROUSH has announced its second aviation-themed Mustang paying homage to the legendary World War II fighter planes. The 2009 P-51B Mustang joins the P-51A (seen last year) in ROUSH’s aviation inspired pony cars. The P-15B Mustang will see a limited production run of just 51 units but ROUSH is quick to say that it may build some extra units for the press and testing.

Power comes from a 4.6L supercharged V8 that pumps out 510-hp with a maximum torque of 510 lb-ft. Performance was increased with upgrades to the clutch and custom-calibration for the ECM to manage the performance of the TVS2300 ROUSHcharger. ROUSH also added 6-piston brakes and its Stage 3 suspension for extra stopping and handling power.

Appearance wise the 2009 P-51B Mustang comes in Vapor paint with Olive Drab green stripes. ROUSH designers added black-chrome wheels, a ROUSH vent pod gauge with a boost gauge, Cooper RS3 high-performance tires, a rear decklid and ROUSH’s 6-piece aerobody kit. Inside you’ll find P-51B badging on the shifter ball, floor mats and the leather seats.

Pricing for starts at $65,800. All ROUSH cars are available with a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty.

ROUSH 2009 P-51B Mustang:

A class action lawsuit was filed by Drew Conner of Bardonia, N.Y. and at least 100 other buyers, accusing FoMoCo and Roush Performance products of producing at least 100 more units of the 2007 Roush Stage 3 BlackJack. The owners claim that they paid $59,000 for their cars last year after Ford advertised only 100 units of the special-edition model would be made.

“The vehicles purchased by the plaintiff and the other class members were not as unique or rare as the defendants had stated them to be,” the complaint said according to Reuters. “Their value from scarcity and as collectors’ items were and are dramatically less than the buyers had been led to believe their value would be.”

The members of the class are seeking a jury trial and more than $12 million in damages. As if Ford didn’t have enough problems on their hands.
