Yes, there are 99-04 Roush V6's.

100%, absolutely, they exist... and while I'm not an EXPERT on Roush's, I suspect that it is real. Otherwise, it is a relatively elaborate fake given the kit, side exhaust, and most importantly the wheels.

+1 I would hammer the price down because of the mods. Never, never let mods raise the price. I wouldn't do it.

Well, since we were talking about 99-04 and technically 99-04 is SN95 as well, I thought you were wondering if there actually was a 99-04 Roush V6, still.

If you were referring to my response to the "They made 20 in 1994" comment, I wasn't saying that Roush DIDN'T make V6 Roush's from 94-98... I was saying that it was Saleen that made a V6 "Sport" back in 1995 (only ~24 of them), and then never built any V6's again.

Hopefully, I've actually responded to your intended meaning, because it wasn't clear to me

It MIGHT not be real, but no one has come up with anything even remotely definitive, yet, to prove it's fake.

You're thinking of Saleen... not Roush.




Based on what?
it has a tan interior no roush has ever come with any color other than black or charcoal, it also has mustang still engraved on the rear bumper which the v6 roushes didn't as well as sporting the wrong hood, and no dash plaque,
it also doesnt have the window etching telling the stage and signed by jack roush

established by former Ford engineer Jack Roush in 1988, had been known for providing performance parts, vehicles and engines. In 2001, the company introduced three packages for the Mustang. Stage 1 came with 17-inch wheels, a lowered suspension and a side-mounted exhaust system. In addition, it came with an air dam, side skirts and a rear spoiler. Stage 2 was an upgraded Stage 1 with 18-inch alloy wheels and BFGoodrich Comp T/A Tires. The suspension was extensively modified with Bilstein shocks, High-rate springs, stiffer anti-roll bars and new control arms. Roush claimed it achieved 1.0g lateral acceleration and was on par with the Porsche 911 Turbo. Both Stage 1 and Stage 2 came with V6 or V8 engine options. The top of the line was the Stage 3, with 360 hp (268 kW) and 375 ft·lbf (508 Nm) of torque. The Stage 3 platform was essentially a heavily modified Mustang GT. The Ford 4.6 L V8 was upgraded with an Eaton supercharger, a new intake manifold, high performing fuel injectors, an air-to-water intercooler and a lighter flywheel (on the manual transmission only).[3] The Stage 3 was available in three packages: Sport, Rally and Premium. In 2004, Roush released a limited edition mustang known as the 440A. This was a Stage 3 Roush with the addition of custom 440A interior, Roush braking system, and a rear exhaust system instead of the side-mounted exhaust system. The 440A model was released in 2004 to commemorate the 40 years of Ford Mustang production. Only 40 Roush 440A Mustangs were produced and all were sold at a dealership in Florida, USA. Roush also claimed that this model produced 400 horsepower (300 kW), a claim that has been argued by some who claim that the engine was dyno tested at 360 hp (268 kW).

Yes they did. At least for the first few years, the Stage 1 and Stage 2 cars simply had add-on "spats" on the stock rear bumper.

It's the stock V6 hood. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm not sure it isn't there because window is heavily tinted and the pics aren't definitive. Also, not EVERY Roush-modified car has that.


Again, I suspect that it IS REAL.

That dealership is Brandon Ford... the largest Roush dealer in the World... just a few minutes from my house. And yes, the 440A's make ~360whp. I've seen several only the dyno that Roush brings down every year. Kinda sucks when my friend's bone stock '03 Cobra put down 371whp on the very same dyno and day.

check roush records all roushs came with black or charcoal interiors the 440A may be an exception since it is the anniversary edition but other that that ford didnt send off premium interiors to specalized dealers,

every v6 roush I have ever seen hasnt had mustang engraved in it

v6 roush had the the roush hood (the heat extraction or whatever)

all got the plaque period, it was set behind the shifter and if it came off it would have been replaced it had the production number on it

and you can see the etching through tint all 99-04 have it.

it is a good looking car but it isnt real
