stage 2 redoes the entire suspension/brakes/tires

a premium mustang sticker price is 37k after taxes + 7k for the supercharger, plus another 5k for the suspension/tires, thats 49k, add the cosmetics and interior costs in stage 1, viola 55k.

god math is hard.


#1 tires and suspension DOES NOT cost 5k

the tires they put on that mustang are 250 a pop = 1k
a GREAT coilover set is 2k
and front + rear sway is about 500 from hotchkis

thats 3500 bucks
and interior + shitty useless cosmetics is 6 grand?


37K = 7k + 3.5K = 47.5k

still almost 10 grand less...

Building your own will always be cheaper then having a company build it for you there is not arguing that.

A company obviously wouldn't do that because they wouldn't make money.

honestly do you not own a fucking computer with google to look shit up?

37k (mustang gt) + 7k (supercharger) + 650 (hood) + 1.2k rims (4 of them obv) + 1k (tires) + 425 (grille) + 200 (chin spoiler) + 400 (spoiler) + 2.3k (coil kit) + 580 (exhaust) + 2.5k (brembos)

grand total = 53k and change.

here is where you can check prices, this is where i got all of my info, minus the tires/rims: http://www.americanmuscle.com/11-13-mustang-parts.html

and here is where it states the cost of the upgrades ontop of the gt: http://www.roushperformance.com/vehicles/mustang-2013-stage3-components.html

maybe im missing the mod list where they give u brembo brakes.

and you DO NOT need those exterior or interior mods, all they do is add weight and look hideous. stop acting like u know what ur talking about. fucking guido cunt.

its called marketing , all they do is throw all these useless mods on your car that they get for dirt ass cheap and in bulk and toss them on your car to make you think your getting more than just a supercharger with some suspension mods and new tires.

see, i knew you were mad, but damn bro, chillax, your jimmies are all rustled.

i know all the exterior mods are useless, based on aesthetic preferences, but i just wanted to point out your pricing of the roush was very inaccurate, that was the entire point. yes it is a marketing ploy to make money, dont disagree with you there, however that brings me back to the "youre wrong" aspect of my last few posts.

it might be close to the same price if you get all of the extra mods they toss on. but its still worthless. at maximum what u need to get is a supercharger, tires and suspension. the wheels are not needed, im sure the stock ford wheels are just as strong, if not even stronger, maybe just a little heavier, in which case you wont even notice 20lbs on a 500+ hp car.

stock tires are crappy tbh, i changed them first on my car. i also hated the stock rims, so it was a must to change, besides rims are what add a uniqueness to your car.
