2011 Ford Mustang

If you're a Mustang fan, then this Ford Mustang Roush 5XR is the automotive love letter you've always wanted. After all, the Coyote V8 was an awesome step forward that gave the pony car world-class power while returning the iconic 5.0 designation. So the power masters at Roush celebrated the debut of this powerhouse by making a special edition, supercharged the motor, added a sleeker style, and sharpened the handling.

2011 is the sweet-spot for the right Mustang fans. It was the final evolution of the retro-cool styling. So it was familiar yet sleekly aggressive. And of course, the people at Roush know how to turn it up a notch. They added an aerodynamic body kit that includes a new front fascia with more flair, a deep front chin spoiler, rocker panel moldings, and a distinct three-piece spoiler that hugs the rear deck end-to-end. It's such an aggressive style that the factory-correct Race Red paint seems aptly named. There have been portions resprayed to make sure it continues to have a vibrant style, and so we even like how it forgoes the 5XR stripe package. If an incognito kind of cool if less your thing, the stripes can also be ordered for the car. But the power dome hood, blackout grille, rear diffuser, large exhaust tips, and 20-inch Roush polished alloys certainly already do a fine job of announcing a distinct and powerful pony car.

The all-dark interior is both sporty and premium. This is an actual mileage car, so it's no longer pristine... but that does not mean abuse. It has the right look of a respected premium machine that comes loaded with air conditioning, a power driver's seat, power windows, power locks, dual airbags, side airbags, keyless entry/alarm, tilt wheel, and a powerful/premium Shaker AM/FM/CD/XM stereo. But more than just loaded, this generation gets its performance feeling quite right. The three-spoke steering wheel is a leather-wrapped unit with integrated controls for the hands-free phone, stereo, and cruise control. Plus, this special coupe has nice Roush performance atmosphere touches, like the special white-faced gauges and illuminated door sill. Plus, the upgraded shifter and added boost readout are there to get your enthusiast's heart pumping faster even before you drive the first mile.

Because this car was built as a celebration of the new motor, the engine bay has the kind of tidy style to be on full display. Even the valve covers are painted red to match the inner walls. The Coyote 5.0-liter fuel-injected V8 has received upgrades that include a RoushCharger supercharger. They build this correctly with the full supporting components like the cold air induction, intake manifolds, intercooler, and radiator all upgraded, too. Roush also gets into the computer and programs it to ideally run with these power upgrades. It means you get a full power package rated at a steady 525 horsepower and a whopping 465 lb-ft of torque. And this six-speed transmission means you are in firm control over all of this Mustang's added ponies. Plus, it's not just the motor that's been beefed up. The full package comes with a suspension kit that includes front struts, rear shocks, front & rear springs, and thick front & rear sway bars. Add grippy Nitto tires and four-wheel power disc brakes for a terrific total driver's package.

Currently on a rebuilt title, this comes complete with the owner's manual. The 5XR was made to be quite special, in fact, there were only 150 made (this is #19). So when you want supercar power and supercar rarity, you know you need this awesome power pony. Call today!!!
