At SEMA this year ROUSH introduced the Roadster, a head-turning droptop ‘Stang that is now available through authorized retailers. If you want one of the two-tone beauties, you’d better get to it, because ROUSH is only building 100 of ‘em, and Jack sure sounds like he’s going to keep one for himself (see the attached press release). That still leaves 99 cars. The car’s two-tone finish features black on top and Torch Red, Redfire, Vista Blue, Silver or Grabber Orange on the lower portion. A pinstripe separates the colors, and the result is very, very good-looking.
All cars also feature a Roush light bar, lowered suspension, and 20″ wheels. Buyers can give their Roadsters performance to match their appearance by selecting the optional ROUSHcharger upgrade, which bestows the 4.6L V8 with 415-horsepower when mated to a 5-speed manual. Further augmentation in the form of custom interior bits, a short-throw shifter and more can be added to further personalize each car to the owner’s tastes.
To the lucky few who’ll park one of these sleds in their garage, know that we’re painting ourselves a color that’s not available for the cars themselves: Envy Green.
Check out the full press release after the jump, and feast your eyes on the Roadster in our gallery.
