I know it has been a while since i posted anything. i just got back from iraq and i am looking at two cars. one is a stage 3 roush and the other is a 427r. both are 07 models and both are going for about the same price. which car is the better buy? which one will be worth more 10 years down the road. and well which one do you guys think is COOLER to have and drive? this will be my daily driver. thanks for the input

If it was up to me I would go with the 427R. The car seems to be alittle more exclusive then the Stage 3 Roush. I think Vista blue is a killer color too and the pics on the Roush website look fantastic. As a daily driver it will be a blast to drive as long as you live in a climate that is warm year round. I would hate to have drive that thing in the snow. Not to mention premium gas all the time will get expensive, but well worth the grin it will put on your face. And if you are military try and work a deal through WWW.ENCS.com, they are very good with helping you find the car you want at a locked in price. They can provide you with the best deal I think you will find anywhere else. You can save alot of money that route.

I am glad you made it back safe from Iraq. I am not American but I appreciate you putting yourself in harms way for the country I live in. You can't go wrong with either car but the 427 is the way I would go. Of course, I must ask if you have looked at a Saleen? The PJ will be a good long term car to own. IMO

Of the two asked ... Stage 3.

Although the greatest difference is in the options sheet. That is purely up to you, what you want to do to the car?
Opitioning either won't net you a lot of savings, so it's really a matter of choice.

Welcome back, soldier. Apache driver?

Watevrpal, I just read the brief article on the 427R in Modified Mustangs....most horses available in any Roush yet....good stuff! I think that would be my choice.
