Well it seemed about as slow as a v6, but it was definitly a v8 saw the engine and plus it sounded pretty damn nice. Wish they made side exhaust kids for F-bodies

Cool, so maybe it was a GT with a Roush kit of some kind, and the kid was stupid and put stage 1 on it ... who knows, but as it has been said many times....

Stage 1 = v6
Stage 2 = v8
stage 3 = S/C'd v8

Go to Roush's website. Stage 1's can either be a V6 or V8, so you're both right. A Stage 2 is nothing special either, side exhaust along with some other options. Still a friggin mustang....

I sell Fords, and my take on Roushis that they over priced mustangs. Stage 2 is Body Kit, Side Exhaust, Intake, and Suspension Mods. GREAT handling car, but not worth the 11k that Roush charges.
