Roush Performance has long been known as one of the leading manufacturers of aftermarket parts for the venerable Ford Mustang so there was no question when Ford unveiled the 2011 Mustang GT with its new 5.0L V8 engine late last year, that Roush would soon have something up its sleeve for the new pony car. Not one to disappoint, today Roush unveiled the first in what is likely to be a long line of Mustangs based on the new car. Meet the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang featuring 525 supercharged horsepower and a handling package to back it up! Full press release below.
Make no mistake, the 2011 Roush 5XR is a runner. With the R2300 Roushcharger installed the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang will sport an astounding 525 horsepower under the hood, along with an ground peeling 465 lb/ft of torque. To keep the exclusivity high, there will be a maximum of just 150 units of the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang built, each with a 3 year/36,000 mile warranty on the powertrain and Roush components. The 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang is available in both coupe or convertible form, but only with a six-speed manual transmission.
"I'm always excited to get an opportunity to work on a new engine, and the Ford 5.0 liter is a great platform. It has 412 horsepower to begin with, but our group was able to coax out another 113 horsepower with the Roushcharger. The 2011 Roush 5XR runs fast, sounds great, and is another amazing addition to the Roush Mustang heritage" said Jack Roush, chairman of Roush Enterprises.
To handle the road, a Roush suspension kit has been installed to provide superior handling and ride control. This includes front struts, rear shocks and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars. The car rides on Roush 20-inch chrome rims with high-performance Cooper RS3 tires.
The installed Roush exhaust with square tips gives the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang a deep, throaty sound worthy of a supercharged American V-8 muscle car. The aggressive Roush body kit changes the appearance of the car so people know that this is not just any Ford Mustang prowling the roads. The appearance upgrades include a Roush front fascia with driving lamps, front chin splitter, side rocker splitters, rear valance and three-piece decklid spoiler. A Roush upper billet grille streamlines the front of the vehicle and provides some additional cooling to the engine, and a unique 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang graphics package trims out the appearance of this limited edition vehicle. Badging unique to this vehicle can be found throughout the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang.
One thing that makes this car different from previous Roush Mustangs is that the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang will be sold only as a post-title vehicle. This means that the authorized Roush-Ford dealership must pre-sell the car to a customer or title the vehicle before the order can be placed in the Roush system. The 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang is not available for sale in California. A letter of authenticity, personally signed by Jack Roush, will be sent to each buyer of the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang. The 2011 Roush 5XR package carries a suggested retail price of $15,390 in addition to the cost of the base Mustang chassis.
In addition to the rich collection of standard features, a variety of upgrade options are available for the 2011 Roush 5XR Mustang, including color-matched sport leather seats, big four-piston brakes with 14-inch slotted rotors, vent pod gauge, and a lower three-piece billet grille.
