I’ve put down a refundable deposit for one of these - I’ve got 2-3 months to make up my mind. The thought of a 5 year factory warranty with unlimited mileage was quite appealing.
I’ve since seen a review of a Stage 3 Rousch Mustang by Matt Farrah which wasn’t entirely complimentary. He thought the 700bhp felt more like 500. Does anyone have any experience of these? The car doesn’t physically exist at present to test drive. Thanks

Hi there. Whereabouts in Oz are you ? My son works for Ford and he built a car very similar 2 or 3 years ago - 750 hp with all the bits. I'm sure he'll be happy to tell you all about it.

Son no.1 says please talk to Rob or Chris Herrod at Herrod Motorsport - nice guys apparently - they will know the car my son has.

Thanks for your reply. The only slight problem is that Herrod motorsports are supplying and building the modifications for the R Spec, so I’m not sure their opinion will be completely unbiased!! That’s ok, I’ll wait for some reviews

Yep you're correct - Herrod were the guys who built my son's car and he was very happy with it. I think it may have been a prototype. Unfortunately, working for Ford, he's not allowed to discuss products, so my bad. Hope you understand.
