The car you're looking at is a 2012 Ford Mustang GT Premium Coupe.  In fact, this is now a Roush Stage 2 Mustang that features enhancements to the exterior styling as well as the handling package via a host of carefully-selected Roush upgrades. The car is fully-loaded with more than $10,000 in Roush goodies and also comes with an Escort protection package, including a custom-installed Passport 9500ci radar and laser defense system, and more. THE TOTAL STICKER PRICE WITH ALL EXTRAS IS OVER $52,000!  Reserve price is WAY below the original price.

So, in addition to the Passport 9500ci radar and laser defense system with integrated display, Escort has outfitted the 'Stang with its QuickStart remote start and security system, which allows you to start, track and secure the vehicle from a smartphone, iPhone control interface and/or security key fob. The vehicle is also equipped with Escort's SEMA Award-winning SmartCord Live technology that uses the Escort Live network and version 2.0 app, which works with iOS and Android smartphones and provides many of the features in the radar detector connected version, including red light and speed camera alerts, speed trap locations, live traffic (iPhone), voice alerts and more.

And, it's a good thing the car is equipped with said devices because, although stage two is considered middle ground by Roush standards, the Mustang GT's 5.0 V8 already makes 412 hp and 390 lb-ft of torque and accelerates from zero-to-60 mph in about 4.5 seconds.

Styling upgrades include Roush's sixth-generation R6 “aerobody package,” which, in the front, consists of a new upper grille, high-flow lower grille, corner fascia aero pockets with driving lamps and a front chin splitter. The Roush rocker panels and rear fascia side splitters give the car a more aggressive, lowered stance punctuated in the rear with a three-piece rear decklid spoiler. Also in the back is a new rear aero valance that features race-inspired diffusers and integrates Roush's new dual-chambered chrome exhaust tips. Rounding out the exterior is a suite of Roush “R” and “Stage 2” badges. Inside, embroidered floor mats, a center console button and dash medallion help identify this as a special vehicle; Jack Roush's signature graphic can be seen on the dash and under the hood on a serialized Stage 2 plaque.

Roush chassis engineers have spent thousands of hours developing and testing to create a performance handling package that includes a larger, stiffer front stabilizer bar, twin-tube shocks with unique valving and increased spring rates. Furthermore, new bushings and a unique upper control arm translate to better contact and grip for the 18x10-inch cast aluminum five-spoke wheels with sticky Cooper RS3 ultra high-performance summer rubber.

“For more than three decades, the Escort and Beltronics brands have always signaled the very best driving technology available for radar and laser ticket protection,” said John Larson, Escort president and CEO. “We have established a history of going the extra mile to do more for our customers than anyone else – now we are putting someone in their very own 2012 Escort-equipped Roush Mustang.”

This car was the featured car at the Escort booth at SEMA for 2011 and 2012.  There are tons of pictures and videos of the car widely available documenting it's history on both Google and YouTube.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
