| Roush 427R Mustang |
Yet again raising the standards in the Mustang world, Roush Performance unveiled the new 427R model with a
total of 427 horsepower under the hood and ready to unleash with the
turn of a key. This is the most horsepower ever offered on any version
of the ROUSH Mustang.
The number 427 has been intertwined in the Ford product line for many
years, both as a car model and one of the most powerful and legendary
engines in their line. It is only natural that ROUSH, as perhaps the
best Ford engine builder in the country, is the company to reintroduce
the number to the automotive lexicon using modern engine technology.
Based on the acclaimed ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang, this version is slightly
less in content but includes 100 percent of the fun factor. The 427R
horsepower package is highlighted by the intercooled ROUSHcharger*
system which adds 115 horsepower and 65 lb ft of torque to the base Mustang GT
4.6L, 3 valve V8 powertrain system. The additional power comes
via a ROUSH-engineered ECM calibration which has been specially-tuned to
work in harmony with the different exhaust system used on the vehicle.
Further adding to the style and performance of the 2007 ROUSH 427R is a
four-piece aerobody kit which includes a stylized front fascia, front
chin spoiler, hood scoop and rear wing and ROUSH 18-inch cast chrome
wheels with high-performance tires and the special 427R striping kit.
The sports-tuned suspension includes all new front struts, rear shocks,
front and rear springs and sway bars and the jounce bumpers. Each
component was designed for both comfort and performance by the
industry-leading ROUSH automotive engineers.
Authenticating the vehicle are special ROUSH fender badges, decklid
emblem, a serialized engine bay plate, and a ROUSH engine build plaque
personally engraved by the technician who upgraded the car in the
Livonia, Mich., facility. The ROUSH 427R is available in both coupe and
convertible versions, and a complete listing of the content can be found
online at www.RoushPerformance.com.
To assist customers in creating their own personalized one-of-a-kind
vehicle, a variety of options are also available which include white
face gauges, interior carbon fiber design dash trim kit, short throw
shifter, door sill plates, and ROUSH sport leather seating.
"The new ROUSH 427R is a natural extension of our product line," said
Joe Thompson, general manager of ROUSH Performance Products. "It has
more horsepower than any car we have produced in our company's history
and I expect that this will become one of the most popular vehicles that
ROUSH Performance has ever offered."
