INAUGURAL 2023 NEW ORLEANS AUCTION: 2010 FORD MUSTANG GT ROUSH STAGE 3 FASTBACK – NO RESERVE
This 2010 Roush Stage 3 Mustang GT is powered by a 540hp R2300 Roush supercharger 4.6-liter V8 engine with 510 ft/lbs of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. To get this type of power from the Ford 4.6-liter, 3-valve engine, Roush technicians replaced many of the internal components with stronger parts, including forged aluminum pistons with an increased dish to lower the compression ratio from 9.8 to 8.6, forged steel H-beam connecting rods and a forged steel crankshaft. The fuel rails are changed, as are the fuel injectors and an upgraded fuel pump. Roush also upgraded the clutch and included a custom calibration for the ECM to manage the performance of the next-generation R2300 Roush supercharger.
This vehicle is loaded with Roush body components, resonator exhaust, 4-piston front brakes with 14-inch rotors and painted rear calipers with slotted rotors, and the new upper billet grille, which removes the fog lamps and streamlines the appearance of the Mustang while improving cooling performance. The car rides on 20-inch chrome wheels with Cooper RS3 tires, which is one of the few options available on this model. The suspension package includes Roush front struts, rear shocks, front and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars and jounce bumpers.
The interior enhancements include Roush leather seats with an embroidered Jack Roush signature, four-piece performance pedals, Roush illuminated sill plates, short-throw shifter and a new interior Stage 3 badge with the car’s serial number engraved. As is standard with all new Roush Mustangs, this car comes with the anti-wheel hop kit installed during assembly. This is #87 of 103 produced in 2010. 1,319 miles (mileage not indicated on title). Offered with No Reserve during the inaugural Barrett-Jackson New Orleans Auction, September 28-30.
