Roush fires up Stage 3 Hyper-Series Ford Mustang for 2012

A Roush-tuned Ford Mustang is a modern muscle car gone manic. Our own Drew Phillips recently got to spend time with the 540-horsepower 2012 Roush RS3, which straddles the performance line between the Boss 302 and the Shelby GT500. If you like the sound of that but are looking to get a vehicle that's even more exclusive, Roush now has you covered with its RS3 Hyper-Series.

The Hyper-Series cars have everything that the standard Roush RS3 wears as far as performance upgrades go. The Roush team decided to dress these coupes up a step further, however, by offering one of four unique exterior graphic and interior colour treatments. Buyers can choose between Mat It Mango, Gas It Green, Punch It Purple and Launch It Lemon. On the outside, a corresponding colour stripe accompanies the side graphic while the interior receives matching suede door panels, shift boot stitching and a pair of shift knobs. One knob is black while the other matches the colour choice of the vehicle.

Roush is only building 25 of each version, and each vehicle gets a unique serial number as well. The Hyper-Series hits the market beginning in October 2011.

Classy looking stripe!

ChadStang 09-22-2011 08:25 PM

Looks great. I imagine it will come at quite a cost if it is that limited though.

SNAKEBITE 09-22-2011 11:44 PM

repeating myself but lose the stripes

DublDee 09-24-2011 08:51 PM

Keep the stripes.....That's really sharp, and the contrast in colors is perfect.:tup

ChadStang 09-24-2011 09:04 PM

I'd like to see pics of the other color combos, Gas It Green would probably be my pick if it looks like I picture it in my head.

I'm with you on this one!!:cheers:

SNAKEBITE 09-24-2011 11:45 PM

I will compromise and keep the stripes as long as its paint

1low03gt 09-25-2011 02:38 PM

There you go, have them painted on. :tup

SNAKEBITE 09-26-2011 05:47 PM

paint is just so much nicer than the vinyl

Apocalypse Pony 09-27-2011 05:23 AM

Not usually a huge Roush fan, but this one looks not so bad. Only 100 made though. I'm actually good with the stripe too, but I'm wondering what it says on the hood?

SNAKEBITE 09-27-2011 05:49 PM

Hey, some of us can't afford paint.

Apocalypse Pony 09-28-2011 05:02 AM

Apocalypse Pony 09-28-2011 11:50 AM

That's wacky enough to work. Jeez, if I hadda spent two seconds thinking about it. Thanks dude.

I was talking more about the vinyl stripes on my car but don't worry, I can't afford a Roush either.

I'm honestly not sure but probably add about $1000 and a 1.5 month wait if they would even be willing to do it.

SNAKEBITE 09-29-2011 04:51 PM

Damn that is pricey = ouch

Yeah the body shops here are so busy with insurance jobs they aren't really into custom or resto work.

SNAKEBITE 09-30-2011 06:25 PM

the fire?????

Might be part of it but I think animal hits are the majority of their work. There are only 2 body shops and they are understaffed.

Apocalypse Pony 10-01-2011 04:31 AM

Good old law of supply and demand. Large demand, low supply, sounds like they can pick and choose the work they want to do. Do Insurance jobs really pay that well? God knows the Insurance companies make enough money with what they charge, and getting them to pay out is like pulling teeth !! lol

SNAKEBITE 10-01-2011 10:52 AM

yup 2 shops would be a problem

Insurance jobs don't pay well unless the body shop is creative and finds ways to get ahead.

or business backed up for several months i.e. hail storm damage
