Is the 707 horsepower Dodge Hellcat too weak for you? Do you miss the 662 hp Shelby GT500? Do you love the sensual whine of a supercharger pulley? Well, a Ford dealer in Ohio has the car for you.
Lebanon Ford of suburban Cincinnati is a Roush Performance dealer, and has decided to offer the base 2016 Mustang GT with a Roush Stage 2 supercharger for under $40,000.
This undercuts the Challenger Hellcat by nearly $25k, meaning you could pick up a new Fiesta ST with the difference, or perhaps a few sets of tires. You’ll need them.

And the mpg is.......?
Did not know that, but not surprised.
They used to be made in Mexico.
I know a lot of auto components have taken the journey from USA mfg to Mexico mfg to China mfg. China taking jobs from Mexico exacerbated our illegal influx problem.
Now I’m seeing smaller China stuff that has moved on to Vietnam and Indonesia continuing to seek lowest labor costs. The bigger stuff that is heavily tooled takes longer to move.
Did not know that. I’ve had no trouble with reverse.
Probably something south of 5mpg at full throttle, and not much above that any other time.
