That's a great-looking Roush Stage 3 but the price seems a bit steep, and you might want to do a VIN check to see if it has a clean title.

I would not buy any used car without looking at it in person and hearing it run first! This price my be a bit more than I'd pay for this car, I'd say between $30-34K depending on the options it has. I'd like to see the Roush sticker for it. You can figure $7600 for the Roushcharger if you can install it yourself, closer to 10K installed. What is book on a stock 2014 and figure the difference. Plus seats, exhaust, suspension....
I met a gentleman last year at Road America who had just purchased a very similar 14 Roush RS3 with 6000 Miles for $36k.
You can contact Roush Performance to confirm the VIN number and that it's a true Roush and not a clone. https://www.roushperformance.com/

I just looked at the ebay ad for it and the car looks legit and pretty clean, drivers seat look a bit worn for what he claims "show quality inside and out" but I'd still go check it out in person before purchase...
This could be an aluminator, ask Roush that when you call em.. that would make the value a bit more...

I just looked at the auto check and last service listed was for transmission...
he's only had the car 4 months and now selling it.....

Even with the Aluminator option, all these still had the MT-82 trans, right? Hard to believe that transmission would have much longevity with the power.

I believe only like 3 Roush automatics with were built with the aluminator that year.

I was thinking more about the equivalent manual on the 13/14 GT500 . . . TR6060, right? By comparison, the MT82 is junk.

Now this is the way to start a video.... explains the Aluminator package on the 2014 RS3

After watching this video and looking at photos of the car in question, it does appear to be an aluminator, has the aluminator badge... and oddly enough this car in question started in Midland TX....

50 bucks please.....;) just kidding....

38 grand for that old barge are you kidding me

I saw a GT350 going for 35. Just have to make sure it doesn't burn a quart of oil every 200 miles - which may not be possible to determine.

hate to say it, just expect it to.

there will never be a cheaper more cast off bastard child of the bourgeoisie than the latest gt350. Everyone is going to scramble into a gt500 so fast it will make your head spin. I foresee people paying 50k over sticker since ford won't be able to keep up with demand. Money is flowing fast and loose!!
