For those who don't visit the 05 forum much, here is the 05 Roush.

It has the 65 "gills" next to the headlights, and louvres over the rear sideglass. Check it out.

I would hardly call it rice.

Did they do anything performance wise or is it all just for looks? If it is all looks there it's definitely a rice bomb just by pure definition.

I like the spoiler, but other than that, it looks tacky and cluttered.

it does look like a mustang II, i have always thought that. i'm glad to hear some else say it. not complaining.

The bumper sticks out too far.

what's up with the wing in the back? looks like the tail is at some crazy angle. i don't like that.

the fastback window vents are cool, very nice.

the slats in the headlight bucket and the scoops or whatever in front of the front tires are gay.

non-functional scoops are gay period. why have them if they don't work? isn't that the definition of rice? i'm not saying that one isn't functional, but alot of them aren't.

Roushes stages are like 70% looks and 30% performance.

Yeh I guess.

I also agree that it is a little cluttered.

My definition of rice is a car that looks like it has 300hp, but is really just a hampster being stung by a bee. Also bad taste mods are rice I guess, but the 05 GT is WAY too plain for my liking, this livens things up.
