Roush 2005 Roush Mustang Registry

Picked it up today. Trailered it back then dropped the u-haul trailer off and drove it about the last 12 miles home. Runs good but I didn't get on it at all. Tires are very bad so took it easy.
So anyone know anything about 05-2225? Trying to find some history. Have the Carfax and it's clean with no accidents reported. Shows 28,500 miles and the Carfax supports that. Has some type of aftermarket cams cause it has a nice chop. Chrome valve covers, FRPP intake, FRPP 62mm TB, shorty headers and a custom tune but the tuner is missing. Also has a Steeda CAI. Not sure about rear gearing yet but seems a little on the higher side so will check that out. But plan to call the most recent dealer listed on the Carfax and see if I can get any info, which I doubt, but worth a try.
I contacted Roush a few weeks ago before I made the deal and they confirmed it is a Sport. Looks like 1 of 203 2005 black coupes with a manual trans with dark charcoal interior.
BTW-car spent it's life in Virginia, PA, Ohio and now back to PA.

Thanks for any info!

Car apparently has 4.10's too. Tires are 27.7" tall new but worn out now. At 2500 RPM in 4th gear I'm at 50MPH. Gear ratio calculator shows right around 4.10. I also verified the speedometer by GPS so it's accurate too
 
Anyone have the measurements for the placement of the rear ROUSH window sticker? Previous owner removed both the front and rear decals so I ordered new ones. Our convertible has them but with the differences in the rear windows between the two I figured it would be best to get the measurements off a coupe. Car is a 2005.
Thanks!

Got it. Found and image on the internet and did my own 'measuring' to get it close
 
Can you check a Roush mustang? Looking at buying it, don't have the VIN yet but its Roush number is 05-0386? One thing I don't understand is it has a regular Mustang GT gas cap on the back, also has a black and yellow Roush interior and also has a Roush supercharger, none of which I think are original.

Sorry, I don't have 05-0386 matched to a VIN. Once you get the VIN let me know, I might have some notes on the car and if nothing else can advise on some production stats/info. Just need the last 6 numbers of the VIN, if getting the whole VIN is an issue. I can tell you a low 386 Roush number will most likely be a late Feb or early March build car and most likely is a forklift holed car. Well worth snatching up. Also the early cars like that you can find some "custom" ordered cars, like ones with IUP which after a while Roush just got the cars all optioned the same from Ford.

What's the VIN on your new black Roush 05-2225? I may have some info but I need to match the VIN to the Roush # to find it.
1ZVFT82H955227407. I contacted Roush and they confirmed it was a Sport but other than that not much. I did call the last garage listed on the Carfax and he told me the car used to belong to his wifes cousin and that all mods were already done when he got the car. He said the tuner and dyno sheets were all in the trunk when he sold it but they are gone now. He said he never had any issues with the car.

Here's my notes:
03/18/24 28,174 miles, dealer South 5th Avenue Marietta, Ohio asking $20,999. Aftermarket 5 spoke wheels, hood pins, quarter window louvers, no stripes, no hood scoop, chin spoiler, correct style S1 gas cap although this is a Sport. White faced gauges, has small silver pony on stock leather seats, roush billet shifter, stock radio, S1 dash plaque, shaker 500, Ford Racing intake plenum, Steeda CAI.
04/26/24 no changes
05/28/24 no changes

Here's some production info:
Born on date - 08/13/05
Roush cars built this day - 20 all cars were Sports (of which 8 were UA paint code)

Sorry not much info on this car.

Thats it...lol. Are you able to get the name of the dealer that had it? I'd like to try to track down the tuner and dyno sheets but I know thats a longshot.
Also, Both of our Roushs are Sports but both have the S1 dash plaque and S1 'gas cap'. Is that normal? For the record our convertible (05-1673) has all of the S1 stuff added to it. I found out the original owner worked for Roush so i was wondering if he had his buddies do some sort of 'trickery' when building the car?
And FWIW I paid $17,000 for 05-2225. I added some stuff so up to about $19,000 on it now. Car is spotless but I do want to get it paint corrected and ceramic coated. I think I got a pretty good deal on that one? I have put about 600 miles on it since I got it.
