Switching over to the 'DARK' side

[bottlfed92]

In moments, I am leaving for the bank to wire the money to the present owner of my new car.

A 2002 Stage 2 ROUSH is filling the empty space in the garage once BOTTLFED leaves for good, this week. Quite a bitter sweeet situation. But the aquisition of the ROUSH will make the bid farewell alot easier.

I know, I know....It's not a '5.0'. But, it's a 10,000 mile, unmolested car with lots of potential!!
I'm trying to find a cheap flight from buffalo to SC or GA (Savannah) to drive it back next week.

What d'ya think guys?

looks like a pretty good car to start with, i dont know if i would want to park it in place of bottlefed but it should be a good place to start.

 

[bottlfed92]

It's an empty canvas. It will be tough to fill BOTTLFED's shoes. But, I'm pretty excited to drive this thing.

meh, i dunno its a roush, bottle fed was something no one could duplicate, and where ever the car went people knew whose it was and what it was.

Jeff - i thought you were going 93 cobra?? wtf??


OHH and the roush ............

i'm not a big fan of Roush appearance mods, but that looks to be a pretty clean one. what are your plans for it?

 

[bottlfed92]

The green coupe was recognized everywhere it went. Very cool and flattering at the same time. It took alot of work to achieve that. At this point in my life, I'm not up to it. I simply don't have the time any more. A 2 and a 5 year old keep me hopping and because of that, I only attended 2 shows this year....It sucked. I'd detail the car up for the show and wouldn't drive it between then and the show because I knew what I would have to do to get it to 'show condition' again...Hardly worth it for me. I have nice 'driver' now, in my opinion.
Not sure yet. I know they aren't for everyone. I personally love it and can't wait to dip into it. No idea as for what mods are going to be done to it yet. that will take a few nights of sitting in the garage over a few rye and diets to come up with those plans. LOL.

That Roush is way more sick than you could probably ever make a Fox. Sorry, but it's true.

 

[bottlfed92]

I definitely like the looks alot more. The fact that somebody could have the identical car may be a bit of an issue for the first little bit....But that'll change.

you will be 2 hours from me.

Id rather have the roush myself I tried to swing buying a 99-04 Saleen, but financially it wasnt something I could afford doing. Grats on the new car. I hope Bottlfed found a good home.

Hey im driving to PA on the 26th of this month, I can bring it to ya .
Seriously

 

[bottlfed92]

I live in Ontario, Canada. Otherwise I might've taken you up on your offer. LOL.

 

[RUNINAGT]

I can meet ya still, less distance for you to travel anyway.


OK then let me just go test drive it for ya to make sure it something you want to spend your money on.

Car looks good. There is a lot of potential there for something that will drive, handle and feel better than the old car. Not quite as personalized, but like you said, you can enjoy it more so as you won't be so worried about driving it.

If your on your way back and find yourself heading through CT let me know (well let me know in a PM ahead of time) we can possibly meet up somewhere for a bit and look at the cars.

Good luck with it.

Nice find! I have always loved the look of the 2001 up roush!

 

[stprorolla49]

Is the car located in Savannah? I go to school at SCAD in Savannah, I'd love to check it out!

 

[Ozz]

nice car. I was worried when you said DARK SIDE that you were gonna post pics of a Chevy

I'd rather have Bottlfed but it's not up to me so who cares. For a toy, I want something personal, and I'm sure youll get this that way as well can't wait!

Those New Edge Roush's are sweet, looks like you're gettin a really nice car.
