Overview
Roush
is proud to introduce the 540hp 2012 Stage 3™ Mustang. The powertrain
of this vehicle features the 5.0L 4-valve DOHC TiVCT engine further
enhanced by the R2300 Roush supercharger, feeding 10psi of intercooled
energy to the already robust Coyote engine. The Roushcharger increases
the base horsepower from 412HP to an impressive 540HP. Roush stands
behind this system with an impressive 3 year/36,000 mile full powertrain
warranty.
Not only can you feel the power in your gut, but you
can hear it with your ears. The innovative off-road Roush exhaust system
featured with this vehicle explores the limit of how mean a car can
sound, and given that the system has a unique hollow-chamber muffler
design, the sound won't change over time like a conventional fiberglass
packed exhaust would.

The performance of this behemoth doesn't
stop with the engine. High-performance Cooper tires (2XS or utlra high
performance RS3 tires) aid in acceleration, cornering, and safely
bringing the car back down to zero MPH when necessary. The suspension
system consists of finely tuned Roush front struts, rear shocks, front
and rear springs, front and rear stabilizer bars, jounce bumpers, and
anti-wheel hop kit.
A new feature of the 2012 Roush Stage 3
introduces is the color options package, allowing for personal
customization of three different aesthetic elements of the car: 8
choices for the base vehicle color, 6 graphic colors, and 6 graphic
accent colors. The result is an impressive 288 unique color combination
possibilities. The Roush graphics used on the 2012 RS3 introduce
metallic flaking into the automotive paint grade striping, providing a
breathtakingly deep tone that looks more like custom paint that applied
graphics.
Beyond the Stage 3’s paint and graphics, the color
options continue with two paint options for the high performance brake
calipers. The ever-popular Roush Red will continue to be a color option
for the 4-piston, 14-inch rotor system, as will black painted cailpers
of this system. The wheels of this vehicle also features new color
options, with the all new 20-inch Hyper-Black or 20-inch Chrome Wheel
selection.
The
RS3 comes fully-loaded with body styling upgrades, including the Roush
front fascia with driving lights, chin spoiler, side rocker splitters,
rear valence, rear deck-lid spoiler, and newly designed square exhaust
tips. Interior enhancements include Roush leather seats with an
embroidered Stage 3 logo, four-piece performance pedals, Roush
illuminated sill plates, newly designed shifter ball in either black or
white, and a new interior Stage 3 badge with the car's serial number
engraved.
