When I saw the Roush Stage 3 BlackJack prototype go across the auction block at Barrett-Jackson in January I said to myself when are they going to build this evil looking monster. Well are prayers have been answered so to speak with ROUSH annoucning a limited run of a 100 Stage 3 BlackJack Mustangs, which have already been pre-sold through ROUSH-authorized Ford dealers. The protoype BlackJack fetched $82,500 with all the fees at BJ and in my opinion was a steal for the winning bidder who got the first of a limited run Mustang from Roush.

The Roush Stage 3 BlackJack Mustang was the vision of racing legend Jack Roush who says he takes pride in knowing he had a hand in something this special.

"I am involved with all the vehicles that Roush Performance builds, but the Stage 3 BlackJack is really the first one which was entirely my design and I am quite proud of how well it turned out," said Jack Roush. "When I drove the prototype around the NASCAR tracks last season it got a lot of attention, mainly due to the intimidating theme of the car. Of course, the distinctive rumble of a ROUSHcharged V-8 engine turns a lot of heads, too. "

The BlackJack Mustang sports an evil looking black-on-black paint combo with an engine to back up the look pumping out 430 horsepower and 400 lb. ft. of torque by way of a Roots-style M90 supercharger. All the Roush goodies accompany this Mustang including 7 piece aerobody kit, Polished billet aluminum accessories, such as radiator, oil and strut tower caps and a Roush wheel hop reduction kit. The interior gets charcoal leather seating with an embroidered Stage 3 BlackJack logo, white electroluminescent gauges, billet aluminum pedal kit and short throw shifter with black shifter ball.
