And then there were 9: ROUSH 600RE bites the dust

Supercars and less-than-super drivers can be a dicey situation, as evidenced by the rash of Enzo Ferrari wrecks last year. The Ford GT in standard form definitely qualifies as a supercar, and the ultra-limited 10-car run of modified versions dubbed 600RE by Roush Europe ratchets up the exclusivity even further. Sporting a pulley upgrade and new Tubi exhaust among other things, the 600RE was rated at 612 HP post-modification. That appeared to be too much for the unlucky driver of this 3-day-old Roush 600RE, #3 of 10. That third day was its last, unfortunately, and following a £145,000 insurance payout, the car is being offered as a parts lot on eBay. Someone's going to be able to put together one of the meanest kit cars ever with these leftovers.

Roush 600RE launches in Europe

Look! It's a Roush....and it isn't a Mustang! Roush Europe has pulled the wraps off its new Ford GT-based 600RE for Europe and the UK. It's super-limited -- only 10 will be built, and on the technical side, the conversion includes a pulley upgrade for the blower, Tubi exhaust, and a transmission oil breather. Appearance modifications include black powder-coated wheels, a lighting package, tinted glass, and the expected limited-edition plates and badging. Engine hoses get the color-coordination treatment as well, and optional 4-point harnesses are available for the car's two occupants. No power number is given, but we wonder if the car's name offers a clue. Roush Europe doesn't give a price, either, but you know how that goes: if you have to ask...
