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...
