The Stage 3 has always been the flagship of Roush's modified Ford Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/model/mustang) stable, and the supercharged pony car is making a return for 2012 with a new RS3 moniker. With 540 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque on tap, the Stage 3 replaces the 5XR (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/10/01/2011-roush-5xr-mustang-now-with-more-roush/) as Roush's most powerful offering.

Along with the extra power, the RS3 comes with a new graphics package that is available in six stripe colors and six accent colors, making for 288 color combinations. You can use Roush's new online configurator (http://www.roushperformance.com/2012-stage3-mustang-configurator.shtml) to see what colors like Luminescent Lime and Red-Blooded American look on the car and add optional items like the 20-inch Hyper Black wheels and rear three-quarter window louvers. The 2012 RS3 Mustang starts at $59,945 and comes standard with a 3-year/36,000 mile warranty. PR and full details after the jump.
