Roush Motors Prices??

[PANAVIA]

Guys-- one thing we are forgetting here is the sheer number of options from Roush.

I have a spreadsheet with the different configurations --all 178 of them. -and the 20-25 options that can be ordered on any config.

They have configuration options to support SPF, Backdraft and Shelby CSX cars out of the Box ( er --uh-- Crate). The fantastic thing about the Roush Motor is the R&D,Support and documentation that you get with this.

I wouldn't call them Crate Engines, --I would call them "Create Engines"

Pricing to the public as a Roush dealer is a "contracted sales price" that you are (as a Roush dealer) not superposed to go below. -- and if you do ---you are probably in the red on the transaction, and will have to close as you cant pay your electrical bill.

Put it this way ; margins are so thin on this type of business that we cannot extend the sale on a credit card --as the 2% to 3% credit card fee would place us in the RED on certain combos.

The Revenue on this sale is Labor/Install -- maybe a little bit of margin on the top-end engines with the 8 stack EFI, but there are so many soft costs that you have to absorb, that it probably nets out.
