P51 or P51?

Back in March I went to Barrett Jackson and saw 2 different P51 Mustangs. 1 was made by Roush and the other by American Tuning. Supposedly American Tuning is getting a patent for the name P51 since they came up with it first. So I was wanting to know which P51 everyone else thinks looks better. I personally like the American Tuning P51.

Roush P51
American Tuning P51

Well it actually looks like a P51. All Roush did was put a green stripe on and like 3 stickers where the Roush emblem would be.

I like both of them. The Roush is, well, a Roush and that is saying something. I like the "nose art" on the finder of the other one though. Cool as hell.

I think Rouse is going to get the patent, because he works close with the real P51 in making replacement parts for them. He also owns 2 P51 himself.....

Well when we talked to the guy he said everything else is stock. Told us you can buy the kit for 11K or buy one of their already made GTs for 25K.

All the AT P51 is, is a body kit. I like it for the looks, but I would take the power of the Roush.
