  • Fun in the fast lane - 2007 Ford Shelby GT500
    By -

    I paid msrp for my Vista Blue GT500. It was worth if. I have a SVT Cobra and didnt buy this car because of the Shelby name. I have always want to see what a SC 4V 5.4l would do in a Mustang. My car will not be a garage queen. I picked my car up in MI and drove it 1600 miles back to FL in 19 hours. Only gripe was the car is to quiet. Didnt sound like a Mustang should. Very fun; cant wait until more parts come out and we start seeing the GT500 putting down 500-600 rwhp.

    If you have one of these beasts, you fall in love with it at first sight and it just gets better after that. Performance is next to none. Comparisons with the Z06 are a joke as this cars collectors status will be here long after the Z06s are in the junk yard. I was literally blown away by the power this thing generates right off the assmbly line. I cant imagine what some after market mods will do. I was one of the lucky ones who got mine at MSRP, but I can tell you that even at 1$0-15K over, I think its worth the investment.

  • Excellent Performance for the money - 2007 Ford Shelby GT500
    By -

    This has to be the finest performance car I have ever owned! I have been fortunate to own Corvettes, 350Z, Z3, TransAms, Mustang GTs, even a 67 GT390 Mustang and this car is the best of them all. I purchased the car USED with only 2400 actual miles and have not been disappointed. The Shelby had a full Roush exhaust system installed on it before it left the Ford dealership and it has a terrific sound. Far better than the stock system I test drove on other cars. The gas mileage is excellent and as stated on the window. For anyone looking at one of these cars the performance and handling are terrific. It does have the wheel hop under hard acceleration but the TCS work good.For the money buy it!

  • A TRUE Muscle Car - 2007 Ford Shelby GT500
    By -

    First for the naysayers I put on just a few miles then went straight to the chassis dyno. How does 460+hp & 445lb ft of tq @ rear wheels sound? Thats PURE stock, not a single change from stock. Same dyno a very healthy 426 Hemi made 310hp @ wheels; thats 150+ rwhp over a HEMI! Nothing short of incredible overall. I would take this car over 2 Z06s. Fit & finish is SUPERB! Paint is the nicest I have ever seen on an American car & I am a body man/painter. Not a single complaint. Minor mods put these cars in the 10s in 1/4 mile. Braking & handling are also nothing short of incredible. 60-0 110ft. A very nice chassis with too many changes over standard Mustang GT to mention.

  • Ive waited 40 years for this... - 2007 Ford Shelby GT500
    By -

    I am 53 years old and owned older Mustang muscle cars in the 60s and 70s but nothing like this car. When the TCS system is disengaged, the raw horsepower is frightening. You better be ready for whats about to happen when you step on it. Its hard to drive it and not put your foot in it every time you stop and take off again. Ive never ridden on the space shuttle but I cant imagine the rush being any greater!

    Have had a great time driving this car. Horsepower is incredible and handling is much better than I expected. Have had no problems so far, gas mileage has been in the high teens - but who cares! A well designed car - good job Ford, another winner in a great Mustang heritage.

  • In love with my Shelby - 2007 Ford Shelby GT500
    By -

    I love this car. I owned 4 others over the years. This is one great car. I have to be careful because you dont realize your doing 80 or better while tooling along. We took a trip to Vegas in her and she cruised along like a dream. I dont know to say but this little red is a keeper.

    I am 62 and it is the most fantastic car that I have owned. There is no equal. I have done several upgrades to the hp. it sounds fantastic and its speed is exciting.

    The car is everything I thought it would be and more. I was surprised by the amount over invoice I had to pay. Horsepower, handling, 0-60 its all good. No remorse whatsoever about the car.

    I have owned this Shelby since Nov 06. I just love to drive it and hear the whine of the supercharger. I have a cold air kit and tune installed and it really woke up the performance of this car. Ive also had it on track in Sebring Florida drivers school. It was a blast to drive.I get 16 MPG in town and 21 HWY at eighty. Had some clutch issues that Ford fixed. So far this is the most fun car I have ever owned. There are plenty of aftermarket parts to dress up your pony car the way you like it. And if you want more power, add a different supercharger.
