This crisp 600hp Shelby GT500 has been tastefully modified, boosted with power, and presents showroom fresh with just 2,598 miles on the odometer
Looking sinister in black and accentuated with red leather interior and white racing stripes, this is not a car that blends into the crowd!
Power comes from a 5.4-liter supercharged V8, tuned to 540 rwhp. Output is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission.
Modifications to this Shelby Mustang include a healthy horsepower boost, performance exhaust, and stylish cosmetic upgrades.
The included accident-free Carfax history report documents the low mileage as well as the long previous ownership of 16 years out of Oklahoma.
Called "S197" internally, the fifth-generation Mustang launched for 2005 with a retro design, a new platform, and an available 24-valve V8 engine. Extending the wheelbase gave the Mustang a much more compliant ride than its predecessor, though it remained true to the pony car ethos that characterized the original model. Production ended in 2014, when the "S197" passed the torch to the current-generation Mustang.
Ford rekindled ties with Shelby to transform what was envisioned as a replacement for the Mustang Cobra into a 21st-century GT500. Massive power, huge brakes, and heritage-laced styling cues were part of the package. A certificate shown in the photo gallery indicates this is one of 8,152 Shelby GT500 coupes made for the 2007 model year.
