2008 Ford Mustang

Gateway Classic Cars of Houston is proud to offer this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 KR. 2008 marked the return of the Shelby GT500KR, the most powerful production Mustang ever. 1011 units were produced that year, but demand for the "King of the Road" was so great, that Ford green-lighted another year of production. The KR's supercharged V-8 produced 540 horsepower, 40 more than the standard GT500, and includes a short-throw shifter, taller, 3.73:1 rear axle and unique wheels, tires, and suspension settings. A special composite hood with hood pins, and unique stripes and badging set the KR apart from normal GT500s. This KR features 265 Original Miles and is 1 of 476 produced in this color combo.
