2008 Ford Shelby GT500
View Description
This stunning vehicle boasts a sleek Vapor Metallic exterior, accented with a pair of broad Black stripes that run from front to back. It's a great color scheme that's attention-getting without being over the top, as this definitely isn't a car that needs help attracting attention. Shelby's iconic design features complement its aggressive stance and bold presence. The mere mention of the Shelby name conjures up images of smoking rubber and exhilarating acceleration and this 2008 delivers on that expectation. Lurking beneath its striped hood is a 5. 4 liter supercharged V8 that's good for 500 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque. The engine is mated to a 6-speed TR-6060 transmission that's ideally geared to take full advantage of its performance and yet still offers a civilized driving experience in a variety of conditions. When Motor Trend tested the 2008 Mustang Shelby GT5000 upon its release, it clocked a 4. 3 0-60 time and yet its. 63 sixth gear ratio brings nice, low revs on the highway. Aftermarket trailing arms - that's the well-chosen add-on we mentioned earlier - makes for a bind-free suspension that delivers more predictable handling. That's not to say that this '08 needed help in that regard...
