Follow along as Carroll Shelby demonstrates the level Ford will go to in their “Bold Moves” campaign. As part of Ford’s “Way Foward” plan, Shelby is helping to build a new Mustang each year. Plans include a new Bullitt, Boss, and of course the Shelby GT.

 

It’s interesting though that, even though this is a Shelby GT commercial, they chose to use the Hertz GT-H version. Anybody want a doughnut?


2007 Ford Shelby GT500

June 12th, 2006

2007 Ford Shelby GT500The collaboration between Shelby and Ford’s Special Vehicle Team (SVT) is yielding an instant collector’s Ford Shelby GT500 that builds 500 horsepower in its 5.4-liter supercharged V-8.

True to the original Shelby GT500, it will be available both as a coupe and as a convertible when it goes on sale in the summer of 2006.

“It’s one thing to put 450 horsepower in an exotic supercar,” says Shelby. “It’s another to put that much power in something as affordable as a Mustang. The fact that they not only met their goal but pushed on to 500 horsepower is a remarkable achievement.”
