Those are sick. Is that the one with the new motor? PLEASE LOWER HER!

HPJunkie · 12-01-2011, 06:10 PM

Great looking ride ! Slap a 2.8 Kenne Bell on it and call it a day.

Should be in Webster dictionary as definition of "Sinister".....
Great ride!

venchka · 12-03-2011, 09:49 AM

Buy a polarizer for your camera. Loose the gawdawful plumbing between the dash and the rear view mirror & the black box on the windshield. Loose the black box. Don't repeat the same redundant photos. 2 or 3 should be sufficient to get your point across. Provide a link to more photos for anyone interested.

Ok, so I'm splitting hairs. The car deseves the best presentation. Yes, I'm envious.
Enjoy!

Wayne

ps: Keep the Mustang garaged. Period. No excuses.

3.4 or 4.0 whipple ftw. My 08 Shelby made 790 to the wheels at 6400 ft. corrected elevation with a 3.4.

BenzoBoi · 12-08-2011, 09:33 PM

Pretty sinister!

Great pics....

They are 550 bhp right? Basically a more practical Ford GT. Really nice ride.

Baby Gorilla · 01-16-2012, 12:54 PM

I approve

K-A · 04-06-2012, 06:41 PM

AWESOME.

OneOfaKindTrini · 04-09-2012, 09:11 AM

What a monster, is this the one with 650hp?

absent · 04-14-2012, 09:08 AM

i would love to get the new one(with 650hp) but my wife is such a snob and would never allow it.....

K-A · 04-14-2012, 09:13 AM

Seriously.... 650 HP in a Mustang (or anything street legal).

Should be illegal. Nutty a$$ nutts power.

500HP is plenty power. 650HP must be insane

sharknodi · 01-05-2013, 01:46 PM

Costs less than SLS, produces more power than SLS BS, looking fantastic, what else can I say. You must enjoy driving this car. Makes C63 ordinary DD

karkrzy · 01-05-2013, 02:22 PM

I bought a 2011 Shelby GT500 and only kept it for 2 tanks of gas before trading it in for my 2011 C63 with P31. The C63 is a way better car in my opinion. The Shelbys Trac Pac with the Goodyear tires is garbage. On a cool day the tires have absolutely no traction at all. Don't be to jealous until you have driven both and not just for a test drive. Go to the Shelby forum and you will read the same about the tires. Also the C63 is more rare than the Shelby and is actually quicker 0-60 than the pre 2013 cars. Also it is only a Ford.

sharknodi · 01-06-2013, 07:01 AM

I know it's just a Ford, but I think 0-60 is around 3,5s, C63 can't beat that. Except the tires, I think it's a great car, and price per hp is unbeatable.

action · 02-13-2013, 01:28 AM

I bought a 2013 gt500 last week...returning it this week. The engine, tranny, and diff are phenominal but the suspension is pure garbage! drives like a tuna boat!

It's unfortunate that car is so imbalanced. That power on that chassis is just such a mismatched, it's almost a joke. Kind of like a big huge bandaid.

How do you "return" a new car though?

karkrzy · 02-14-2013, 10:09 AM

I am happy to read that I was not the only one that thinks tires and suspension are garbage on the Shelby. May have big horse power and bragging rights but I buy a car to drive and enjoy. Only faster than a C63 when in the hands of a professional driver.. My opinion only..
