New Ford Shelby GT500 2009 : Reviews and Specs, American Muscle, Draws too much attention Traded in my 2008 ZO6 Corvette and never looked back. This car is what an American Soprts Car should be. Had a reflash on the computer done along with a Cold Air Kit and Longtubes and the car now puts over 600HP on the pavement. Also installed the FRRP Handling Pak and this thing just runs away from EVERYTHING on the track at Tx Motor Speedway, not to mention the winding back roads of the Tx Hill Country. Also have a 10 second TimeSlip from Alamo Dragway in San Antonio. The really cool thing though is that I can still eek out 20mpg on the interstate if I keep my foot out of it. Think I'm going to have to buy a Steeda Q650 Mustang to go along with this Shelby just so Ill have one of each from the only big horsepower factory Hot Rods still made in America. Then next year I hope to aquire one each Roush & Saleen Mustangs just so I'll have one from all the Big 4 Mustang Builders. It's really a thrill to run away from all the foreign cars from Japan, Germany, Italy, Etc.. in a good old Mustang, The original American Pony Car!
The 2009 Shelby GT500 is a 2-door, 4-passenger sports car, or convertible sports car, available in two trims, the Coupe and the Convertible.
