Dunno.. big power but the basis isn't the best out there.. cheap isn't always better I guess... :bah:

I like the retro cues to the car design. But honestly the Mustang to heavy to be thought of a sports car. It doesnt do anything for me!
Uncool sadly!

I love this car, its character and what it stands for, it represents america in a way. I love seeing a normal mustang (which is very rare here) but when I do, its sucha hugh car and looks like its bursting with power. So if I ever see a GT500 id wet myself!
Sub-zero! in england at least

uncool, Ford is abusing the Shelby name in my opinion.
Does have good looks and huge power, but the Ford unreliability is still there

Ford would've never used the name if Carol himself didn't suggest it; and sign off on it.
Big power, mercedes levels of weight, and unfortunate engine sound under stock conditions. Great design. great fun. As the mustang should always be.
cool, as a v8 mustang always is.

^lol at all you well it doesnt deserve the shelby name or abusing the shelby name...
You must be too young to remember the 80s.. They even had a shelby dodge dakota pickup.
Seriously uncool.. Take a half way decent cheap car.. Make it extremely overweight (way more then its rivals), throw in an engine that is from a truck, and tack on 2 excess names (gt500 and shelby.. how much can they etch out of this).. You get a recipe for a car that is poor.. Im not a mustang fan to begin with admitedly, but there are severaly mustangs I would take long before this hype machine.

Quite nice car the problem is that it doesn't have 500hp! How can you call your car GT500 if you don't have 500 hp!!!
Racing strip always a must on cool mustang

Top gear reported measured hp @ the rear wheel... 440 hp at the rear isn't so bad.... the car is 100% slightly under rated.. meaning, it makes about 515 hp SAE.
