All Things Chill

I own a 2000 Mustang and maneuvering a rear-wheel drive car in a Chicago Winter is a bitch. I never thought about buying one again… until I saw that. It’s so damn sexy and from what I read, it’s tough as nails too.

Just as the original Shelby GT500 was the “step up” to big-block power from the GT350, the new Ford Shelby Cobra GT500 steps up to Ford’s 5.4-liter “MOD” V-8. The result? The GT500 is the most powerful factory Mustang ever. Its supercharged 5.4-liter, 32-valve V-8 evolves from SVT’s experience with supercharging the “MOD” engine to deliver more than 450 horsepower and 450 foot pounds of torque.

Would I really buy it? Probably not. But if I did, I’d get it in a deep deep blue w/ the racing stripes. I just paid off Madison (my car’s name) last month and I’m happy that she’s all mine. I’ll be looking for an SUV when it’s time to let her go. We’ll see… there will be a lot of time to think about that. More info and pictures from RSportsCars can be found here.

w00p w00p!
