2007 Ford Shelby GT500 Base

The 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 represents a landmark moment in American muscle car history: the triumphant return of the Shelby name to the Mustang after a 40-year absence. Finished in a menacing Black Clearcoat exterior, this instant collector's car builds 500 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque from its supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine.

At the heart of this modern legend lies a cast-iron 5.4-liter Triton V8 featuring an Eaton Roots-type supercharger with 8.5 pounds of boost and a water-to-air intercooler. The engine benefits from aluminum four-valve cylinder heads sourced directly from the Ford GT program, along with forged pistons and unique connecting rods to handle the immense strain. This formidable power is channeled through a Tremec six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential with 3.31 gearing, launching the GT500 from 0-60 mph in approximately 4.0 to 4.5 seconds.

The SVT-tuned suspension features MacPherson struts up front and a three-link solid axle with a Panhard rod in the rear, complemented by stiffer stabilizer bars and higher spring rates for neutral, aggressive handling. Stopping power comes from massive Brembo front calipers gripping vented rotors, while staggered 18-inch wheels wear 255/45ZR18 tires up front and wider 285/40ZR18 tires in the rear to put the power down.

Inside, the driver-focused cockpit features unique leather sport bucket seats with embossed Cobra logos, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with red stitching, and a brushed-aluminum accented gauge cluster with swapped speedometer and tachometer positions for optimal viewing during gear changes. The Shaker 500 audio system with a six-disc CD changer provides the soundtrack, while the blacked-out grille with the telltale Cobra emblem completes the aggressive exterior styling.

Engineered as the most powerful factory Mustang ever built at the time, this GT500 achieves an EPA-estimated 14 MPG city and 20 MPG highway. With its supercharged V8 symphony and iconic Shelby heritage, this 2007 GT500 stands as a true modern American muscle car legend.
