New Shelby GT500 Mustang - 500hp.

[dmontzsta]

They just announced it will have 500hp and 480tq. I am willing to bet that is underrated slightly. They do not want another 99 Cobra incident to EVER happen. Ford does it right AGAIN, that is a bang for the buck, I hear it will be less than $40k?

They are also coming out with a special run of Parnelli Jones Mustangs. They will have the DOHC 5.0 (cammer) motor with a shaker hood scoop! 370hp and 370tq.

You have to love that they are bringing back the Hertz edition Mustang.

I need to rent one and take it to Vegas. Here is a video of Carrol Shelby punishing one.

I almost bought a Hertz original in 1993 but opted for a GT 500, 427 sideoiler instead, Man do i wish i still owned that, it hauled ass . Anyway these stangs are cool, especially the Hertz model NSF

I saw one on the way to work today. It had just got on the 40 from proving grounds rd and was cruising behind a masked superduty. Wish I had the camera with me.

Ford sucks. I hate them, they dragged me through a 2 year lemon law case only to settle with me at the 11th hour. They step all over people and don't sive a sh!t about the little people.
...But, I must admit, they have hit a homerun on the new mustangs. If I hadn't said (under oath) that I will never own another Ford again, I would be buying one of these for sure. They have totally won the "retro" wars with the Dodge's falling flat and the Camaro's not due until 08 or 09? (Good move, Chevy).
I love Mustangs but hate Ford.

Was by the "Factory" last week. Shelby had 5 car trailers being off loaded with mustangs and had a bunch lined up on the floor also. Looks like he will be busy for a while.
