Another Shelby GT500 limited edition is on the way and this has to be the ultimate Mustang or as I like say it’s Kong. Ford and Shelby Autos are teaming up once again to produce a limited number of Shelby GT500 “Super Snake” Mustangs with horsepower numbers in the 600-725 range. The “Super Snake” package will be available on 2007 and 2008 GT500 Mustangs with the basic package pumping out 600 horsepower with the addition of the newly developed Ford Racing Supercharger upgrade kit.
You may have to take this news story at face value because it’s from a forum post on LS1.com and then reposted over at Stangnet.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) the Ford Mustang ranks in a tie for the eleventh spot on their list of the Most deadliest vehicles on the road with 150 deaths per million vehicles. The list was gathered from vehicles on the road between 2002 and 2005 and all the vehicles range in year from 2001-2004.
I know what you are thinking and your probably asking yourself why does a V6 Mustang need a performance clutch. Well because these days you can take a stock V6 Mustang right off the dealer lot and add some bolt-ons, a supercharger or turbo to make as much if not more reliable horsepower and torque then your basic GT for thousands less. It’s a scary thought for most GT owners but it’s the plain simple truth that there are V6 Mustangs running around that could give some GT owners a run for their money.
Yesterday Ford officially released the news via a press release about the new Shelby GT500 Red Stripe appearance package along with a bunch of new photos for each color.
