The Ford Mustang has been known as the king of muscle cars because while there are others trying to steal away its crown, credit due to the Dodge Challenger for their Hellcat and Demon monsters, the Mustang will always be the alpha male of the pack because of its stardom and muscle that can't be outwitted, outplayed, and outlasted.
Alas, the time has come for Ford to deliver their last play to the speedo boys who are loyal to the Mustang legend; the ultimate Mustang known as the Shelby GT500.
Having won this car in the Series 32 Horizon Summer Playlist, it's time to have a word with the ultimate snake in the world.
Based on the sixth-generation Ford Mustang, the Shelby GT500 is the most powerful road-going Ford ever made because the 5.2L Supercharged Cross Plane Crank V8 engine produces 760hp of power output and 625ft-lb of torque. Mated to a TREMEC 7-speed Dual Clutch gearbox, it's capable of hitting the 0-60mph mark in the mid-three second mark and a quarter-mile in less than 11 seconds. Apart from its tire-crushing performance it delivers, the GT500 runs on the near-similar aerodynamics as the GT4 racecar as well as the optional carbon fiber pack for lesser weight and more enjoyable driving experience. It features next-gen magnetic dampers that allows the GT500 to have the best lateral acceleration of any Mustang experienced.
Supercharged muscle cars don't care about collateral damage or error because being one of the most coveted machines a speedo boy would die for, it's all about spreading freedom and liberty with real American values, some noise, some burnouts, and the idea that they can eat almost everyone in a drag strip...unless if someone turns up with something more powerful than them. The GT500 is one of them and although not as powerful as the Dodge Challenger Demon, which is revered as the ultimate king of muscle cars in ages, it is still as Republican as any American-made muscle car can get. It's all about striking first, asking questions never, and the GT500 will show no mercy to any car that gets in its way.
To showcase its "strike first, show no mercy" approach, the GT500's facing some crazies in the streets of Edinburgh for a street race. Finally, some off time for me. Got the tape ready?
That's Cobra Kai, the Mustang way.
The Mustang GT500 really is the ultimate Mustang ever made and I'm glad I got my hands on this supercharged snake on steroids that strikes its predator without explanations. Now that I had my fill on the GT500, I can't wait to think about what should I do next with this king cobra.
Enjoy your new ride.
