EXTERIOR
This snake definitely bites with everything from the lightweight Trufiber hood to the muscular wheel arches enhancing the appeal and finished in unmarked and gleaming Ebony Black, (Code UA). Unashamedly brash, the Le Mans racing stripes have definitely been earned with Shelby GT500 side rocker stripes hinting at the power, but for absolute confirmation, the wing badges proudly boast 5.8 Supercharged and 662 HP credentials! A minor chip to the bonnet edge is barely noticeable in an otherwise virtually unmarked, low mileage and enthusiast owned example. From the bonnet scoop and standard fog lights upfront to the stainless steel dual exhaust with quad four inch tips emitting a deep bass bellow as the revs build, this really is the ultimate performance Shelby Mustang.

INTERIOR
The cockpit is amazing specified with the optional and race-inspired Recaro leather trimmed sports seats with Cobra logo all unmarked. Illuminated SVT 20th Anniversary Edition sill covers greet you when opening the door. The sleek double-brow dash with conical lenses in the instrument cluster is a throwback to classic Mustang and the message centre allows you to view everything from g-forces to quarter-mile and 0-60mph times in up to 125 custom colours in the MyColor interior cluster background. Spotless door and boot shuts with all identification stickers still attached and 14,687 miles make this example extra special and one for the collector.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Based on current production models and manufacturer data at the time, advertising literature claimed the 2013 Shelby GT500 was the most powerful production V8 in the world! The Ford 5.8L DOHC all aluminium powerhouse is fitted with a huge Eaton 2.3L supercharger to produce 662bhp and 631lb-ft torque at 4,000rpm. The magnetism of the rumble will exceed 200mph and propel you to 60mph in 3.5secs should you dare! Fitted with the optional SVT Track Package the Tremec 6-speed manual has a transmission cooler with internal integrated mechanical pump to enable quick changes and to take full advantage of launch control. The high performance 260mm large clutch disc and pressure plate is reassuringly heavy to handle all the power and specified with the SVT Performance Package you also get the desirable TORSEN differential with helical gearset. A real superhero!

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Premium painted forged aluminium wheels measuring 19 X 9.5 inch up front and 20 X 9.5 inch to the rear are shod in premium Pirelli P Zero 265/40 ZR19 and 285/35 ZR20 tyres with ample tread. Red Brembo 6-piston calipers grip huge 15-inch vented discs to the front and 13.8-inch discs to the rear doing a fine job of stopping this vicious beast.

HISTORY FILE
The Shelby GT500 was developed by Ford’s SVT division, (Special Vehicle Team), the same engineers responsible for the Ford GT and F-150 SVT Raptor. It is a fitting tribute to the late Carroll Shelby and the last vehicle he was involved in before his passing. This example was declared new at first registration on the 1st November 2012 in the UK, so offers piece of mind that it has always lived in the UK and is not a later import with unknown international history. Enthusiast owned and present at many American and Classic Car Shows this epic example has covered just 14,687 miles from new. Serviced by renown American car specialists, American Muscle in Edinburgh, there are nine service entries stamped in the book and an absolute advisory free MOT history. All handbooks, spare keys and SVT black leather folder are present.
