The latest 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 provides the most potency and sophistication ever for a Ford SVT-tuned performance Mustang with a quite a few shockers, also. “The 2010 Shelby GT500 demonstrates Ford’s continuing commitment to high-performance vehicles,” said Ford group vice president, Global Product Development, Derrick Kuzak.
“In addition to the numerous performance and refinement improvements inside and out, the 2010 Shelby GT500 based on the new Ford Mustang is an estimated 2 miles per gallon more fuel efficient on the highway. We’re proud of the many enhancements that were developed jointly by the Ford and Shelby Automobiles team last year that we’ve now incorporated into the new 2010 Shelby GT500,” said Carroll Shelby the founder of Shelby Automobiles. “Building on what we learned to create the Shelby GT500KR, this new car offers a great combination of power, handling and braking. It is truly a special car that is a great deal of fun to drive.”
The Special Vehicle Team of Ford utilized the profits generated on the 40th anniversary edition Shelby GT500KR “King of the Road” Mustangs as the starting point of performance and started from there. The design team, with an approval to the initial Shelby Cobras from the 1960s, takes those design patterns even beyond with nuanced enhancements in both the coupe and convertible, each of which brags a more sophisticated inside. “Working together on the KR, the Ford and Shelby teams developed new systems to continually improve the iconic Mustang,” explained Amy Boylan, Shelby Automobiles president. “Those lessons learned are incorporated into the 2010 Shelby GT500. This approach will help maintain Mustang’s leadership position at the front of the pack and make the ownership experience even more enjoyable.” More details and plenty of photos after the jump!
