Shelby GT500 Super Snake Mustang
Shelby Automotive has finally confirmed that they do plan to produce a Super Snake GT500 Ford Mustang in 2008. The company revealed their plans this month and stated that a very limited number of GT500 Mustangs will undergo the transformation process to Super Snakes. The option will be available both for coupes and convertibles.
“At Shelby Autos, we believe that life needs more,” said Amy Boylan, President of Shelby Automobiles. “That’s why we’ve teamed up with the best in the business to offer a Ford Shelby GT500 with even more punch. Working together, we’ve developed one mean pony car that puts out more power and balanced performance than any other American production car on the road.”
The Super Snake is considered to be one of the most collectible and highly sought after Mustang modifications in existence. So far, exact pricing has not been determined, but the models featuring 600hp are expected to retail for around $28k, with the 725hp models reaching up to $32k.
“We’re always looking around the corner for new ways to deliver balanced performance that’s unlike anything else on the road,” said Jamie Allison, Manager of Ford Racing Performance Group. “The GT500 Super Snake package, with its higher horsepower levels and balanced track-inspired tuning, satisfies those demands and then some … in a uniquely Ford – Shelby way.”
The special package will include enhancements at the performance level to bring the engine up to either 600 or 725hp. The 600hp model will come with the Ford Racing Supercharger and will include a special warranty. According to the company it will also include a, “Ford Racing handling pack including Dynamic adjustable dampers, lowering springs, tuned stabilizer bars, and front strut tower brace is standard for the Super Snake, Ford Racing Supercharger upgrade kit producing over 600 HP and 590 ft.-lbs. of torque, Borla exhaust system on the 600 HP Ford Racing Super Snake Package.” The 725hp model will not come with a warranty but will feature extra performance enhancers.
“Carroll Shelby is always telling our team that life needs more,” said Amy Boylan, President of Shelby Automobiles. “That’s why we’ve teamed up with leading companies like Kenne Bell to leverage their expertise and develop exclusive parts for our post title packages. Working with our performance-driven partners, we’re going to deliver one of the most exciting cars in the world.”
“We’ve been working with Amy Boylan, Gary Patterson and their team to develop an optional high performance supercharger kit for the Super Snake package,” noted Kenne Bell Company CEO Jim Bell. “Ford engineers built a phenomenal engine for the Shelby Mustang GT500, so it’s exciting to have the opportunity to take this amazing machine to the next level. The optional Super Snake package we developed, showcasing over 725 horsepower, will include an upgraded drive shaft, a billet twin 75mm throttle body and boast one of the most powerful superchargers on the market.”
