Overview of 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible For Sale by Owner

The relationship between Ford and Shelby is one that’s lasted since the ’60s. Even though the great man Carroll Shelby is no more, his company, Shelby American, continues to tweak and tune Ford Mustangs (and other vehicles) to reach new heights in performance and capability. One of the most prominent Shelby Mustangs of modern times is the GT500, which was based on the fifth-generation Mustang. We’ve got one of those cars for sale here, a 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible that packs just over 20,000 miles on the clock and awaits your consideration in Massachusetts. Why not pick up this car and make it your own? It’s definitely suitable as a weekend toy, and it can even be used on a more regular basis.

Exterior and Interior

This 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible is a drop-top and comes in a gorgeous shade of black, with silver double-five spoke alloy wheels. The menacing lines and retro-modern design of the fifth generation Mustang is beautifully embodied by this car, and enhanced by the Cobra motifs that adorn the front grille and side flanks. At the rear, the Cobra is proudly displayed in the car’s fuel filler cap, while twin tailpipes protrude from beneath the rear bumper valance. There’s also a discrete rear spoiler for that added bit of performance cred. New tires have been installed as well. The four-seat interior of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible features red and black leather-upholstered seats. Then, there’s power windows, power mirrors, power door locks and air conditioning. You’ve also got a digital AM/FM/CD stereo head unit with a 6-CD changer, hooked up to a decent speaker system. There’s also plenty of trunk space despite the power-operated convertible roof mechanism.

Engine

This 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible enjoys a supercharged 5.4-liter V8, paired with a delicious Tremec TR-6060 6-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive for a true driver’s car experience. The engine’s factory figures are claimed to be 500hp and 480lb-ft of torque. You’ve also got power steering and power-assisted ventilated disc brakes from Brembo on all four wheels. The car also receives performance-tuned suspension to set it apart from a regular fifth-generation Mustang in terms of handling.
