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

The association between the Ford Mustang and Carroll Shelby is a long and holy one. Since Shelby set eyes on the first-generation Mustang back in the 1960s, he knew it had potential. Naturally, the great man wanted to unlock that potential and set about making what we know as the Shelby Mustang. Although the great man is no more, his legacy lives on by Ford themselves doing him justice and providing eager customers with factory Shelby Mustangs. This 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is one such example from the fifth-generation Mustang. It’s got a powerful supercharged V8 and many enhancements to behold. Bearing just over 20,000 miles, this car comes from Needham, Massachusetts, and the owner’s manual is included with the sale.

Exterior and Interior

This particular 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 comes in black and is a drop-top, making it a gorgeous experience on clear days and nights. Of course, even if the weather is bad, the convertible top ensures that you’re kept dry. The car rides on a set of 18-inch silver alloy wheels behind which lie Brembo brakes. It’s also got Shelby Cobra badges, a rear spoiler, and dual exhaust pipes. The interior of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 comes in black and red, and is ready to accept up to four adults. It’s equipped with amenities such as air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, and power mirrors. You’ve also got the epic Shaker 500 audio system with a 6-CD changer and a powerful speaker system for your tunes. Meanwhile, the driver’s seat offers partial power adjustments too.

Engine

The 5.4-liter V8 under the hood of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is supercharged. So, it can deliver up to 500hp and 480lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels. A Tremec TR-6060 6-speed manual transmission allows keen drivers to really control the power delivery. Meanwhile, upgraded Brembo disc brakes were fitted at the factory to help corral the increased complement of ponies. These encompass 14-inch front discs with 4-piston calipers and 11.8-inch rear discs with single-piston calipers. The suspension also receives some tuning for a sportier ride and sharper handling capabilities.

1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop

Current Ask
$36,500

This 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop is the kind of early pony car that gets straight to the point: a compact coupe, a small-block Ford V8, a four-speed manual, and rear-wheel drive. Showing approximately 17,433 miles, this example is finished in Caspian Blue over a black reupholstered interior and keeps the classic Mustang recipe intact while adding just enough personalization to make it feel more driver-focused. The 289ci V8, Hurst shifter, manual gearbox, and clean first-generation styling give it the sort of analog character that makes these cars so enjoyable even decades later.
