What have we got here? Is it KITT, then? Well, not quite. It’s the exact model of Shelby Mustang used for the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider – the GT500KR. Contrary to belief, KR actually means King of the Road. It’s a term that pays homage to the original 1968 GT500KR, a fearsome, Cobra Jet toting machine. Today’s 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR features a supercharged Modular V8 under the hood to really get your pulse racing. In case that isn’t enough, this 1,400-mile machine from Iowa also has the Shaker 1000 audio system, Shelby GT500KR forged wheels and even a carbon fiber rear spoiler and front splitter. You’d better not waste any time, then. Only 1,712 units were made, by the way.
Exterior and Interior
Wearing a proper black suit, this menacing 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR comes with silver Shelby GT500KR forged wheels, a carbon fiber front splitter and a carbon fiber rear spoiler. The car also packs black racing stripes and 40th Anniversary badging in case you didn’t know that the original GT500KR was a 1968 model. All in all, it’s a sure-fire head turner even amidst today’s modern machines, and a car that will definitely become a classic very soon. Already, prices are on the uptick, after all. The black interior of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR is endowed with ambient lighting, air conditioning and the famous Shaker 1000 audio system. Pop the trunk and you’ll see the system’s dual subwoofers taking up a small bit of cargo capacity, but not much, thankfully. The steering wheel wears the iconic Shelby Cobra motif while the manual gear shifter comes in white cueball-style. There’s also a builder plate on the dashboard, and the car can seat up to four adults. Yes, it’s pretty practical.
Engine
The supercharged 5.4-liter Modular V8 that moves this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR is a real brute. It can make up to a reported 540hp and 510lb-ft. Remember, back in 2008, this was supercar territory. A 6-speed manual transmission sends power to the rear wheels. Brembo brakes ensure that bringing this beast to a stop is equally easy.
This 1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop combines classic first-generation Mustang styling with a desirable 289ci V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. The odometer shows 7,768 miles, though the total mileage is unknown. Finished in Red with White racing stripes over a Red and White interior, this example has the right visual attitude for a vintage Mustang, while features such as front bucket seats, a wood-rim 3-spoke steering wheel, air conditioning, power steering, and an aftermarket Alpine audio head unit make it easier to enjoy on the road. With its C-code-style 289ci V8, manual gearbox, and traditional hardtop body, this Mustang offers a straightforward blend of classic muscle-era character and driver involvement.
This 1969 Ford Mustang Convertible Restomod takes the unmistakable shape of a first-generation Mustang and gives it the kind of hardware enthusiasts actually want to use. Showing approximately 54 miles, this build combines classic open-top Mustang styling with a 451ci Windsor V8, a 5-speed manual transmission, and rear-wheel drive. The Blue/Silver exterior, black soft top, chrome wheels, hood scoop, and custom interior give it a strong period-inspired presence, while the upgraded drivetrain and modern conveniences make it far more than a stock cruiser. For someone who wants vintage Mustang character with serious V8 attitude, this restomod checks a lot of the right boxes.
This 1992 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 takes the lightweight Fox-body formula and turns the performance dial well past stock. Showing approximately 80,783 miles, this example is powered by a 347ci stroker V8 with Edelbrock electronic fuel injection and backed by a Tremec 3550 5-speed manual transmission. Twisted Wedge cylinder heads, upgraded valve springs, an Edelbrock EFI intake manifold, heavy-duty water pump, and aftermarket engine-management components all point to a build centered on stronger naturally aspirated performance. Add in SVE wheels, Nitto NT555 tires, upgraded brakes, and an aftermarket exhaust, and this LX becomes the kind of modified Fox-body that speaks directly to Mustang enthusiasts.
The Ford F-150 is already one of America’s most recognizable pickups, but this 2022 Ford F-150 Shelby takes the familiar platform in a much more serious direction. Showing 45,615 miles, this truck combines a well-equipped Lariat-based F-150 with an extensive Shelby American performance package. Its centerpiece is a supercharged 5.0L V8 tuned to produce 775 horsepower, backed by a 10-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive. Shelby also transformed the chassis and appearance with a BDS suspension lift, Fox shocks, 22-inch Shelby wheels, bodywork, graphics, and a long list of Shelby-specific details. The limited-edition numbered plate identifies this example as #22ST0086.
Few vintage 4x4s have the enthusiast following of the first-generation Ford Bronco, and this 1971 Ford Bronco Restomod takes that classic formula in a decidedly performance-oriented direction. Showing approximately 2,242 miles, this build combines a 302ci Ford Racing crate V8 with a Holley 570 CFM Street Avenger 4-barrel carburetor, a 3-speed manual transmission, and four-wheel drive. Finished in Wimbledon White and Guardsman Blue with dual Blue stripes, it also features James Duff suspension, Dana 44 and Ford 9-inch axle hardware, Warn locking hubs, roadster-style doors, a family-style roll cage, and a long list of custom audio and trim upgrades. The result is a Bronco that retains its unmistakable early off-road character while incorporating the mechanical and aesthetic touches enthusiasts look for in a thoughtfully executed restomod.
The 2017 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake is what happens when one of America’s most familiar full-size pickups is handed over to Shelby and turned into something far more outrageous. Showing approximately 43,139 miles, this Oxford White SuperCrew pairs the comfort and practicality of a heavily optioned Lariat with a Shelby-engineered 750 HP supercharged 5.0L V8, making it a truck that can haul, cruise, and deliver genuine muscle-car levels of attitude. The transformation goes well beyond the engine, with 22-inch Shelby Retro chrome wheels, a lowered Shelby suspension, functional ram-air hood, full-body rally stripes, unique Shelby bodywork, and a tuned Borla exhaust all contributing to its unmistakable presence. Inside, Shelby registry details are joined by desirable factory equipment such as Equipment Group 502A, the Technology Package, adaptive cruise control, and a twin-panel moonroof. It is the kind of truck that combines everyday usability with the theater and exclusivity enthusiasts expect from the Shelby name.
The 2016 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is one of the cars that helped redefine what a modern American muscle car could be. Showing approximately 29,340 miles, this Pitch Black Clearcoat example pairs its unmistakable wide-shouldered Challenger styling with the centerpiece that made the Hellcat famous: a 6.2L supercharged V8 backed by an 8-speed HP90 automatic transmission. The Quick Order Package 26R SRT Hellcat, Laguna Performance Seats with SRT-embossed logos, and power sunroof add to the appeal, while the all-black color combination gives the car an especially sinister look. With rear-wheel drive, massive supercharged power, and the everyday usability of a full-size coupe, this Hellcat blends old-school muscle-car attitude with modern performance engineering in a way few cars can match.
The 2006 Ford Mustang GT Premium Convertible delivers the retro-inspired S197 Mustang experience with the added appeal of open-top V8 cruising. Showing approximately 31,805 miles, this example pairs Ford’s 4.6L naturally aspirated V8 with a 5-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. Finished in Torch Red with a black convertible soft top and a Dark Charcoal/Red leather interior, it already has the right classic Mustang color combination, while a K&N cold-air intake, JET Performance throttle body spacer, lowered suspension setup, and aftermarket shift kit add an enthusiast-focused edge to the package.
The Mach 1 name has always carried a little more edge than the average Mustang, and this 2022 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Premium Coupe delivers exactly that kind of enthusiast appeal. Showing approximately 25,094 miles, it pairs Ford’s 470-horsepower 5.0L V8 with a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission, then adds the desirable Mach 1 Handling Package, Equipment Group 700A, and Mach 1 Elite Package. Shadow Black paint, Recaro leather-trimmed sport seats, 305/30R19 front and 315/30R19 rear tires, MagneRide damping, a 3.73 Torsen rear axle, and active-valve exhaust make this a particularly well-optioned example built around driver involvement rather than simply straight-line pace.
