The fifth-generation Mustang was widely hailed as a return to form. It sported retro-modern styling, plenty of power, and the hallowed Shelby variants to thrill performance seekers. Among the many special editions produced during the fifth generation's lifetime was the Shelby GT500KR. This particular special edition debuted for the 2008 model year in homage to the King of the Road tag seen on the 1968 Mustang. We've got one of those Kings up for sale in the shape of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR. We're told that it's CSM 08KR0815 and comes with CSM numbered badges, GT500KR fender and grille emblems, and special Shelby GT500KR carbon fiber components. But what'll really blow your mind away is the mileage; this car has traveled a scant 1,500 miles since it left the factory.
Exterior and Interior
The sinister black paintwork of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR acts as a perfect backdrop to showcase every special feature of this special Mustang. Let's start with the Ford Racing front brake duct cooling kit and move on to the 18-inch forged aluminum Shelby GT500KR alloy wheels, which wear Goodyear performance tires. Then, it's time to check out the authentic SHELBY hood and trunk lettering kit, as well as the satin chrome finished hood pins courtesy of Shelby Performance Parts. Popping the hood reveals that the engine's fluid caps are also branded with the GT500KR insignia. The cabin of this 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR retains its four-seat leather-trimmed interior, replete with Carroll Shelby signature headrests and floor mat badging. You'll find the expected creature comforts as well, including air conditioning, a touchscreen infotainment system, power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, cruise control, and a multifunction steering wheel. The trunk remains the same as on a standard fifth-generation Mustang coupe, allowing you to carry a surprisingly decent amount of luggage despite the car's sporty looks.
Engine
This 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR features a 5.4L supercharged V8 that would develop a mind-boggling 540hp and 510lb-ft from the factory. However, this car doubtless produces more, thanks to the Ford Racing Power Upgrade Kit. The six-speed manual transmission is a delight to operate, thanks to a Ford Racing short throw shifter and shifter ball. As you push this Mustang into its natural comfort zone, you'll appreciate the SVT-tuned suspension that makes it a true handling treat for the committed driver.
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.
This 1967 Ford Mustang GTA Restomod takes the classic first-generation Mustang formula and adds a serious catalog of modern performance and comfort upgrades. Showing approximately 301 miles, this example has received an extensive refresh centered around a 347ci Blueprint Engines stroker V8 rated at 440 horsepower, an AOD heavy-duty performance automatic, and a 3.55 Posi-Traction rear differential. Its mechanical upgrades are matched by a thoroughly updated cabin with Procar reclining seats, Dakota Digital instrumentation, Vintage Air, power windows, and a modernized audio system, making this a far more capable and usable take on the original GTA recipe.
This 1968 Ford Mustang Hardtop takes the familiar first-generation Mustang formula and adds a useful mix of performance and drivability upgrades. Finished in Gulfstream Aqua over a reupholstered Aqua vinyl interior, this example is powered by a 302ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor and a C4 3-speed automatic transmission. Front and rear disc brakes, air conditioning, an aftermarket power steering pump, upgraded shocks, and an aftermarket exhaust make it more approachable for regular cruising, while the aftermarket GT-style steering wheel and tachometer add a sportier feel from behind the wheel. Showing approximately 43,718 miles, this Mustang offers classic coupe styling with a number of well-chosen updates aimed at making it more enjoyable on the road.
This 1930 Ford Model A Phaeton Hot Rod takes the simplicity of early Ford design and turns it into a traditional open-wheel hot rod with a strong period-inspired attitude. Finished in red over a tan interior, it is powered by a 350ci V8 topped with triple 2-barrel carburetors and paired with an automatic transmission. The chopped top has been removed, leaving a more open profile beneath the tan convertible soft top, while the exposed engine, staggered aftermarket wheels, dropped front axle, and side-exit exhaust give the car the unmistakable stance and mechanical presence enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod build.
