The Best Mustang Ever
Shelby GT500KR
Carroll Shelby’s name is synonymous with performance, and it’s no big surprise that the special-edition car from Shelby is a Mustang. Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the 1968 Shelby Cobra GT500KR (King of the Road), this 2008 Shelby GT500KR is the most powerful production Mustang to date. Under that carbon-composite hood lurks a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 pumping out 540 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque.
Each GT500KR is identified by special 40th Anniversary KR badges on the fenders and grille and Shelby lettering stretching across the front of the hood and along the rear portion of the deck lid. A special Shelby VIN tag is affixed to each vehicle, mounted in the engine compartment.
“I’m proud to once again be a part of an historical moment, bringing back the ‘King of the Road’ Mustang, and collaborating with Ford SVT and Ford Racing,” said Carroll Shelby. “I’m committed to continuously upping the ante when it comes to performance, and it’s great to be doing it with Ford.”
Only 1,000 GT500KRs will be sold.
