A pickup carrying a pair of GT500s crashed this morning on the I-75 just north of downtown Detroit. Details on the crash remain unfortunately scant, but WDIV Detroit reports that the lanes blocked by the truck and trailer have at least been reopened. Although it is not known if anyone suffered...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbm6Aj6izmw It's been a year since Ford revealed the new Mustang Shelby GT500, and so we know how much power it makes, how quickly it accelerates, and we've even driven it. Heck, they're even on sale to the public. But Ford's been keeping one of the most...

To those of us who grew up watching car shows on Saturday morning instead of cartoons, Dennis Gage’s glorious moustache is a promise of insight and historical excellence. It’s hardly surprising then that this nearly 100 minute, unedited interview with Carroll Shelby should come from his show, My...

Cinched into a five-point racing harness, with a head-and-neck support device attached to my helmet, I felt a bit of nerves as I awaited my turn to pilot the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 at full-tilt-boogie around a road course at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Without the benefit (or restriction...

The reviews of Ford’s most powerful Mustang ever are finally coming out and that means we’re finally getting some instrumented test results. Namely 0-60 times and quarter-mile times. On the sticky prepared surface of a drag strip, the GT500 hits 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and will run the...

Australians were likely dismayed to hear that Ford had no plans of importing the GT500 to the market, but just because Ford won’t doesn’t mean no one will. Mustang Motorsport, a mod-shop from Victoria says it will import the GT500 and convert it to right-hand-drive if new legislation allowing...

Oh to be an Australian. Attracted by history and by nature to the muscle of American cars, but denied by distance their presence. Aussies aren’t about to take it lying down, though. Thanks to a lack of right-hand-drive examples, Ford has made it clear that the GT500 will not be exported to the...

Noted builder of absurdly high-powered cars Hennessey Performance has already announced three packages for the 2020 Shelby Mustang GT500. You know, the one you can't even buy yet. Want up to 1,200 hp? No problem. Want a bit less, they can do that too. The GT500 packages start with the Venom...

Ford will introduce a handful of modest updates for the 2020 model year of the GT350. These will, according to Ford, improve steering feel and help with driver confidence. That’s because the biggest change comes to the GT350’s steering system. The Mustang now borrows the high-trail steering...

The Shelby GT 500 will get you from 0 to 100 mph and then back down to 0 again in just 10.6 seconds, according to Ford. Naturally, you’d expect a modern car that makes 760 hp, has a 7-speed dual-clutch, and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires to be ludicrously fast. But, according to these...

Some people are just luckier than you and me. Professional drivers and fun-havers, Ken Block and Vaughn Gittin Jr are among them. Even they, though, weren't allowed to get near the GT500 until the Goodwood Festival of Speed last week. And the car doesn't disappoint. With a clear track, a fresh...

Along with being the most powerful (street legal) Mustang to ever leave the factory, the Shelby GT500 will also by the most expensive. Topping out at more than $90,000 with a few optional extras, Mustang buyers will have to outspend their pony car competitors.  That price includes the fancy...

Australian buyers shouldn’t expect to see a GT500 in their nearest dealer anytime soon, Ford Australia spokesperson, Damion Smy told Cars Guide recently . There are “no plans to bring the Mustang GT500 to Australia as it is strictly left-hand drive only,” Smy told the Aussie publication...

Finally. Ford has just given us the horsepower figures for the 2020 Mustang Shelby GT500. More than a year after the car was first announced. And when they said before that it would be more than 700, they weren't kidding. It absolutely smashes that figure. Along with just about everybody else...

I'm a mustang girl! Have been since I was a teenager. I think life is way too short to drive boring cars and nothing makes me happier than a Mustang. But don't give me a tiny motor, I want a big one. No hate on the small motors at all, I know they can hold their own, they're just not for me...

A test sheet bearing impressive performance numbers for the GT500 that was allegedly filled out for Road & Track recently surfaced on the internet. There's just one problem: Road & Track hasn’t driven the GT500. The publication was the first to publish about the fraudulent information...

Does anyone know if Ford Performance discontinued their rim M-1007-SA199? It's the ~2011-2012 GT500 wheel in gun metal. I only see black on their site, which is a slightly different #. I've looked on several other site (LMR, CJs, AM, Summit, etc) and no one seems to have them any more.

Ford just unveiled its all-new 2020 Shelby GT500, a modern-day muscle car that’s all about superlatives. With more than 700 horses on tap, this beast will be the fastest, most powerful, best-handling and quickest-shifting street-going Mustang  ever built. It’s even got the largest front brakes...

The one and only 1967 Shelby GT500 is up for auction. It was built to show off a new set of tires, and it sports a GT40 427 V8. And it's going to go for a whole lot of cash. Carroll Shelby was more than just the guy who built fast Mustangs in 1967. He also had the west coast distributorship for...
