This is one of the best, if not the best, Shelby GT500 reviews I've seen. The camera work and the organization of information / history is sublime. Thank you for your wonderfully produced content! I really hope to see more car reviews from this channel!
If you ever wonder why a car like the AMG's that once cost $100k+ new are now $30k after a few years, just look at how much repair costs are on them. As soon as they're out of warranty they go on the market for a fraction of what they cost new. Awesome vehicles, but ridiculously expensive parts.
The 67', like most big blocks of it's era, was so under rated. It actually made about 425 - 450hp. They also had 4 speed manuals quite often. Great video.
I drove my dads 2007 GT500, and I'm 100% sure no car will match the power and sound of it. It was always a blast to catapult that thing onto the onramp!
Faustino Films the terminator ended the war momentarily lol . This one did start it. There were no super charged production Camaro , charger or Challenger till after this. I think of the Terminator as a one sided knockout fight lol. Loved that car
The Corvette Z06 was released in 2006 with 505 HP, so not certain the Shelby can take full credit for starting said war. They were both combatants in the early stages of it for sure.
Honestly, my three dream cars is a 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302, 2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, and a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. I would take this over the 2012 though!
These cars are stupid fast. My old man bought an 06 Roush Stage 1 back in the day which I got to drive a couple times. I remember how fast I thought it was until I drove an 08 GT500. These things are ridiculously fast and take a lot of balls and talent to tame.
Absolutely! Although I enjoyed the 2008 Knight Rider, most of the series wasn't nearly as good as the original Knight Rider, but the car was awesome - definitely the best part of the show.
Awesome color grey with the black is awesome. I have a torch red white stripes GT500 and a 10 and 07 supersnake and 07. Shelby gt.Also I think the car's built when Carroll was alive will bring the money in the future especially my 07 427 Nascar edition supersnake very rare and my 10 grabber blue supersnake is sweet also.
Gears and Gasoline No problem. For the first two years of its life (53/54) you could only get a Corvette with an inline 6 and a 2 speed (yikes!) auto trans.
I think the 05-09 GT front aged much better than this car’s front. I remember loving this front back in the day but now I think that the GT front looks better. I think it’s the fog lights in the grill that make the GT look better making it retain its classic throwback look.
I always liked this era of mustang the most of the "modern" ones. It looks the most retro vs the newest generation that is out now with the round headlights etc. Should kept that styling a bit longer I think. This mustang looks like a mustang and personally I think the current mustang looks ugly.
I like the newest one, but not as much as I like the S197. The retro styling on the '05-'09 worked really well, and the current one is just too large overall.
I definitely like these models better than the new ones hands down and I will be honest I hated the new style for a while then they grew on me an now to me they are a very beautiful mustang model and soon I'm getting a 2017 gt but I still like the older ones more regardless.
You guys create amazing car videos! Keep up the great work! That was the best intro I’ve seen yet for a GT500.. if you’re ever in San Francisco and want to review a ‘14 GT500 Super Snake (what happened when Shelby American got done tinkering with the Ford factory produced GT500), feel free to ping me..
If you want to do a 2013 5.8 L GT500 review..most powerful mustang ever made and the last Shelby that CS had a hand in creating before passing away...I volunteer but I doubt you live close to me.
This the first stage of the GT500, the 2014 was the most notable HP and torque production car of its time. Adding bolt on mods can take the 2014 GT 500 to over 750 RWHP and 700 lbs-ft of torque.
I used to own a V6 automatic SN197, I hated it, hated the handling, the look, the power, I only liked the cargo space. I recently got an S2000 and I love it and everything it does. but seeing this makes me wonder how things wouldve turned out if what I had was a manual GT...🤔
Yea they're built they easily take 700-800+rwhp in stock form for a long time.... sometimes more so if that isnt built its "built"good enough for 99%of the people on this planet for a street car
I came over the sound of that supercharger whine
Hahaha that intro was priceless I'm dying at work laughing
As an S550 GT owner, I still think the 05-09 S197 is the best modern Mustang body style. A true classic. 10-14 are cool too.
This car takes crowds' breath away
Jonathan Ramirez *Esteban* figuratively or literally?
Yung Fury 夫:
Well done! That was elegant :)
Depends on the driver :)
That supercharger whine oh my!
the transition at 1:05 WAS AMAZING! you guys are awesome! the editing skills you have are a dream for most videomakers!
This is one of the best, if not the best, Shelby GT500 reviews I've seen. The camera work and the organization of information / history is sublime. Thank you for your wonderfully produced content! I really hope to see more car reviews from this channel!
Years later and this is still one of the best intros I’ve seen.
It’s good to see someone like the 07-09 !! Still got mine 1,000hp coming up
cheapest 500hp you can get your hands on.
2003-2006 Merc E55 AMG is quite a bit cheaper and has 520tq. Both great cars, would love to have a Shelby one day.
Edward Feenman *cheapest and most reliable

Yeah, they get pretty expensive. It's only really affordable if you do the maintenance yourself.

You can the 427 Side oiler if you know what i mean
I drove my dads 2007 GT500, and I'm 100% sure no car will match the power and sound of it. It was always a blast to catapult that thing onto the onramp!
amazing quality, as always guys. so happy to see your growth over the months, i'll still be here at a million.
Laugh all you want to, but this car was a game changer in 06-07 and started the horsepower wars we have now. It's also still INSANELY fucking fast.
Cody Clark if only it could drive at that 'fast' speed
Cody Clark 05 till 07
Faustino Films the terminator ended the war momentarily lol . This one did start it. There were no super charged production Camaro , charger or Challenger till after this. I think of the Terminator as a one sided knockout fight lol. Loved that car
Faustino Films I'm with you on that brother

Man how is it that every vidieo you guys make, makes me get goose bumps... I look forward to another video guys GOOD JOB
The crowd hunter
Big Mike the crowd eater
Kevin Moran crowd control 😎
I want that on my license plate now.
Just can't beat the supercharger whine
Very nice video. Great shots and editing.
I like the older GT. 500 style. I have a 2007 Red GT 500
Lucky👍
this is the best car cinematography on TH-cam.
That supercharger whine 😍
Best body style ever that's why I own 4 Shelbys 2 SS a gt500 and a Shelby gt god bless Shelby he made awesome cars period.
You guys do an amazing work! Stunning visuals, great production quality and extremely enjoyable video as a whole. Keep up the great work!
12 - 13mpg? that's what I get when I only do school runs in my slow, powerless 4Runner haha! Love the intro, another great video!
The sound of a supercharger whine has got to be the greatest ever.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE *gear change* WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
5:20
Yes please.
this is my dream car i hope to buy one one day
This vid reminds me of how great it is to be a car enthusiast at this time!
this is one of the most well put together videos I've watched on youtube
Noticed he drives with one hand on the wheel and the other on the shifter. Finally, someone who drives normal.
This Gen mustang is my favorite because of the retro look.
this channel needs more attention, the content they out out is like stuff you see on tv/ motor trend, but better
I love my 2007 gt500 I drive it on a daily basis! It's reliable and still looks appealing for being a 10year old car!
Honestly, my three dream cars is a 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302, 2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, and a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. I would take this over the 2012 though!
Peter Marino Dude the 2013 boss 302 is so fucking beautiful! Especially ones with the grabber blue and black stripes
You guys have the most motivating car videos I have ever watched and gave me the motivation to make my own
This is my next mustang because I love the s197 style
These cars are stupid fast. My old man bought an 06 Roush Stage 1 back in the day which I got to drive a couple times. I remember how fast I thought it was until I drove an 08 GT500. These things are ridiculously fast and take a lot of balls and talent to tame.
Unbelievable sounds coming from this thing. If horse power was a symphony, this would be the NY Philharmonic.
good to see the wheel chair is still around. Great job guys.
From 05-24 this body is the most retro one, I recently got a 07 gt500 it’s a great car fast and torqueee out of the box
Nice video .... have a 07 and take it to VMP Perf .... hope to be around 700ish rwhp
Would love to see a review of the 2013 GT500. It was the last Caroll Shelby creation:(
Anyone remembre KITT??
MrFaniaros I'm one of the few people that watched the show and actually enjoyed it. Love my gt500
MrFaniaros I actually thought about that too
Absolutely! Although I enjoyed the 2008 Knight Rider, most of the series wasn't nearly as good as the original Knight Rider, but the car was awesome - definitely the best part of the show.
Knight Industries Three Thousand. The show wasn't good, but the car was. Still a fan of the 1980 series though.
It's been awhile G&G, glad to see another new video!
What are the odds, we post mustang videos the same week. Great job as always 👍🏻
Awesome color grey with the black is awesome. I have a torch red white stripes GT500 and a 10 and 07 supersnake and 07. Shelby gt.Also I think the car's built when Carroll was alive will bring the money in the future especially my 07 427 Nascar edition supersnake very rare and my 10 grabber blue supersnake is sweet also.
That girl is a real crowd pleaser. uh.. you mean crowd killer? hahaha
Cool video guys. Very nicely put together.
Great awesomely shot video. I love cobras and shelbys,ive owned a cobra now someday ill own a shelby.
Thumbnail: "the crowd pleaser"
Me: more like crowd squeezer.
Nooooooo! C6 auto was a 3 speed lol...the only 4 speeds back then were manual transmissions.
You're so right. Error on my part. As a fan of modern cars, it's so hard for me to fathom transmissions with so few speeds.
Gears and Gasoline No problem. For the first two years of its life (53/54) you could only get a Corvette with an inline 6 and a 2 speed (yikes!) auto trans.
corvettels9 - The Powerglide is still one of the best drag racing transmissions ever built... even with only two forward gears.
Mister Deplorable but of course...if you gear a car right and it has enough torque, the less time you spend shifting the faster you're going to run.
fender I assure you not a word of this was ad libbed haha
Crowd pleaser or crowd killer?
The crowd killer I love it 👌
How original
that car is a real crowd pleaser
@3:12 C6 is a 3 speed auto. It's used in many platforms, but was very well suited to the FE engines.
PARA MI ES EL MUSTANG SHELBY MAS QUERIDOS QUE TODOS LOS QUE HAN SALIDO EN ESTA ACTUALIDAD, ES EL MAS QUERIDOS DE LOS COBRAS LA MEJOR LINEA RETRO.
I think the 05-09 GT front aged much better than this car’s front. I remember loving this front back in the day but now I think that the GT front looks better. I think it’s the fog lights in the grill that make the GT look better making it retain its classic throwback look.
GT front end with Shelby rear end = perfection
always been my favorite of the "new" mustangs
I love your work guys, keep it up!
*My inner Clarkson wants to shout POWERRRRRR'
Great video guys!
beautiful video, well edited 👍👍👍
Dammit I love Shelby’s.
How the f*** does this get a thumbs down........ Damn I really enjoyed this solid work👍

I'm right there with you man. To me, the new ones look like a Mustang f*cked a Fusion and that was the baby they produced.
Agree
Very nice! Almost as nice as my 08 Shelby GT500 convertible Triple black
FANTASTIC MUSTANG SHELBY
These guys make amazing vids
These other car channels need to get on your guys level of editing. So well done
great niw i wanna trade my Cadillac for this, badass car
Great video!
That Grunt Style T-Shirt 👊🏼🇺🇸
another grear video! loved the intro haha
Carol built the gt40 for Lemans not the mustang...
I'm pretty sure that a c6 was not a 4 speed. It's a 3 speed.
I even think as time goes on the 07 to 09 GT500s.Will become valuable.
Anthony Laudano i sure hope so. We have a 08 exactly like the one in this video, same color and all
@@jaclynmoylan1905My Shelbys My 10 supersnake is grabber blue and my 07 SS TORCH RED and my Shelby gt is white. I have 4 Shelbys I love them.
Anthony Laudano damn boy
You guys create amazing car videos! Keep up the great work! That was the best intro I’ve seen yet for a GT500.. if you’re ever in San Francisco and want to review a ‘14 GT500 Super Snake (what happened when Shelby American got done tinkering with the Ford factory produced GT500), feel free to ping me..
I like it how people say " omg it only gets 13 mpg" my truck gets that, quit complaining
Would love to see a remake with a higher FPS rate 😉 love it!
great video 👌
“It’s not just any Mustang, it’s a....... crowd killer”
Of course kingpin would love the killer mustang.
love the svt wheels
Best looking mustang imo
If you want to do a 2013 5.8 L GT500 review..most powerful mustang ever made and the last Shelby that CS had a hand in creating before passing away...I volunteer but I doubt you live close to me.
This the first stage of the GT500, the 2014 was the most notable HP and torque production car of its time. Adding bolt on mods can take the 2014 GT 500 to over 750 RWHP and 700 lbs-ft of torque.
Where was this filmed?
Nice car ! Mine is triple black convert same yr.
I used to own a V6 automatic SN197, I hated it, hated the handling, the look, the power, I only liked the cargo space.
I recently got an S2000 and I love it and everything it does.
but seeing this makes me wonder how things wouldve turned out if what I had was a manual GT...🤔
+Gears and Gasonline This looks like it was shot on the Blue Ridge Parkway, was it?
When I first see the gear spinning I think the video is loading like a video game
My favorite Shelby.
My dream car since I was 11 years old... One day.
Halogen headlights and leaf spring/wagon wheel rear suspension. Definitely a ford.
B_M_F_710 those aren't halogen headlights
Factory HIDs bub
“The crowd destroyer”
I don't think those motors were "built". Only the '03 Cobra had the Forged Manley crank, H-beam rods, and forged pistons.
Yea they're built they easily take 700-800+rwhp in stock form for a long time.... sometimes more so if that isnt built its "built"good enough for 99%of the people on this planet for a street car
I have one. Love it.
very nice your car🚗👍
Never heard a Ford modular motor described as “compact.” 😂
National geographic 2017
Yes its a dream, to have one... Mine...
