2k-Mile 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Coupe

OVERVIEW

This 2,382-mile 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 coupe was made in cooperation with Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT). It receives power from a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 mated to a TREMEC six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes fog lamps, a power dome hood, 18-inch wheels, Brembo front brakes, and an SVT-tuned suspension. Finished in Torch Red with Oxford White stripes over a Dark Charcoal leather interior, this S197 Mustang is now offered with documentation, a clean CARFAX report, and a clear title.

EXTERIOR – FEATURES

The Torch Red exterior is accented with Oxford White stripes and GT500 rocker decals. Features include a chin spoiler, fog lamps, a power dome hood with heat extractors, a spoiler, and dual exhaust outlets connected to a tuned stainless steel X-pipe exhaust system.

EXTERIOR – WHEELS AND TIRES

The 18" x 9.5" machined aluminum wheels with SVT center caps are wrapped in the car’s original 255/45 front and 285/40 rear Goodyear Eagle F1 tires.

INTERIOR – FEATURES

The cockpit is optioned with Dark Charcoal leather power-adjustable bucket seats up front, two-passenger seating in the rear, and matching trim for the door panels, center console, dash, and carpeting. Features include aluminum door sill plates, embossed Shelby Cobra logos, power windows, power door locks, power steering, cruise control, a leather-trimmed steering wheel, air conditioning, a Shaker audio system with navigation, multi-color ambient lighting, and aluminum pedals. A dash-mounted placard contains the Shelby logo along with Carroll Shelby’s signature.

INTERIOR – GAUGES

The SVT-branded instrumentation includes a 160-mph speedometer, a 7,000-rpm tachometer, and gauges for the coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and boost pressure. The digital odometer reads 2,382 miles, which lines up with the most recent mileage figure of 2,000 miles recorded on the CARFAX report in 2018.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION

The supercharged and intercooled 5.4-liter V8 was rated at 500 horsepower and 480 lb-ft of torque when new. It features a forged steel crankshaft, forged steel I-beam connecting rods, and a dual-bore 60mm electronic throttle body. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a console-shifted TREMEC six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential.

UNDERCARRIAGE

The four-wheel disc braking system has Brembo 14-inch vented rotors with four-piston calipers up front and 11.8-inch vented rotors with two-piston calipers at the rear. Handling is assisted by an SVT-tuned suspension and traction control.

The CARFAX report begins in 2007 and shows accident-free ownership in Tennessee and Illinois. The seller has provided videos showing an exterior walk-around, the engine compartment, an interior tour, and a cold engine start. The car will come with documentation dating back to the original owner.
