The
2007 Ford Shelby GT500 was introduced at the 2003 New York International
Auto Show. The Shelby GT500 is powered by a 5.4L Modular 500HP
supercharged V8. Performance features include the Tremec TR-6060
6-speed manual transmission, sports suspension, aggressive body
kit, and 18 inch wheels.
The Ford Shelby GT500's engine is force-fed through a "Roots-type"
supercharger. Performance elements borrows from the Ford GT
include aluminum, four-valve cylinder heads, piston rings and
bearings, adding a high level of performance durability to the
drivetrain. "Powered by SVT" camshaft covers add the
finishing touch to the engine.
The Ford Shelby GT500 was the product of a collaboration between
Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT) and Carroll Shelby. The first
2007 Shelby GT500 was auctioned off at the Barrett-Jackson Collector
Car Auction on 21 January 2006 in Scottsdale, Arizona for $648,000.
