Shelby Mustang fans had to wait a long time for the GT500 to return in 2007, but the all-new model was worth the wait. Developed by Carroll Shelby and SVT, Ford’s Special Vehicle Team, the S197 GT500 had a 500-horsepower supercharged 5.4-liter V8 under its hood and a TREMEC six-speed manual to turn all that fury into forward motion. Of course, the GT500 also had upgraded brakes and suspension hardware to keep all four 18-inch machined aluminum wheels on the road.
Someone had the willpower to resist driving this particular Shelby GT500, which was sold at the Barrett-Jackson 2025 Palm Beach Auction, into a road warrior, and put fewer than 1,000 miles on it. We here at ClassicCars TV would enjoy the supercharged power too much and rack up big numbers on the odometer. Would you drive this 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 sparingly or take it everywhere and show it off? Let us know in the comments below.
