2008 Shelby GT-500 with only 5,000 miles on it.

5.4L supercharged, 500hp/480tq



I've got 6 months left in korea so it sucks i'll have to leave it behind for a while, but i've already got a few parts on the way, (pipes, tuner, etc) and upon my return full on Kenny Bell or Whipple.









Update:

Added a few mods and got tuned, results:

Big_Bird Apr 21, 2010 07:01 PM

Nice pick up!

Sad to see you failed spelling, :P

You're just trying to make your neighbor jealous. Always gotta be better than the Jones's.... lolz nice car bro.

Prototype_xB Apr 22, 2010 02:20 AM

just got the pipes in. Holy crap it's loud and obnoxious. I love it. Also going to the drag strip tomorrow night, and the wifey's bringing the 1080p video cam, should have some nice footage. If can do a 12.9 i'll be more than happy.

Gonna be leaving it with my wife's parents. Her dad's a freakin mustang fanatic, so it'll be in good hands. It's gonna be kept under the garage, under a car cover, and taken out once in a while too. Sucks, but it should be fine.

Iceman04503 Apr 22, 2010 06:13 AM

Very nice. I wasn't expecting that until I scrolled down. I rented a regular 06 from Hertz once and I gotta say that I liked it alot. Can't say too much about the 2010 redesigned one.

rangerryda Apr 22, 2010 06:24 AM

Long story short... pure sexxxx

They were asking $37,998 for it. Kelly value is $44,000!! Only had 5,000 miles, 100% stock, clean carfax and not a single thing wrong with it mechanically or body wise. These things are very hard to find, and even when you do the price's are jacked up so high because the dealers know they're rare. Not in this case. I just got extremely lucky. Gave me 10K on my truck (more than Kelly trade value), put 10K cash down, and financed the rest ($320/m for 60m, $80/m for car insurance), plus for peeps that watched my sig, this leaves me $13+k for toys.........hehehe:

Which xB? My black/yellow RS2 or the 08 xB2? Well, the RS2 was traded many years ago for the tC, but the 08 xB2 is my wife's which she still has.

RusWolf Apr 23, 2010 06:41 AM

Evolution performance that is PA right ?
when i used to sell car one of our customer bought 2 stang from my dealership and shipped them there then came back to us to pick up shelby wheels, well his automatic stangs were putting down like 460whp...sounded sick !

On that as we speak, haha

Awesome car! The only con I can think of is the handling, but that can easily be fixed with aftermarket parts.

Kenne bell upgrade in the future? :lalala:
