About Shelby GT500 Eleanor

The Shelby Mustang is a high-performance variant of the Ford Mustang, which Shelby American built from 1965 to 1967, and from 1968 to 1970 by Ford. Following the fifth generation Ford Mustang introduction in 2005, the Shelby nameplate was revived as a new high-performance model, this time designed and built by Ford.

The 4.6 liters, 281-cubic-inch, 319 hp (238 kW) Ford Shelby GT is slotted between the 300 hp (220 kW) Mustang GT and the Ford Shelby GT500. It is essentially a retail sale version of the Hertz rental-only Ford Shelby GT-H, except a manual transmission is available. The Shelby GT was a unique model. Like the Shelby Mustangs of the 60s, the Shelby GT's manufacturing was completed at Shelby Automobiles Inc. in Las Vegas, Nevada, after being shipped directly thereby Ford Motor Company.

Shelby and Ford returned for the 2007 model year with the Shelby GT500. Introduced at the 2005 New York International Auto Show, the GT500 uses a supercharged and intercooler Modular 5.4 L; 330.0 cu in (5,408 cc) V8 engine rated at 500 hp (507 PS; 373 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 480 lb⋅ft (651 N⋅m) at 4,500 rpm of torque.

Deliveries of the Shelby GT500 began in May 2006. A collaboration of Ford's SVT and Carroll Shelby, the GT500 was produced in limited quantity for three years (approximately 10,000 units per year) on the line at Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan (AutoAlliance) assembly facility. The Ford Shelby GT500KR, revealed at the 2007 New York International Auto Show, was released in the spring of 2008.

Starting in 2008, previous 2007 Shelby GT500 Mustangs could be sent to Carroll Shelby's Special Performance Plant in Las Vegas to be rebuilt into a Super Snake for an additional cost of $27,995. The Prudhomme Edition Super Snake is a limited (100 units) drag racing package for the 2007–2010 Ford Shelby GT500 cars, named after Don Prudhomme.

Since 2011, Shelby 1000 became a package for 2010-14's Ford Shelby GT500, due to the popularity of the package, Shelby American also received 2013–14 Ford Shelby GT500s to be converted into Shelby 1000s from customers.

The 2020 Shelby GT500 was unveiled at the January 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. It is powered by a hand-built 5.2-liter "Predator" aluminum-alloy V8 engine with a 2.65-liter roots-type supercharger. The Shelby GT500 produces 760 hp (567 kW; 771 PS) and 625 lb⋅ft (847 N⋅m) of torque. However, it will not arrive to the European market due to the V8 5.2 liter motor not being able to comply with European road regulations, therefore it will only focus on North America and Middle Eastern countries.
