If you're a driving enthusiast, you owe a huge debt of gratitude to the Ford Mustang. Once that pony car hit the
market in 1964, affordable and stylish performance was finally in reach for the average American. Even though early
versions weren't exceptionally fast, it didn't take long for Ford to pump the car up with some real muscle. Shortly
after the first 'Stang hit the streets,
Only a few thousand of the original Ford Shelby GT500s were built from 1967-'70, and they've remained very popular
with Mustang enthusiasts and collectors. As expected, the modern version is obviously a much better car in terms of
comfort and overall performance. However, potential buyers of the modern-era GT500 should know that the first few
years of the car were let down by disappointing handling capabilities. Newer GT500s are much more appealing by
virtue of revised suspension tuning and massively more powerful engines.
Current Ford Shelby GT500
The Ford Shelby GT500 is the ultimate performance version of the Mustang and is available in both coupe and
convertible body styles. As the top horse in the stable, it boasts a number of significant upgrades. Chief among
them is an all-aluminum, supercharged 5.8-liter V8 that cranks out 662 horsepower and gives the coupe a top speed
of more than 200 mph (the convertible is electronically limited to 155 mph). That powerhouse is hooked up to a
six-speed manual gearbox and spins the rear tires through a limited-slip solid rear axle. There is also an
adjustable launch control system (allows the driver to select preferred launch rpm) as well as adjustable steering
assist.
Standard feature highlights for the GT500 include 19-inch alloy wheels, Brembo brakes, xenon headlights, leather
sport bucket seats, the Sync multimedia voice-control system and an audio system with a CD player, auxiliary/USB
audio jacks and satellite radio.
Option highlights include a glass roof for the coupe, a navigation system (with HD radio and dual-zone climate
control), an upgraded sound system and a handful of performance packages (should a standard GT500 somehow be
lacking). The latter include such ultra-performance hardware as adjustable Bilstein dampers, even larger Brembo
brakes and separate engine oil, rear differential and transmission cooling systems.
In reviews we've been impressed by this Shelby GT500's incredible performance potential, precise gearbox, crisp
steering response, agile handling, fairly comfortable ride and solid cabin quality. Also making this supercar an
agreeable daily driver are its supportive seats and thoughtful features such as the Sync system and
hard-drive-based navigation system.
Used Ford Shelby GT500 Models
The reincarnated Shelby GT500 debuted for 2007. At the time, its supercharged 5.4-liter V8 had an iron block and
produced 500 hp. Standard front-seat side airbags and optional xenon headlights arrived the following year.

Ford EcoBoost smashes records at Daytona

Thu, 10 Oct 2013

Some mighty machines have lapped the banks of the Daytona International Speedway over the years: thunderous V8-powered stock cars, Le Mans-conquering Group C prototypes, open-wheel Champ Cars, knee-dragging superbikes... heck, the infield lake has even hosted powerboat racing. But this - this is the fastest car ever to lap the legendary raceway.
What you're looking at is the new Daytona Prototype being prepared by Riley Technologies for the new United SportsCar Championship. The car, released just last week, is powered by a new 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 from Ford's EcoBoost family, and just obliterated the top speed at the track with a blistering 222.971 miles per hour through the traps.
That's enough to annihilate the previous record that was set, also under Ford power, by Bill Elliott while placing his Thunderbird on pole for the 1987 Daytona 500 that he would go on to win. His 210.364 mph record had stood for 26 years until now.

Ford issues recalls for Fiesta, Fusion, E-Series, and Lincoln MKZ

Wed, Mar 25 2020

Ford has issued two new safety recalls for North America. The first covers certain 2014-15 Ford Fiestas, 2014-16 Ford Fusions, and 2014-16 Lincoln MKZs with doors that might not close properly. The second pertains to 2021 Ford E-Series stripped chassis and cutaway vehicles with a wiring harness that might chaffe and expose important wiring. Ford is recalling 268,343 Fiesta hatchbacks, Fusion sedans, and MKZ sedans across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with 248,912 of the affected vehicles located in the U.S. The recall says the "latch pawl spring-tab design" could crack in locations where the temperature gets too hot. If the tab breaks, the door might not shut. Or, worse, the door will shut temporarily and reopen once the vehicle is in motion. As a fix, Ford dealers will remove and replace the side door latches. In a separate recall, Ford is targeting 3,631 2021 E-Series stripped chassis and cutaway vehicles. These vehicles could have frame-mounted wiring harnesses that could deteriorate and break due to rubbing on the frame. If the chaffing wears down the harness, wiring for the fuel, trailer tow, and antilock braking systems could be exposed and damaged. In the worst-case scenario, the damage to the fuel pump wiring could cause the pump to stop working, which could stall the vehicle. Those with affected E-Series vehicles should bring them in to dealerships for inspection. If there is no damage, technicians will add anti-abrasion tape over the area and "ensure clearance to surrounding components." If the harness is damaged, the wiring will be spliced and fixed, then anti-abrasion tape will be added. Ford also issued a third recall, but it is specifically for the Canadian market. On 54,292 examples of 2006-10 Ford Fusions, 2006-10 Mercury Milans, and 2006-10 Lincoln MKZs, a valve inside the hydraulic control unit might stick open. According to Ford, this could result in a longer brake pedal travel, which could possibly create dangerous situations if the driver is unaware. Dealerships will inspect the control units and replace those that are defective. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
