Shelby GT500 - more an avalanche

[LuS1fer]

While he may not have had much to do with the development, this is a pretty good 662hp swansong for the old b*gger:

0-60: 3.5
0-100: 7.7
1/4 mile: 11.6 at over 127mph

(Ball struck back to Chevy to uprate the ZL1 which took a yawn-inducing 3.8 to hit 60)

Yes, good old Dave and Nick ripping us off 10% import duty and 20% VAT and then fuel duty on top. Ford could at least help by fitting orange rear indicators, I've never understood their predilection with all red (Except they look better).While my supercharged Mustang can get over 30mpg, I can see this being measured in gallons per mile at full chat.
