Default 800 hp Mustang

Bet it will weigh 3 tons and be slower than a ZR1

The previous GT500 Super Snake had 725hp with no warranty for close to 80k+? Not sure on price. Those cars are sleds!

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

I don't know much about Ford (other than the F350 at work is a piece of junk) but Shelby American Inc is not part of Ford and they just work with Ford, correct?

Maybe this is similar to Lingenfelter working with Chevrolet?

My favorite part Shelby provides no warranty on the engine and transmission, in either case. Lol

Yeah the no warranty thing is a joke. Pretty sure the ZR1 has a warrranty.

In a straight line with slicks sure, but put some squiggles in between...500lbs is a lot, and i bet the zr1 handles way better. If offered to drive both Id take the zr1 keys every time.
