Ford joined with Shelby to bring out a muscle car to ensure a prominent space in the car market. It was the first joint venture by both the companies since 1967 when they created the first Ford Shelby Cobra GT500 edition Mustang.

The Ford Shelby Cobra GT500 was built with a big block V8, 7 liter engine that had the capacity to produce 360 horsepower. It was just few years back that it was replaced by the GT-500 King of the Road in 1969. But that hasn’t stopped this muscle car from becoming one of the most valuable cars on the market.

The 2007 Ford Shelby Cobra was created and made the North American Car of the Year and the Canadian Car of the Year - the 2005 GT-500. It is one of the fastest models Mustang ever came out.

Underneath the hood of this model from Ford is a V8, 5.4 liter engine that could push out 500 horsepower and 480 pound-ft of torque at 4,500 RPM. This engine is mated to a six speed manual transmission. Together they allow the Mustang to rev from 0 to 60 in 4.91 seconds.

This model car comes out in two trims, ie, the coupe and the powered soft top convertible. Each model has leather seats, 500 watt sound system, and an in dash CD changer. It also has 18″ machined aluminium wheels that have Goodyear F1 tires. Racing stripes run down the side of both models though customers have the option of removing these.

We look in every car for power, handling, and of course safety. It is of no doubt that this car is also excellent with that features. The 2007 Ford Shelby Mustang Cobra got a five star rating for frontal crash test as well as a four star rating for side impact. This is a proof for its excellent capability to rule on the US roads.
