This custom Mustang weighs 825 horsepower.
Shelby
On Saturday, high-performance carmaker Shelby American announced a series of new super-speeds Ford including the 2021 Speedster edition Super Snake. This two-seater car offers extra style and a lot of performance.
The new Speedster is based on the Super Snake coupe (which in turn is based on the Mustang GT), a car inspired by an experimental vehicle built in 1967. Obviously, these two Mustangs have the same basic hardware, which means the Speedster has a 5.0-liter Coyote V8 engine crowned by a polished Whipple charger, a combination that delivers 825 horsepower when it gets 93-octane fuel. It’s a little more than even the 760 ponies of the Shelby GT500, and it’s enough to get this car up to 60 km / h in 3.5 seconds.
If he helps the engine breathe and adds a bit of playfulness, it blows it out through a Borla exhaust system. A manual or automatic transmission is offered, but if the car insurance can deliver as much power on the pavement, the strong axle-axle should not be tied in knots when you plug the accelerator. 20-inch forged aluminum wheels, Shelby spec tires and Brembo brakes make up the Speedster’s most important hardware.
Each Super Snake model has painted race stripes (a fetch add-on), a special broad package, a Penske suspension system and a rear seat with a harness bar. These treats cost $ 4,995 extra on the already amazing price.
This car’s wide body has a lot of presence.
Shelby
Inside, the Super Snake Speedster features Shelby-specific upgrades such as new floor mats and window sill decoration, a unique gauge and a special convertible light bar. Only 98 Super Snake coupes will be built in 2021 to commemorate what the company’s founder Carroll Shelby’s 98th birthday would have been (a strange milestone to celebrate, but whatever), but the Speedster model is even rarer. Only 25 of these open-air Mustangs are offered in the US. Of course, each will be listed in the official Shelby Register.
In terms of pricing, the Super Snake package costs $ 79,995 if you want to set up the donor car yourself. The overall price when Shelby buys you a new Mustang GT is $ 133,785. For added convenience, each of these Shelbys is backed by Ford’s standard three-year / 36,000-mile power source warranty, so you do not have to worry too much be about the engine or transmission that “Bang!” Do not go. during drag races or participating in an open track day. But even if something fails, it should be replaced under warranty.
