It’s a good time since Shelby’s Super Snake last roamed the streets. But now, six years after the renewal of Ford’s Mustang, the Super Snake is back in business, in a fast and convertible form. This time, however, there is something different. The Super Snake convertible is now a strict Speedster version and possibly the most beautiful S550 sold today.
The Super Snake Speedster is thus replaced by the rear seats for a tonneau cover and an optional harness bar, which achieves the look of European exotic products in the form of an American pony car. Style is also not all that robs it of supercars; it also claims their performance with a 5-liter Coyote V8, powered by Whipple, that cries to the space debris that blocks the moon through a Borla exhaust. In addition to extra heat, which is shed by improved cooling and an air canopy, it generates 825 horsepower that moves to the rear axle through a manual gearbox or an automatic gearbox, moving this coiled hose from zero to 60 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds let jump. .
By stepping on its Brembo brakes, the weight will move forward on the Ford Performance track suspension or an optional, adjustable Penske setup, both of which keep its Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber on the tarmac. The 20-inch forged aluminum alloys that surround them are encased in an optional aluminum wide-body, which, along with functional aero adjustments – splitter, fuselage, diffuser, spoiler – distinguish Super Snakes from lesser Mustang.
Extensive Shelby badges and optional stripes adorn the exterior, while the interior is covered with Shelby motifs on the floor mats, door sills and meters. Like every other Shelby, the stripe is crowned in a commemorative plaque that will definitely impress with exactly zero dates.
