2014 Ford Mustang GT500 Review

    The Mustang is one of the most popular muscle cars of all time, and it has been around since the 60's. But a man named Caroll Shelby had the idea to put a Ford 5.0 liter into a AC Ace sports car, which badly needed a new engine. So that led to the birth of the Shelby Cobra, one of the best cars of all time. But shortly after that, Caroll decided to create an engine for the Ford Mustang. Over the years, the Shelby-brand Mustang has evolved so much, and this year, it is amazing. The engine is a supercharged 5.8 liter V8 that produces an astounding 662 hp and 631 pound-feet of torque, which is almost as much as a Lamborghini Aventador. 0-60 takes 3.5 seconds, which is faster than a Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S. Sadly, Caroll Shelby died on May 10th, 2012 , at the age of 83. But his great acts of engineering will never be forgotten.
