Profile: 2008 Shelby GT Mustang
Thursday February 14, 2008
I don't know about you, but when I'm on the road I always find myself scoping out the Mustangs I see. The other day I came across a 2008 Shelby GT while stopped at a red light. I hadn't seen any '08s on the road, and with limited production numbers, its easy to see why. On the exterior, the Shelby GT is a sharp looking ride. Under the hood it boasts a 4.6L V8 engine capable of cranking out 319 hp and 330 lb.-ft. of torque. The 2008 Shelby features a new signature Vista Blue exterior with Shelby GT Silver stripes. The Mustang is also available as a convertible, although the one I spotted was a coupe. Do any of you own a 2008 Shelby GT? What's your take on the ride?
