The Beast Is Here<\/h2>\n

Ford revealed its Mustang Shelby GT500<\/a> at the North American International Auto Show. When it did so, the company left out the power numbers for the car, leaving everyone to speculate as to how much the supercharged 5.2-liter V-8 would actually produce. Now the company has let those numbers and some other stats out. <\/p>\n

The GT500 will make 760 hp and 625 lb-ft of torque.<\/strong> That’s more horsepower than the Chevy Corvette ZR1, which is regarded as a crazy-powerful machine and has won many awards for being just that. While Dodge’s Demon still has more horsepower, the GT500 is a bit of a different animal and will be a track monster as well as a true staight-line speed machine.<\/p>\n

Official performance times have not yet been released, but Ford promises 0-60 time of mid-three seconds and a sub-11-second quarter mile time,<\/strong> according to Road and Track<\/a>. The car will also be a track monster due to aerodynamic developments and various technologies. How good the car is will be determined at a later date, but it’s safe to say this is the most extreme Mustang yet. <\/p>\n

As The Drive<\/a> points out, this will be the first time since the 1960s that Ford has sold the Mustang GT350 and the GT 500 at the same time.<\/strong> For those who thought the 1960s were the peak of muscle car performance, you were wrong. Here’s the perfect example. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
