For Sale: 2007 Shelby GT500 in Ft Worth, Texas

Vehicle Description

Car guys love to run numbers, and this 2007 Shelby GT500 has perhaps the most important number of all: order number 0001. Yes, you're reading that correctly, this is the very first Shelby GT500 that was ordered, and with just over 6000 original miles, it's a truly collectable late-model that will always be prized for its place in history.

Now the GT500 really needs no introductions, although it seems interesting that the very first GT500 would be Nightshade Blue instead of red or white. However, now that you've seen it, you're probably in love just as we were when it first rolled into our showroom. It's got all the Shelby design cues, from the custom hood and spoiler to the stripe package to the special deck lid spoiler, making it stand out among lesser ponies. This one has been special from the very start, so that means no commuting, no track days, not even any rain in its history and the finish is pretty much as new in every possible way. Finish quality on the Shelby Mustangs is every bit as good as their price tags would suggest, and the deep blue paint is smooth, glossy, and deep. We've seen a few of these cars without the stripes (they were actually optional) and have to admit that it just doesn't work without the bright white call-outs on the rockers. This is a special car, why not advertise a bit? The only modification on the entire car are the slats on the rear quarter windows, which have been painted to match the bodywork and blend in perfectly.

The black leather interior has been beautifully preserved as well, and as the top-of-the-line Mustang, it's got just about every feature and option you can imagine. The embroidered buckets are just the start, because it also offers power windows, locks, and mirrors, powerful A/C, cruise control, a tilt steering column, and a comprehensive array of old-school gauges that look an awful lot like the ones in a certain Highland Green '67. Shelby logos are discreetly placed, which is somewhat unlike Shelby, and there's a powerful AM/FM/CD stereo system with speakers throughout the interior and a subwoofer in the trunk, all of which was factory equipment. And speaking of the trunk, it's completely unused with correct mats and a spare tire that's never been down.

The GT500's 5.4 liter DOHC supercharged V8 is a direct descendant of the engine used in the thrilling Ford GT super car, and in the Shelby it makes a nice, round 500 horsepower. But it's so docile and easy to drive, you'd never realize so much power is on tap. Give it to your mother to drive to the grocery store and she'll never know, but full boost comes up faster than you can put your foot on the floor. The six-speed manual gearbox is a joy to row through the gates and if you're quick enough the engine pulls with the urgency of an electric motor. The Shelby also got a comprehensive suspension upgrade, gigantic disc brakes at all four corners, and, of course, those gorgeous Shelby 18-inch wheels. And it's so well-preserved and has so few miles, it's still wearing its original Goodyear performance radials.

Fully documented with the original window sticker, order forms, and manuals, this car is the real deal. It was issued order number 0001 from Sam Pack Ford in March 2006 and all the paperwork is there to prove it. If you like pedigrees, this late-model Shelby has one that'll beat all the others, hands-down. Call today!
