Vehicle Description
Mustang, convertible, and Shelby - these are three words that
guarantee big fun and desirability. So when you can find a nicely
documented 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby convertible in a terrific color
combo, loaded, and has low mileage, well then the only other
describing word you need is "now."
This is arguably the best color combo around. The retro-style
Mustang styling lines meet a cool modern shade of Vista Blue for a
very attractive first impression. And the silver rocker stripes and
racing stripes on top are great standouts to instantly tell
everyone this is a speedy pony. In fact, all the details are quite
speedy, too. That's because the people at Shelby started with some
great GT elements like the hood scoop and premium 18-inch wheels,
and then added unique elements like the double-billet grilles,
GT350-style offset pony emblem up front, hood pins, rear diffuser,
and Shelby's name boldly across the rear. It all is presented so
well today because this car has averaged less than 2,800 miles
annually. So while the growl of the exhaust will turn heads, the
total presentation will make sure everyone's first glimpse of this
droptop is a memorable one.
The interior is dark, premium, and driver-oriented - exactly what
you want in a Shelby. With such low mileage, the leather in the
driver's seat looks great. The modern bolstering hugs you nicely,
and you can power adjust it to your perfect driving position. The
leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel gives you a clear view
at the full gauge package. And as you look to your right, you'll
spot two important Shelby upgrades - a shortened Hurst performance
shifter, and a plaque reminding you this is a limited-edition
machine. And while all of this will get your enthusiast heart
racing, you'll also love this Mustang for its luxury features.
Ice-cold air conditioning, keyless entry, power locks, cruise
control, dual front airbags, and side airbags are all part of a
loaded package. Plus, the factory radio is the Shaker 500 AM/FM
stereo with six-disc changer and an input for you modern iPod. But
the features you'll enjoy the most are the power windows and power
convertible top. After all, this means you never have to leave the
driver's seat any time you want to open this Shelby GT up to the
world. And when you do take down the top, not only does the roll
bar add extra bracing, but it's like a beacon to other enthusiasts
signaling that this is a performance machine.
Ford's 4.6-liter V8 was given some nice upgrades for duty in the
Shelby GT. This original numbers-matching powerplant came with a
cold air induction system and the Ford Racing Power Upgrade
Package, which ups output to 319 horsepower and 330 pounds of
torque. There's also a strut tower brace that really makes a
statement in the tidy engine bay and provides yet another reminder
that this is no garden-variety Mustang. Underneath there's an
X-pipe exhaust system that gives the Shelby a nice extra growl.
More than just power and sound, this car features Ford's Racing
Handling Pack, which includes specially tuned shocks & struts,
lowering springs, larger sway bars, and a 3.55 limited slip rear
end. Add in power steering, four-wheel disc brakes, ABS, and sticky
BF Goodrich gForce tires, and this is a droptop that was meant to
be enjoyed on the open road.
Complete with the original window sticker and full owner's manual
packet, you're looking at a cool machine that has the potential to
be a great collectable. Of course, we also know you won't be able
to resist adding plenty of miles to this speedy convertible. So you
get the best of everything in one affordable package. Don't miss
