Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Atlanta is proud to present this cool 2013
Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. The great Pony Car War has been raging
longer than many of us have been alive, with countless skirmishes
between Chevrolet and Ford over the last 40-plus years. This
particular 2013 Ford Mustang GT500 for sale is a beauty, with the
looks that you want and the options you need. Powering this beast
is a 5.8-liter, supercharged V-8 which is a punched-out version of
the aluminum-block 5.4 used in the 2011-12 GT500. The Eaton
supercharger in the engine's valley displaces 2.3 liters, spins
faster than the last GT500's blower, cranks out 14.0 psi at maximum
boost (up from 9.0), and takes more horsepower to operate than is
produced by the current Ford Fiesta. Backing this monster V8 is a
Tremec 6060 six-speed manual transmission. Hammer it from a stop
and the rush of 631 lb-ft engulfs your body, pinning your head and
torso to the seat as the GT500 blasts from 0-60 mph in a scant 3.5
seconds, on toward a quarter-mile time of 11.6 seconds at 125.7
mph. The front brakes have massive 15-inch vented Brembo rotors and
6-piston Brembo aluminum front calipers with high-performance
friction pads. Options on this 2013 GT500 include: Air
Conditioning, Aluminum Wheels, Anti-Lock Brakes, CD Player, Cruise
Control, Driver Airbag and Passenger Airbag, Leather Interior,
Lumbar Support, Performance Tires, Power Brakes, Power Steering,
Power Locks, Power Windows, Power Mirrors, Radial Tires, Telescopic
Steering Wheel, Anti-Theft System, and Performance White Exterior
Paint. This car receives an endless number of envious stares.
Engines revved at stoplights; it moves car-people to salute you.
This car is quite an achievement from a performance standpoint.
It's so pure and unapologetic, and that's something I respect.
