Vehicle Description
Chassis No. 1ZVBP8JS1C5227625
The 2012 Ford Shelby GT500 Coupe, a crown jewel in the Mustang
lineup, is powered by a formidable 550 hp 5.4-liter supercharged V8
engine paired with a six-speed manual transmission, delivering
blistering performance, launching to 60 miles per hour from a
standstill in 4.1 seconds and tripping the quarter-mile trap in
12.4 seconds. The GT500's unique design elements, like a
distinctive front bumper, grille, and 19-inch wheels, make it
instantly recognizable from other Mustangs. Solidifying its
sporting nature is true high-performance capabilities, such as its
ability to pull 1.01 g on the skid pad with the SVT suspension or
robust Brembo brakes for a short 103-foot stopping distance from 60
mph.
Presented in Grabber Blue with a Charcoal Black leather interior,
this well-cared-for example is a highly original and unmodified
example with just over 10,000 miles since it was new at the time of
cataloging. Desirable factory options include the SVT Performance
Package, which adds 19-inch front and 20-inch rear forged aluminum
wheels, a Shelby rear decklid spoiler with a Gurney flap, a 3.73
ratio limited-slip axle, and a tuned stainless steel exhaust system
with four-inch tips. Additional features include the SVT-tuned
suspension, "Over the Top" stripe delete, "Tape Stripe" delete, and
an aluminum hood with an air extractor.
Inside, the GT500 is equipped with modern amenities such as the
Shaker 500 audio system, Sirius satellite service, SYNC voice
activation, air conditioning, and a range of safety features,
including AdvanceTRAC with ESC, ABS, traction control, and airbags
for the driver, passenger, and side impacts.
This attractive, highly original 2012 Shelby GT500 captures the
essence of Shelby's legacy with its powerful performance, advanced
engineering, and distinctive design. Having completed a service in
August 2023 that included an oil change and fluid check along with
a new battery in October 2023, the car is a prime example for
further enjoyment as intended by Carroll Shelby.
