South Carolina Title Shows "Actual" Mileage
Collectible Motorcar of Atlanta is proud to offer this
exceptionally low-mileage 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, showing
just 1,991 miles and representing one of the most significant
factory-performance Mustangs of the modern era.
At the heart of this Shelby is Ford's legendary 5.8-liter
supercharged Trinity V8, factory rated at an astonishing 662
horsepower and 631 lb-ft of torque. When introduced, the 2013 GT500
pushed the Mustang into true supercar-performance territory, and
more than a decade later its combination of enormous displacement,
supercharged power and a traditional manual transmission remains
exceptionally desirable among collectors.
Power is routed exclusively through a Tremec six-speed manual
transmission, then through a lightweight carbon-fiber driveshaft to
a Torsen limited-slip differential. It is a drivetrain combination
that delivers exactly the kind of analog, driver-focused experience
that has become increasingly difficult to find in modern
performance cars.
This particular GT500 was ordered with the highly desirable SVT
Performance Package, which adds a number of important chassis and
performance upgrades. Among them are Bilstein electronically
adjustable dampers, allowing the suspension characteristics to be
altered from inside the cabin, along with the SVT-tuned suspension
and Torsen differential.
Exterior
Finished in Sterling Gray Metallic, this Shelby has an aggressive
yet sophisticated appearance. Matte black racing stripes extend
over the hood, roof and rear deck, while corresponding side stripes
incorporate the GT500 identification along the lower body.
Additional exterior details include:
Shelby Cobra grille emblem
Shelby Cobra front-fender badging
Functional hood heat extractors
HID headlights
Fog lights
Rear deck spoiler
Tinted glass
Polished dual exhaust outlets
Distinctive contrasting mirror caps
The combination of Sterling Gray Metallic, black stripes and
Shelby-specific bodywork gives this GT500 a restrained but
unmistakably serious presence.
Wheels, Suspension & Brakes
The GT500 rides on staggered 19-inch front and 20-inch rear forged
alloy wheels, giving the car the proper stance while providing
clearance for its serious braking hardware.
Stopping power comes from four-wheel disc brakes with Brembo front
calipers, while the SVT Performance Package's electronically
controlled Bilstein dampers provide a level of chassis
sophistication that matches the immense output of the Trinity
V8.
Interior
Inside, the cabin remains focused on the driver while still
providing the comfort and technology expected from Ford's flagship
Mustang.
The front sport seats are upholstered in Charcoal Black leather
with contrasting inserts and embossed Shelby Cobra logos. The
cockpit features Shelby-specific instrumentation, a leather-wrapped
multifunction steering wheel and the unmistakable cue of a
conventional manual shifter in the center console.
Equipment includes:
Factory navigation system
Electronics Package
Shaker Pro premium sound system
SYNC connectivity
CD stereo
Dual-zone automatic climate control
Cruise control
Power accessories
Shelby-specific gauges and instrumentation
The instrumentation includes a 220-mph speedometer, tachometer with
a 7,000-rpm redline, and supplementary displays for vehicle and
performance information.
The Trinity 5.8-Liter V8
The centerpiece of the 2013 GT500 is unquestionably its hand-built,
supercharged 5.8-liter Trinity V8. Rated by Ford at 662 horsepower,
it was among the most powerful production V8 engines in the world
when introduced.
Unlike many contemporary high-performance cars, that output is
paired with a six-speed manual transmission, leaving the driver
directly involved in delivering all 662 horsepower to the rear
wheels.
That combination-large-displacement supercharged V8, manual
transmission and rear-wheel drive-is a major reason the 2013-2014
GT500 has become increasingly important to modern Mustang
collectors.
Documentation & History
The accompanying CARFAX report is stated to show no accidents or
damage reported, along with service history and an "Actual" mileage
designation on the South Carolina title. With fewer than 2,000
miles, this Shelby presents the opportunity to acquire a highly
preserved example with exceptionally limited use.
Collector Significance
The 2013 Shelby GT500 represents a particularly important chapter
in Mustang history. It was the final major GT500 development
associated with the late Carroll Shelby era and one of the most
powerful production Mustangs Ford had ever built at the time.
More importantly for today's collector, the formula is unlikely to
be repeated in quite the same way: a 662-horsepower supercharged
V8, Tremec six-speed manual, carbon-fiber driveshaft, rear-wheel
drive and minimal electronic interference between the driver and
the powertrain.
Add the SVT Performance Package, Electronics Package, desirable
Sterling Gray Metallic/black-stripe color combination, clean
reported history and just 1,991 miles, and this GT500 checks many
of the boxes enthusiasts look for in an investment-grade modern
Shelby.
This is not simply a fast Mustang-it is one of the defining
American performance cars of its generation.
