The 2009 Ford Shelby GT500, part of the first generation of the modern GT500, is a testament to Ford's high-performance capabilities. This rear-wheel drive sports car boasts a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 engine that produces an exhilarating 500 horsepower, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. It comes in a fastback coupe or convertible design with racing stripes. Inside, key features include a leather-wrapped steering wheel, sport bucket seats, unique aluminum trim, and Shaker 500 audio system. It also includes a trip computer, an auxiliary audio jack and full power accessories. Though it doesn't house the advanced infotainment and safety features common in newer models, its raw performance and aggressive styling make it a modern classic in Ford's lineup.
