The high-performance partnership between Carroll Shelby and Ford Motor Company has produced some of the most legendary American performance cars ever built. Continuing that legacy into the modern era, Shelby American introduced the Super Snake program-an exclusive factory-authorized transformation that elevated the already formidable Shelby GT500 into an ultra-high-performance machine with dramatically increased horsepower, upgraded suspension, enhanced braking, and distinctive Shelby styling cues.
Offered here is a striking 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Super Snake coupe showing just 14,000 miles. Finished in Black with matte black Le Mans center stripes and Super Snake GT500 side stripes, the car features a dramatic appearance enhanced by carbon-fiber exterior trim, including a front splitter, rocker panels, and mirror caps. Additional exterior details include a fiberglass hood with scoop and hood pins, black grille inserts with fog lamps, side and quarter-window scoops, a rear decklid spoiler, sequential taillights, and Shelby trunk-lid lettering.
The car rides on forged 20-inch Shelby Alcoa wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires measuring 255/35 front and 275/35 rear, providing both grip and aggressive stance. Stopping power is delivered by Shelby Baer Extreme six-piston calipers finished in orange clamping cross-drilled and slotted disc brakes at all four corners. The chassis benefits from Shelby-tuned Eibach coilovers and sway bars, revised rear suspension components, brake cooling ducts, and a front strut tower brace, resulting in significantly enhanced handling and braking performance.
The cabin is trimmed in black leather with orange inserts, extending across the front bucket seats, rear seating area, and door panels. The seatbacks and center console lid feature embroidered Super Snake logos, emphasizing the car's exclusive Shelby pedigree. Interior features include air conditioning, cruise control, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and a Shelby/Kicker premium audio system. A short-throw shifter with white Shelby shift knob adds a purposeful performance touch, while an Escort Passport radar detector system has also been integrated.
Instrumentation includes a 160-mph speedometer and tachometer with a 6,000-rpm redline along with gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, boost pressure, and oil pressure. Mounted atop the dash are Carroll Shelby"signature carbon-fiber AutoMeter Ultra-Lite gauges monitoring boost pressure, fuel pressure, and oil pressure. Serialized plaques located on the dashboard, door sills, and engine bay identify the car as Super Snake CSM number 07SS0508, confirming its authenticity within Shelby's registry.
Power comes from a supercharged 5.4-liter V8, upgraded by Shelby American in 2011 with the installation of a polished 3.6-liter Kenne Bell supercharger and cold-air intake system. Additional enhancements include aluminum fluid reservoirs with billet caps, a revised exhaust system, and ECU recalibration performed in 2013. A chassis dynamometer test from that year recorded an impressive 727 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque, placing this Super Snake firmly among the most potent modern Shelby performance cars.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission, one-piece aluminum driveshaft, paired with a 3.73:1 limited-slip differential, providing exceptional acceleration and driver engagement.
The accompanying window sticker shows initial delivery to Prater Ford in Calhoun, Georgia, with an original MSRP of $43,765. Documentation included with the car consists of the owner's manual, original window sticker, Shelby American build invoice, Certificate of Authenticity, Super Snake service invoices, and related literature, supporting its provenance and Shelby conversion history.
With its low mileage, documented Shelby American Super Snake conversion, and dyno-proven 727-horsepower output, this 2007 Shelby GT500 Super Snake represents a thrilling modern continuation of the Shelby performance legacy-offering supercar-level power combined with the unmistakable presence and heritage of the Shelby name.
