2011 Ford Shelby GT500 Review

The 2011 Ford Shelby GT 500 comes redesigned for the model year as a lighter car, for better fuel economy and even more zip on the road. A switch to an aluminum engine from a traditional heavier design, a 5.4 V8 with 550HP output, helps breathe power into this sporty model in its trademark style, with a big split grille, dual exhaust, and other exterior features like the small trademark spoiler on the back and the GT500 racing stripe that make this fast ride look sharp. All of this makes the 2011 Ford Shelby GT 500  a good continuation of a lineup that has dazzled drivers for decades, while providing superior power on the road.

As for modern model design, the 2011 Ford Shelby GT 500 is available in coupe and convertible styles. There are not a lot of trims for this vehicle, but upgrade packages allow for custom wheels and tires, a modded suspension, and more to help drivers take advantage of the immense power in this top performance car, where the workhorse engine can benefit from a customized overall design.

Another addition for this model is power steering, to add to the
convenience and handling of the 2011 Ford Shelby GT 500. A six-speed
manual transmission is standard. Look for more details on the handling
and performance of this quicker, nimbler 2011 as well as fuel economy
and customer feedback when further reviews come out throughout the
year.
