2008 FORD SHELBY GT500 SUPER SNAKE 725HP
This 2008 Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake coupe shows just 1,049 miles from new and is powered by a 725-horsepower supercharged 5.4-liter V8 paired with a six-speed manual transmission. The car is #26 built for 2008 and was modified with Shelby's Super Snake package, which included a larger Kenne Bell supercharger, an aluminum driveshaft, upgraded suspension components, forged 20″ Shelby wheels, a Super Snake hood, carbon-fiber aerodynamic and styling elements, and Super Snake badging.
The supercharged 5.4-liter V8 received the 725-horsepower Shelby Super Snake conversion, including a Kenne Bell supercharger, an upgraded air intake, and Shelby-branded accessories. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission and a live rear axle with a 3.73:1 differential.
Forged 20″ Super Snake wheels are fitted with Pirelli tires. Braking is handled by six-piston Shelby calipers at the front, with vented and cross-drilled rotors at all four corners. Super Snakes also received adjustable shocks, stiffer springs, and larger anti-roll bars than those used on the standard GT500.
The bodywork is finished in Vista Blue Clearcoat Metallic with factory black over-the-top racing stripes and matching Super Snake side stripes. The car is equipped with a carbon-fiber front splitter, carbon-fiber rocker-panel trim, and carbon-fiber mirror caps, as well as dual exhaust outlets, a rear decklid spoiler, a Super Snake hood with functional scoop, Shelby badging, side scoops, and rear quarter-window scoops.
The cabin is upholstered in black leather and features Super Snake embroidery on the headrests and center armrests, with embossed Cobra logos on the front-seat backrests. Factory instrumentation includes a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm SVT tachometer, and a quartet of auxiliary gauges in the main cluster, with Super Snake–specific gauges for boost, fuel pressure, and oil pressure positioned in a pod atop the dash. A dashboard plaque identifies the car as a Super Snake, noting the individual Shelby Automobiles CSM number, which is also shown on an included certificate of authenticity. The car retains its Shaker 1000 stereo system, literature from Shelby and the factory. The original glass with the original window sticker attached was removed to preserve authenticity. A new window was installed.
The Shelby GT500 Super Snake epitomizes the meaning of the word muscle car. With such high-power figures, any throttle movement is sure to bring both a smile on the face of anyone driving and a healthy dose of burnt rubber outback. The Shelby GT500 Super Snake is one of the most balanced, fastest, and fearsome muscle cars in the world. This would be a great addition to any car collection. This Shelby is surely not one to pass up. Contact LRA at 215-781-3790 or email us at Sales@LRAsales.com.
