2007 Ford Shelby GT 500 Review:
Not a bad car, difficult to drive on road course with live axle. Comfortable but a little cheap for price.
Giving that this car is around $10k more than the stock GT, there should be more included that a truck engine on steroids. This car should realy stand out in looks as well as performance and not just HP performance, but handling as well.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500?
I waited and bought a used 2008 with a couple thousands miles w/out the crazy price. I've owed several great cars a 2001 911 turbo, 2005 Audi S4. This GT 500 convt is the most fun to drive. I look forward to driving it everyday. Good power, brakes, etc. Buy the convertible.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500?
Clutch at take off and interior materials.

2007 Ford Shelby GT 500 Review:

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500?
It is an awesome looking car with a ton of power.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500?
I would like to see the rear about 2" lower and a better sounding exhaust like the older 5.0's. Also it should come with a better rear traction ar system to cut domn on wheel hop.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500?
The power of my 2008 GT 500 CV clearly trumps my 2007 Corvette CV dispite what any Road and Track article (etc) has to say. I still own both. The Ford gives much more comparable feeling of the 60's 400+ hp cars which I grew up experiencing frequently from all the major manufacturers and a few foreign builders such as the Jaguar SKE.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Ford Shelby GT 500?
I love the car as is except for the review below.

2007 Ford Shelby GT 500 Review:
The car is great if you drive it on a perfect day avoiding rains going through the hood to the motor. No designed drain off was very poor engineering. There are ways and if enough interest I am about to patent a cure that will not interfere with the passing of hot air from the engine compartment yet keep the engine unexposed to the elements. If you an interested write to :FORD GT 500
121 Memorial Drive, Franklin, KY 42134. Ford has completely avoided my concerns with their nose stuck in the sand.
