Roadfly.com - 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR

[MrCleanPolo]

The KR is a beast but it's not even the most powerful. The Super Snake is king!

[TheMusicinears]

GOT AROUND 540hp :O!!!

[zZz468]

i have one !

[pelewi]

@zZz468 lucky guy then!! :P post some pictures or videos of it, please :)

[JxT1957]

would be nice to have a shot of the dashboard and interior

[fdawg122]

i saw one of these,only 1,000 were made

[CropDuster33]

Sure muscle beats imports ALL THE TIME!!! but id still rather have an import 

[aeroaa2]

KI3T

[MrLsxtransam]

no zr1 is the king of the road 630hp

[Zinizzle]

@MrLsxtransam The corvette is an unreliable piece of junk. I know it's a pony car but damn, I want a vehicle I can live with on a day to day basis. The Mustang is fast, handling is incredible for an American pony, practical, fit and finish is easily the best, and it's practical, and fun to drive. And the Chevy Camaro is just a flat out mess. Government Motors is bankrupt for a reason.

[azam1123]

@MrLsxtransam its a kr and if u bringin zr1 then i say gt500 supersnake will crush zr1 in no time

[SHERLOCKSKY]

QUE HERMOSO AUTO!!!

[FlabWagger]

Only 712 of these were made. There was one up at our local dealer for $92,000 and the guy that bought it uses it as his everyday car.

[maximilianboo]

@FlabWagger my neighbor has one... he tuned it to 700 horsepower and he drove me in it.. man that thing is so fast... he also has a carrera gt..

[jamesfede2345]

ford mustang cars are the best car in the world i am in love with them.

thank you for making this car it is the best car out there

[whatever0481]

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CAR IN THE WORLD!!!

[KleinJannixD]

My mustang.I love the car!!!!<333

[suckitgood101]

it is still a ford american piece of crap. u can add all superchargers u want it still garbage compared to european and jap counterparts.

[BrianM2686]

I LOVE <3 this car!!!!

[MultiAngel38]

It talks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1



[andrea310596]

knight rider car!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheDalynJans]

NICE!!!!!!!!!!!

[baberuthistheman]

i agree In America we race straight up . .not around the block! . American Muscle !

[micmav71]

Just had an erection!

[LegitDVS]

i almost cried....

[JohnnyGTR34]

Hate to say it, but when it sees a corner, it gets scared and runs home.

Honestly... solid rear axle? Stone age, ey?

It is a beautiful car though...

[202Quacker]

I sooooo want one of these

[tutzgureanu1981]

"...ladies and gentlemen, meet the king of the..." what? America heard about BMW?

[99oler99]

....yes....that's because they said it....-.-

[runnermonkey]

tutzgureanu1981 BMW is ok but they have no muscle cars like the American stuff, not even close The roads in USA are straight not the twists of EU. Big cars for a Big country it only makes sense

[pelewi]

But you got to know. Your muscle cars have a real big engine but too little kW. Just like Chevy Camaro SS from year 1988. I saw one 2.8l with V6 and only 111kW!!! That can do some italian alfa romeo 156 2.4l turbodiesel!!

[starview1]

Not to mention that toyotas big problems with stuck accelerators that so far toyota doesn't know how to fix. Definately avoid toyotas

[whatever0481]

@runnermonkey therefore American cars are useless in corners where european are well balanced and good at straight too...

[runnermonkey]

@whatever0481 yup,U would be in part correct,while most USA muscle cars would be poor in cornering, some are quite excellent just as many euro cars may do well in cornering most have no real power. Of course the USA doesn't have many of those narrow radious corners and narrow roads like Europe has. Especially in SW USA mountain climbing highways really are easier to deal with with Bigger engines, 4cyl are ok but pokey,diffeent application different tools,thanks for your time

[tyIerz06]

America dominates at V8's, heavy duty trucks, and muscle cars. Leave the dinky stuff to Europe and Japan.

[datkoolbrutha]

Do they even still make TVR? Do they have TVR cars still in production? The TVR company hasn't sold anything in years that can even compare to the sales record of the Ford Mustang! Look at how many owners have had TVR,and none have done shit for that auto company.The person that said he saw a TVR leaving the Mustang crying....THAT WILL BE THE LAST TIME HE WILL SEE SOMETHING LIKE THAT.When you see it happen on a regular basis,maybe it will get my attention, but PLEASE,SHUT THE HELL UP!

[Viper3144]

Yes, In fact they just came out with another widow maker...no airbags ect.

[SD3255]

Kinda interesting that the new 2010 gt 500 standard gets 500+ lol and you can get it for 40,000 average. Wonder how the new KR improves on that. Hmmm..

[bluemondaylok]

muscle beats import ALL THE TIME!!! i seen even stronger mustangs.

[failingcargo]

@bluemondaylok Mercedes is the new muscle car(:

[MegaJimmie420]

@bluemondaylok  amen to that brother!!

[p4horror]

@bluemondaylok You got that right bro!!

[shaqandlouis]

I saw one of these drag racing on the Isle of Wright [ of the cost of South England for all you yanks who dont know ] and it was racing a TVR Cerbera, and, well, the TVR left the GT crying lol . British, German & Italian cars dominate the car industry =]

[j4151990]

not any other category except super car and luxury i doubt euro cars will ever dominate the muscle category

[shaqandlouis]

Muscle Cars are about the only thing American cars are renown for.

everything else i.e. Luxury , Sports, Coupe, Super Car, High Class, Rally, Racing, Land Speed, 4X4, And specialist others are basically British, Italian & German run .

[ErGravit1]

i think we dominate trucks as well.

[shaqandlouis]

Oh yes aha i forgot about those !

Look at English Trucks compared to American. American ones are HUGE things and likemake our trucks look like toy truck lol

[NJRocks281]

Bullshit American 4X4's shit all over Europe

[shaqandlouis]

you obviously havent ever heard of Range Rover Sport TDV8 ? or Land Rover Discovery 3 ? or Land Rover Defender ? All rated the best 4x4s in the world. All british.

[NJRocks281]

They are not the best, H1 would shit all over any of em. Only people who are obsessed with them are British. The US has Jeep as well which is very reputable and is the original 4X4. We also have a number of smaller ones..

[shaqandlouis]

am I the only one reading this ? An American trying to tell me that the H1 is better than a Range Rover Sport ? Top speed of a range rover is 155 MPh.. H1 is only 110. RR 0-60 time is 8.4 seconds. H1 is 14seconds. RR uses the most sufisticated equipment ie adaptive dynamics. Its so much better, and is nicknamed the " go anywhere vehicle". Speaks for itself. RR & LR have a distinct reputation as the best 4x4s.

[NJRocks281]

Wow you proved nothing, top speed?? Are you kidding me. We are talking about 4X4's and the H1 would rape the range rover. Type in Hummer vs. D90 on youtube. Sit down boy. H1 is a fucking military grade beast.

[shaqandlouis]

that wasnt even a Landrover. All Landrover Defender models were right hand drive. and you could see the guy was a crap driver, he wasnt even trying. The only good thing about the H1 is the ride height. RR would demolish it, have you seen what it can do ? and the H1 would probably run out of fuel just from going up one little hill with only 8MPG. Thats just pathetic, you wouldnt get from one Petrol station to another. H1 are also notorius for breaking down alot with the prop shaft.

[NJRocks281]

Sorry you can't dispute reality with nonsense statements and emotions from your imagination.

Watch this video Yf9FPs40VUM

Or type in Hummer and watch first video.

[yzrider2222]

think thats fast my 1972 volkswagon beetle will blow it away

[md81593]

i saw one of these on main street the other day. same exact car. man that thing sounded so aggressive in person

FORD

[GhostOfSpartah]

this one is freaking perfect..i love this baby:0

[TRDism]

they do have super mustang, its the gt 500 supersnake

[TheIncridibleOne]

chevy brought out the insane ZR1! ford needs to contruct a super-mustang

[mcromance1]

lol

did he just call this car the king of the road?

lmfao!

[917smoke]

come on man...

the "KR" in "GT 500 KR" stands for King of the Road. It has since the 60s.

[mcromance1]

for the amount of money you pay for this car, you might as well buy a ZO6 for that price. better car.

[917smoke]

of course the ZO6 is more car. thats not the point.

[mcromance1]

well

i'm just saying that the ZO6 is more

"king of the road", than the GT500KR

[SupercarsReporter]

fuck you and your z06 and your zr1 bullshit. WANNA TALK ABOUT VETS!!!! GO TO A VET VIDEO! IF U WANNA POINT OUT THAT THIS CAR IS WORSE THEN VETS THEN GTFO

[MrGTODude]

Take your redneck, white trailer park trash talk somewhere else too...LMFAO

[TRDism]

NEGATIVE kr mean knight rider

[917smoke]

TRDism-

what are you smoking?

look it up.

[davidsimsjr55]

The 2008 Zo6 owns 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR...Factual.

[jfuse1]

only on some things but it does

[johnnybravo1180]

says who?

[davidsimsjr55]

copy and paste :

2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 vs. 2008 Ford Shelby GT500KR -because ignorance is not bliss...

[dewan05]

so your going to pay $35,000 more for 40 more horse power and and upgrade from a shity suspension to an even less shityer suspension.

[xboxguy1694]

Yup. =]

[kita534]

dude they dont fuck with the suspention at all one of my friends hadone at his shop and a normal gt and they have the same suspention

[allexbrn]

most great car from romania

[mardym87]

[buuye]

and then after this was aired...tests concluded that this was a piece of crap and was over priced and overrated. mustangs r well mom cars

[buuye]

king of the road?

ahahaha thats a joke.

Z06 is KING of THE ROAD!!!!

Z06: 0-60 in 3.6 seconds

KR 500: 0-60 in 4.9 seconds.

[DRkid908]

Sorry beg to differ, the GT-R smokes both of them bad in a drag and especially around the cornerss

[Dani01c]

lol! well that shut him up! haha

[jgmtiger]

2010 dodge viper king of teh road 0-60 2.3 sec bro

[buuye]

VIPER and Z06 are king of the road.

[danielrockopower]

YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA­AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHH This is my Car

[vicekidzef]

The is the best car to ever be put on the road even better looking then the 09's

[Towelman20]

No this car is crap because they cant even get the clutch/gearbox (transmition) drivetrain or suspension right and the car barely has any traction or stabillity and the ride qaulity in this is crap if you drove it over a tiny stone you d crack your spine and the clutch/gearbox cant even handle the cars power or torque the gear shifts are so rough.

[1vdn992]

And a Fine Road Car It Is, Imagine Rolling Down the Highway in that.

[monsterofdead]

Five points. I love this car!!! ))

[shawnleenassim]

what does KR stand for?

[Avatarblackwolf]

King of the Road

[svo289]

will this colors be available on the 2010 shelby does anybody know

[coogie182]

This is just a perfect car.

[pacocinco]

no, it has 540 on the dyno easily

[walters1992]

aint that car really got 440bhp not 500 like thay say it does.

[pkrishnametal]

based on the bbc show, yes ...it has only 440 bhp

[darpachief]

LOOOL am i the only one that still likes the look of the old models. like 60s versions ?

[n2ocomet]

If I only had 60k!

[cstrikeplaya]

i am not a fan of american cars.. but i fucken want one of these ford shelbys so bad. the blue colour and white stripes on a ford shelby looks like one of a kind carr!

[kidofponymaker]

Thanks Mr. Shelby for all your work with Dad! Love ya!

[budangZki]

wow! this thing is a drop dead gorgeous!!!

[corvetteddie]

Always remember what kind of quality ford puts out, Fix or Repair Daily, did you see that thing lumber on the cornering? Vette's hold together better I'm still driving My 25 year old one daily and hardly ever have trouble with it.

[ShelbyGT88]

You cant compare a vet to a ford. Im a big mustang fan and ill admit Ford cars are problems. Depends how good you take care of it.

[WingedSliver]

agree, also depends how good you drive it, i have a 2002 mustang gt and i drive it daily for several miles at highway speed since i was 17 yo and never had problems with it

[fortification7]

Nice coment retard, the mustang and vette are in two different leagues and there is nothing wrong with ford's quality.oh ya and ford wouln't even think of build something out of fiber glass. Don't they build canoes out of fiber glass?

[shbycbra427]

You are totally right about it being stupid to compare a Mustang and a Corvette but there is nothing wrong with making a car out of fiberglass.

[Avatarblackwolf]

I agree, why do morons compare Mustangs and a Corvettes? is a 4 passenger sedan, the other a 2 seater sportscar.

1 has a base price of $19.000 & the other a base price of $42,000

[jimmyjamesWang]

coupe.... it only has two doors......

[tayross97]

bmw are one of the best cars you can get as far as reliability..they offer a 4 yr/40000 no mantance cost..

[tayross97]

yeah i see what you mean about the lexus..but all im saying is that why would you buy this when you can get a BMW 335ix or even a BMW M3, both of which are better cars as far as reliability, handeling, interior, responce, and basicaly everything else you can think of..it just dosent make sence to me

[morbidfrost]

bmw are shit for reliability

[dabrush7]

Oh, and this should mean something coming from an IS fanatic - the IS250 and 350 looks awful.....ugggg.....ugg god yuck. You gotta be outa your mind to buy one of those things. This Ford looks great.

[dabrush7]

I own a modded Lexus is300 and the thing looks, feels and drives like a fuckin base toyota. I've driven a few friends' is350's and while they're powerful, they're nowhere near special. I'm not a Ford fan, but I have owned a few and I have NEVER had any of the problems that so many people talk about regarding their Fords. My ford truck and van both performed and held up great. The problem is that so many ignorant, poor schmucks buy Fords to save money that Fords get abused. Its simple.

[tayross97]

not at all..i'd much rather have a bmw 335 or lexus IS350, better handeling, higher quatity, reliable, a nice interior,ect...i wouldn't get it, it's a ford for starters, not to mention it's very unreliable and a p.o.s.

how else do you think they get that much horse power for the price(they use cheap parts)

the ONLY way it the shelby is better is in a straight line

[q123477]

This car could kick the living fuck out of a lexus AND the beamer you have.

[tayross97]

bye*

[tayross97]

why would you by this car..?

the only good thing about it is the horespower

[mindauas]

its so nice/...

[lukefl250]

this car cant touch the challenger or the new camaro ford sucks

[drfaticus]

are you drunk or stupid

[Avatarblackwolf]

just remember how the challenger the new camaro are just copies of the Mustang. And if Ford suck, then why is GM & Chrysler begging the Feds for money, and Ford is not.

[shbycbra427]

Ford is not begging for money because they have run their company properly and GM/Chrysler have not. The big 3 sort of slacked off on their quality a bit and Ford is the only one who has really bounced back recently. GM has the new Malibu and their trucks, which are always good but pretty much everything else is not as good as it should be yet. I have to be honest. I am a huge Corvette fan so I don't want to see GM go under but they really need to get their shit together.

[dbratboy92]

ford also own several foreign company's such as Mazda, land rover, and Volvo, which help ... i don't see why Chrysler is asking they should get their help from Mercedes

[shbycbra427]

Yeah true. Apparantly the Escape is actually a Mazda and that thing has been a great vehicle. I really hope all three make it though. It would suck not having either one of them around.

[Avatarblackwolf]

Ford sold land rover, and Volvo

Mercedes no longer owns Chrysler

[dbratboy92]

i know i heard about Mercedes and Chrysler but land rover and Volvo and mazda were still owned by ford the last time i knew ... who were they sold to... i knew ford sold jaguar and Austin martin

[bfr74vz]

I love my Mustangs but the KR is seriously underpowered. 625hp would have been more suitable.

[smoof60]

true, but the super snake has the same looks and a lot more horespower

[danStangtheGmanT]

I love Mustangs. Everywhere I go, people are always trying me in traffic. Everyone feels like they have something to prove when they pull up next to a Mustang. The more people badmouth them, the more I love my car.

[71cudalover]

this is a real mustng dude, so far its the most powerful one to ever come out

[BklynJayL]

Well..., try telling it to this Douchebag, on here named "HondaJapanPride"! I've been arguing with this FOOL ALL NIGHT, lastnight about Ford/Lincoln vs Toyota/Honda and, the U.S. economy! You're welcome to checkout or, even join our argument on the vid. called, "2008 Toyota Sequoia 4WD First Drive by Edmund's Inside line"! Lol.. ;-)

[xoobis]

I am Car Crazy dot kom to see my McLaren prototype turbo car plus my V8 Fiero that can also run this snake down...

[xoobis]

The V8 Fiero ia for sale the Manta McLaren is not for sale...

IamCarCrazy dot kom

[Beverlysboots]

Problem with American Cars the suspension is as way to soft, they cant handle high speed comfortably and they can't corner worth a shit. Too heavy? no problem, just put a bigger engine in it..Think american! err Newton ring any bells? Object/mass? The problem is you have other european cars that weigh less, can corner better and would see this off on a race track! I would love to see it beat a BMW M3 or a porcsche, but it ain't going to happen is it? It is a shame, mean looking ain't it!!

[Siper2]

Normally I'd agree with you, but the GT500KR handles a hell of a lot better than the other current Mustangs. If you care to check in to any of the specs on it, you might find yourself surprised.

Oh... and this coming from someone who doesn't drive American cars.

[lovemyshelby]

Try my Shelby GT it has a sport suspension and it is really stiff. Still have issues with the rear end though

[slbiggs36]

There's no way to rationalize paying $80,000.00 for this.

[arjaya]

well the gt500 is around 50 plus tax and the KR package is another 35k... I suppose the standard Shelby without the kr package is within a reality for most of us....... (yea i'm still dreaming!)

[ibanezkid07]

yea if your an economical douche like yourself

[crackhead350455]

just sell the house. you really don't need it

;)

[kdvincent1982]

Get a Viper for less than that if you look enough. Viper's are better, too.

[smokey65662]

This totally just gave me a hard on :)

Gotta love those Shelby's

[tacord]

Haaaaaa. Love it? go fuck that monster.

[200twistatwista]

love that bodystyle.

This is the only good Ford Car made rest of fords are trash excluding all the tough old

Ford Trucks.

[HKSImports]

Hell yeah haha I have this car as my background very nice quality!

[dalton21jack]

i saw one of these today in ocean city, black with a red racing stripe and a sick black and red interior. i orgasmed when i looked at it

[RAMCHOram]

If I have that money I would get one...

My Dream CAR....

[Msyntage]

I must have this car...

[babot99]

i love that car

[dufferzzzzz]

I don't like it.

[01Danny2k701]

i would actually rather drive that car than any other car i know, veyron, aero TT, enzo its fuckin SICK!!!

[goblinyadig913]

wow ford iz killing but da last mustang only had 475 hp so they lied but its still a grait car

[voodoo1416]

[rambout2k4]

Ford Mustang - i got 1 Shelby gt-h, it just OWNZ!

Ford + Shelby, love ya!!

[psychotic22]

sick car. I'm not a ford fan or anything and I don't like the mustang too much [the so overly common ones] but the shelbys are so badass looking and I'd definitly love to own one some day.

[jackyp91]

thts crap

[kyle12399]

Wow love the body of the car, espesically the front, personally I'd paint the Shelby all red and have white racing stripes over now that would be my kind of ride!

[rapper109]

still can't touch the ZR1....

[Cobra7777]

What's a ZR1?

Do they make them anymore?

I never see any on the streets.

I see plenty of Mustangs

[GSCrepresentative]

ZR1 is the new Corvette... it looks exactly like the old one except the hoods kinda dif, n the engine. hard 2 tell teh difference though,

[unholyghost99uk3]

holy shit thats the best colour 2

[matt2964]

wow

[Nalybatus]

this is my dream. i WILL obtain one.

[thok78]

Guys, I think i got a BONER

[edmannumber1]
