CONS: cant grip, weighs over 4000 lbs. slow

REVIEW: The GT500 is slow, it has a live rear axle, and the upgrades to the car only seem to be the engine, with only the front breaks upgraded and rear stock from the GTs, this car still weighs too much. even with the new 500hp supercharged engine, the car cant even pull off mid 12s in the quarter mile. ...

CONS: as close to the classic muscle car experience as you can get

REVIEW: Pros and Cons pretty much sum up the 07-09 GT500 experience. This is a bonafide muscle car with Fords modern day equivalent of the big blocks of yesteryear. In the short time I've had it; I've completed a 1200 mile trip (averaged 21.6 mpg) and paid a visit to the local 1/4 mile track and ...

CONS: Known factory Clutch / Flywheel problem needs to be corrected

REVIEW: Overall, an awesome vehicle. The power plant (built by hand) puts fun back in driving, to say the least. As far as looks are concerned, this car turns heads everywhere I go. It's a surprisingly comfortable ride, considering the stiffness needed to properly harness all those ponies. On a ...

CONS: Bad wheel skip and clutch shudders out of first

REVIEW: I kept my Shelby for about a year. I loved the power, the cache and all the attention I got. But the car was pure plastic inside and it looked cheap. It was also super low tech. And the more I drove it the more it loosened up and rattled. I also had a clutch die on me in the first 5k miles. It ...

CONS: needs bigger tires

REVIEW: I can't believe what a great car this Gt 500 is,the car is solid and tight ,it is far superior to the nissan 370z and cost about the same .it is simply the best performance car for around 40000 that you can buy. ...

CONS: gas mileage, but what can you expect! it has 500hp

REVIEW: I didnt buy the car, so I dont have a great review. Drove it and it was awesome, for the price it is an awesome ride. Looks sweet, BUT my only real comment is to whoever asked why is their not an automatic? Really, no performance sports car should even be available in an automatic. Most people ...

CONS: No automatic transmission! Cannot go faster than 140 mph!

REVIEW: This car looks agressive outside, and performance is decent. The only bad thing is that there is no automatic transmission. I wonder why it is not available on this generation of the gt500. It was available on gt500's made during the 1960's and 70's, but not on this one. ...
