Shelby 1000 S/C: The super Mustang

At last year’s New York Auto Show, Shelby American was still mourning the loss of Carroll Shelby, but that didn’t stop the company from unveiling its 950-horsepower 1000 in celebration of the American performance car specialist’s 50th anniversary.

At this year’s New York Auto Show, Shelby is back, this time with the almighty 1000 S/C, which is based on the 2013 Ford Shelby GT500.

This all-American muscle car is powered by a very compelling 5.8-litre V8 that delivers fully 1,200 horsepower.

Shelby plans on producing 100 units of this super Mustang.

How much does this modified 2013 Shelby GT500 cost? $155,000 USD, not counting the cost of the original car. All told, this 1,200-hp speedster will set you back about $210,000 USD.
