I agree! If this were mine, I would probably just keep the 5.4L for simplicity's sake, and then mod that accordingly if I so chose to (bigger intake, maybe a shorter pulley for more torque) Overall very well said though. Thanks for checking out my video, and I hope you enjoyed!

Big motor that is simple and reliable and easy to work on, solid axle and the stoutest manual trans ever offered in a factory mustang.

It truly is a special car! I had an absolute blast driving it. I probably would've bought this car myself if I had the means to! I don't blame you one bit for wanting to keep it. I would do the same thing! I very much hope you enjoyed the video. If you did, please don't forget to leave me a like, and also consider subscribing!

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that, and I'm very happy you enjoyed to review. And good for you! That sounds like an absolute monster. What did you do to have to make 720 wheel?

@@DoubleClutchAutoReviews swapped to a TVS supercharger with a smaller pulley, new cold air intake, cams and some exhaust changes, that’s it. Tuned on 93 pump gas. Been making that for a few years now with no issues!

@@Everarmed89 WOW that is super impressive. Really goes to show how sturdily these motors are built. Thanks for sharing and checking out my video! Please also considering subscribing as well. It really helps me to grow my channel, and it is very much appreciated! Have fun with your awesome Shelby. Truly a special car. If I had the money to blow, I probably would've bought this one myself loll

Thanks so much! And that’s awesome, congrats! They really are, especially ones in superb condition like this one. I mean, this is a black car, and I promise you that I did not see a single scratch or even a speck of dirt on it. It was SO clean. If I was in the market for one, I probably would’ve taken this car home too lol. The only 2 things I would’ve needed to do right away were a fresh set of Michelin pilots, and a nice big air intake so I could hear that supercharger whine more! Just out of curiosity, what color is yours, how many miles are on it? And lastly, please don’t forget to leave me a like on the video, and also consider subscribing to the channel!

@@DoubleClutchAutoReviews 22000 miles , Ingot silver, track pack with glass roof option.

Thank you Troy! It was an absolute hoot. If I had the money, I may have just bought it myself! Unfortunately, this one has already been sold to some lucky guy lol. Good luck in your search either way though! This was one of the most fun cars I've driven yet, and I'm sure that they will only go up in value from here on out with the way this car market is going... Thank you for checking out my channel, and I appreciate your feedback! -Mark

Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. It was a super fun car. Like I said in the video, if I had 50k burning a hole in my pocket, I probably would've driven this car home that day. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed the video, and I hope you thoroughly enjoy your Shelby! It deserves to be driven, and driven spiritedly!

I have a 2011 and it is a fun car to drive imo.

I can’t see why anyone would hate it! Seems like that would just be jealousy to me. I absolutely LOVED driving this car. If it were more affordable for me at the time, I may or may not have literally just driven it home instead. It was pretty much everything I wanted out of a used muscle car. The paint on this was so clean, I don’t think I could’ve found a scratch on it if I tried. The only thing I would’ve wanted to upgrade would’ve been the air intake, and maybe even the supercharger pulley to try to get more whine out of it every time I hit the throttle!

👍 Sounds like an easy solution to get an awesome result!

Change to intake to which one?

If I owned this car, that would be the FIRST thing I would do to it! 😄 You're not the first person to mention that either. Sounds like that's a necessary purchase along you have to get with one of these bad Larrys. 👍 Also, thank you so much for checking out my video!

That is awesome! I hope you can too. My best piece of advice would just be to respect the power, and work your way up! Obviously, don’t try and do anything ridiculous the first day you get it. Give yourself some time to get used to it, and take baby steps. If you do that, I’m sure you will be fine. It’s not like it’s not a smart move. Unless of course, it’s not financially responsible for you right now. Other than that, enjoy it! Life is short man. A civic is a perfect daily driver compared to this. Affordable and reliable daily driver, to expensive and awesome weekend warrior! Nonetheless, I really hope you enjoyed the review video!

I learned manual in my GT500. Once you get it, it’s insanely easy to daily. Hydraulic clutch, endless torque means even on hills it’s no problem.

@@Blazerghost that's the way to do it and i been thinking about just getting what i want and trying to learn it bc i have gotten some good practice in it. Just couldn't train the way i wanted since they were not my cars lol. But heck ya man! 💯

@@dmacthetruth22 If you do get a gt500 you have to do BMR lower control arms, it’s an absolute must to tame that rear end over bumps.

@@Blazerghost oh ya thanks for that and that will be a must and i been going back and forth with a 13 gt500 I've seen or a 21 mach 1 6 speed

We're all first time manual drivers, don't let that stop you, just find someone that already knows, and get some pointers.

You are probably right! I agree that that would make a huge difference. I'm sure those tires are pretty expensive though... I'd say some good ones are probably around $300-$400 a piece. I bet it would be totally worth the investment though. I hope you enjoyed the video either way! If you did, please make sure to leave me a like, and also consider subscribing!

@hiepbui8796 I hear ya, but to be honest I feel like I wouldn’t mind that! This is also coming from someone who doesn’t own a car like that. However, I do have a 1990 Miata, and I get guys talking to me from time to time… I guess it’s just something you sign up for when you own a cool car!

I bet you are absolutely right! This car had very little miles on it (only about 11,600) and was in pristine condition otherwise. However, I think we both know that those are the original tires. With a fresh set of four, I would have hooked no problem. They also would've inspired much more confidence in corners. If I were to take this car home, the first 2 things I would do would be tires, and a larger, more free-flowing air intake. I feel like those alone would make a world of difference for this car! I'm glad you noticed my lack of traction. That certainly wasn't my friend that day! Hahaha It was still an utter thrill ride of a car though! Thanks for checking out my video.

You could be right! It did say Roush on the tips. However, I did ask the GM at the dealer, and he wasn't sure. Either way, it sounded AMAZING. I was in love with this car. If it wasn't so expensive (for me) I probably would've bought it lol

@@DoubleClutchAutoReviews I own a 2012 and have for nine years. I absolutely love mine. If you are curious of how the blower whine sounds inside the vehicle. Through the stock exhaust system. Check out a few of my videos you will be able to hear the supercharger whine and the difference with the exhaust being factory. They are short and sweet videos and get straight to the point

@@turbosaleen347 Will do! I'm curious to hear the difference. Thanks for checking out my channel, and I hope you enjoyed the video!

@@DoubleClutchAutoReviews It's funny how the people at the dealerships never seem to know what's been done to the cars they sell.

@@3602go It’s crazy sometimes!

Those would be the FIRST 2 things I would do if I were taking this home! I bet that would push it right over that edge of almost too much fun. 🔥🔥🔥 Then, I would get a new set of tires, because these are the originals, and I could definitely feel it when I was pushing the car and breaking loose so easily. 😅 I also hope you thoroughly enjoyed the review video!

Sure was my man! Easily one of the most fun cars I've driven yet.

I agree! That is awesome that you only payed $24K for. They were asking about $52k for this one at the time I drove it. This one was also insanely clean with less than 12,000 miles on it. But still, what a deal for one of these for half of that. I tell you, if I had that $52k just burning a hole in my pocket, I probably would’ve driven that thing home that day.

I agree! I once drove a 2012 Boss 302 that was all done up and used as a track car that had a watts link. You can certainly feel it! Both of these were truly awesome cars to drive. Here's the link to that Boss review if you want to check it out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pp91qLJ019zGaGg.html Thanks for watching, and I hope you enjoyed the video! -Mark

Same man, same!

I thought so too! This thing was soooo clean. Thanks for watching!

Um, I do/did?… There were certainly pulls in this video where I hit just below redline, as intended… However, I will admit to you that you do have a point regarding a good portion of the video. I am not hitting the full RPM range frequently throughout this drive. I only did it a few times. However, I need you to consider a few things that you probably didn’t notice. First of all, what are you expecting me to do when I’m jumping in this very powerful car (that I also don’t own) for the very first time? Do you expect me to just pin the RPMs and go full throttle the entire time? These tires were also the ORIGINAL tires from 2010, and I was having A LOT of trouble keeping traction as you can clearly see in the video. To boot, for New England in May, that was a relatively hot day out (80+ F). That really goes to show how easily I was losing grip in this car with this much power, while also being on this current old tire set up. Not respecting those factors are ACTUALLY how you make an amateur mistake. If you aren’t an amateur yourself, you should/would be well aware of all of that. And just to clarify, I’m not trying to put you down, or argue with you. I really try my very best not to do that to anyone that comments on my videos. Even if they deserve it, I most often ignore them, because keyboard warriors and trolls that think they are the greatest thing since sliced bread aren’t worth my time or energy at all. I am just trying to get you to see it from a different perspective. My advice to you is that you should think about what you’re saying, and consider all of the factors like that before you just comment something else on someone’s video in the future. Stay humble. Thanks. 👍
