The Ford Mustang is the only real muscle car you can buy here in the UK, and now there’s a souped-up Shelby Super Snake Mustang on offer from luxury car dealer Clive Sutton.
It’s packing a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 with 830hp, and you can even have it with a manual gearbox.
New Shelby Super Snake Mustang engine and performance
Let’s face it, the main reason for buying an American muscle car is what’s under the hood, and the new Shelby Super Snake is packing something rather special.
It uses the same 5.0-litre V8 engine as the Ford Mustang GT, only it’s been fitted with a whopping great supercharger to make over 830hp. That’ll make it pretty lairy thanks to the rear-wheel drive layout, and it’s available with a proper manual gearbox as well.
The Super Snake also has uprated suspension which is lower and stiffer to make it more agile through the corners, as well as performance brakes so it can stop as well as it goes. Weight is kept to a minimum with an aluminium bonnet and swathes of carbon fibre.
New Shelby Super Snake Mustang design
There’s not much point in buying a bonkers V8 muscle car which isn’t as shouty to look at as its exhaust note, and the Super Snake is certainly no shrinking violet.
It has huge carbon fibre bonnet vents to keep that supercharger cool, a massive front splitter and a Shelby-specific grille which also enhances airflow to the engine. You also get carbon fibre side skirts and wheel arch extensions to give it proper road presence.
Down the side you’ll notice the 20-inch forged magnesium wheels, as well as the vents in the wings which let air out of the wheel arches. You can’t ignore the wing on the back either, although you can’t have that if you go for the convertible version.
That’s right, you can have this car as a drop-top to really make the most out of the uprated Borla exhaust system, and other than the wing it looks pretty much the same as the Coupe.
