Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Houston is proud to offer this 2008 Ford
Mustang Shelby GT500 KR. 2008 marked the return of the Shelby
GT500KR, the most powerful production Mustang ever. 1011 units were
produced that year, but demand for the "King of the Road" was so
great, that Ford green-lighted another year of production. The KR's
supercharged V-8 produced 540 horsepower, 40 more than the standard
GT500, and includes a short-throw shifter, taller, 3.73:1 rear axle
and unique wheels, tires, and suspension settings. A special
composite hood with hood pins, and unique stripes and badging set
the KR apart from normal GT500s. This KR features 453 Original
