Ghastly: NBC Reveals new KITT Attack Mode

For those of you who thought that the new Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR based KITT couldn’t look any more kitsch than it already is, then you ought to check out the new Attack Mode for KITT that was revealed at the Comic Con convention in San Diego. These pictures, courtesy of ShadowFlight, show that there’s no limit to bad taste.

Ridiculous - Dealer Asking $155k for 2008 Shelby GT500 KR

When $72k can put you behind the wheel of the awesome 2009 Nissan GT-R (in the U.S.), even the $79,995 that Ford officially asks for Shelby Mustang GT500KR sounds a lot. Despite the 540Hp supercharged V8 that lurks under those menacing looks and the fact that only 1,746 unit will be produced, in the end, the GT500KR is still a Mustang.

So you can probably guess the first word that came into mind when we saw that a Ford dealer in Houston Texas put up a red Shelby GT500KR for sale on eBay with a “Buy It Now” price of… $154,991. All we can say is that with $30,000 less, you can leave a Porsche dealership with a brand-new 911 GT3 RS… -Continued

Shelby Creates Commemorative 1966 Ford GT40 Replica

Celebrating Carroll Shelby’s 85th birthday, Shelby Distribution USA under license from Shelby Licensing and in partnership with Shelby Automobiles Inc. will build a limited run of replicas based on the original Ford GT40 race cars that dominated the Le Mans in 1966 taking the first three places.

Shelby considers these cars “as newly manufactured variants of the original GT40” and as such, the GT40’s chassis is a near-exact replication of the original race car’s monocoque unibody structure down to the pressed steel roof. The only departure is the use of electro-galvanized sheet steel in the construction. The replicas features an original style fully independent suspension system utilizing an unequal length A-arm design. -Continued

Braking is achieved through vented Wilwood super light brakes with both front and rear brakes feature 12.75” discs and 4-piston calipers. Original style 15-inch Halibrand wheels are wrapped with high performance BFGoodrich g-Force Drag Radial tires (225/50/15 front, 275/60/15 rear). The commemorative replicas will be equipped only with a Shelby branded engine, including the top of the line Shelby 427FE V8.
