No matter how nasty, ferocious, and fast a car may be, there are always guys who want more. More power, more
speed, more performance. And for those guys, a garden-variety Ford GT500 just wasn't enough. Enter this 2007 Ford
Mustang Shelby GT500 Super Snake, a 600+ horsepower monster that over-delivers on one heck of a big promise.
To get a Super Snake, you'd buy one new 2007 Shelby GT500, then send it back to Shelby American for the big
horsepower injection. Of course, it's a lot more than just more power, with the Super Snake getting some special
emblems and its most iconic feature, the custom hood with that giant scoop, all made of carbon fiber and rumored to
cost more than $25,000. Each. The Vista Blue paint is factory-issue and like new in every way, and there's no
question the guys at Shelby understood what customers expected in a $100,000+ supercar. Panel fit is excellent, the
paint looks miles deep, and those satin black stripes add just the right aggressive look without being
overpowering. Standard GT500 body parts round out the look, and there's nobody in the world who won't fall in lust
with this Mustang the moment they lay eyes on it. The fact that it's showroom fresh only adds to the appeal.
The interior is standard GT500 as well, but that's hardly a bad thing. Deeply sculpted seats now wear "Super
Snake" embroidery on the headrests and there are some special floor mats, but the rest should be familiar. What
that really means is that the money was spent on the important stuff under the hood and since nobody's complaining
about the accommodations in the Super Snake, well, better to just leave well enough alone. The black leather
remains in excellent condition, as you'd expect on a car with under 8535 original miles and the list of features is
as long as your arm: A/C, power windows, locks, seats, and mirrors, cruise control, tilt wheel, and a kickin'
stereo that'll make your ears bleed before the engine will. Auxiliary gauges were added up high to keep an eye on
the warmed-over engine, which, incidentally, was sold without a warranty simply because Shelby knew what kind of
guys were buying such an animal. No surprise there. This car also has a spotless trunk still outfitted with a big
subwoofer kit; hey, with 725 dyno-proven rear-wheel horsepower on tap, curb weight is almost irrelevant.

Ford profiles surprisingly affluent Focus ST buyers
Fri, 08 Nov 2013It comes as no surprise when Ford says that 32-percent of Focus ST buyers are under 35, but we weren't expecting this: the average annual salary of Focus ST buyers is $127,000. Twenty-two percent of non-ST Focus buyers are under 35, while their average annual salary is $67,000.
We like the Focus ST because it has 252 horsepower, is genuinely fun to drive and offers great value for performance-minded car enthusiasts; facts that are not lost on customers, it seems. Ford says that the Focus ST has the highest percentage of conquest sales for a non-hybrid model it sells, and that the top-four trade-ins are from Honda, Chevrolet, Mazda and Toyota. Demand for the hot Focus is strongest in Los Angeles, Detroit, Houston and Orlando.
"[The Focus ST is] having this kind of halo effect for other vehicles we'd hoped for when we invested in the ST brand," says John Felice, vice president of US marketing, sales and service, because it's helping to boost sales of other Ford vehicles.
J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.
