And this is my favorite mustang/ Shelby ever hands down even over the brand new one
Same here!
And here
And here. 💯
@@AndrewNobleOfficial no its not bro. Stop lying.
@@Dat550go 🤣 not lying
Sweet car!! glad you have had it for a long while and enjoying it.
Jose Rojas thank you! Appreciate you checking it out man!! I don’t think it’s going anywhere anytime soon lol
Liked & Subscribed! Great video, loved the intro with words of inspiration and friendliness. All of this being said, as I am looking at 13’-14’ GT500’s, would you still roll with this in terms of ALSO looking at 12’-13’ Boss 302’s? Whichever I get, is going to be my “errand runner” / daily. Some would say it’s stupid but it’s about smiles per gallon. Obviously there’s a huge price gap on those but one thing that keeps flowing in my head is the fact that the 500 is supercharged. I’m not sure how long down the road it would be before getting wife approval on throwing one into a Boss 302 haha! So would you still rock with this / regret selling it if you did?
Awesome thank you so much! 🙏🏽 And yes absolutely I will own another 13-14 gt500 one day. I owned that car for exactly 5 years and don’t necessarily regret selling it because it put me in my R8 but there’s times that I say man I miss that raw power of the car. I get a feeling if you go with the 302 which is a beautiful car by the way, there will come a point when you crave more power and you’ll consider forced induction anyways.
Nitpick city. Face it, the 13-14 GT500s are etched into American performance car history. Whiney owners should probably study the history of musclecars or switch hobbies altogether.
Thanks for checking it out. Watch my vlog where I list the reasons I love the car 👌🏽👍🏽
Talk about "old" guys & 1%'ers of your channel (other than Aunt Mary). I just turned 81 and love your channel and Shelby GT500 info - I drive a 30K mi Audi S7 Twin Turbo V8. it's fast - love it too. Just subscribed, keep posting those videos.
Thank you so much! I love those S7’s 👀 Appreciate your support!!
Awesome vid!! What lowering springs are you rockin?
bigbezee18 thank you so much! I am running the eibach sportlines. Great eye!! Are you considering dropping yours?
I prefer cars without backup cameras, with hood props, and the brake dust can be remedied by purchasing aftermarket brake rotors and/or ceramic pads. I like the subtlety of the car's design. I would love to own a 13'-14' Shelby GT500. BMR makes an anti-hop wheel package. I've heard they're wonderful. These car's are special for numerous reasons, but especially because this was the last year Carrol Shelby was involved with the mustang. His contributions were for people like me, people who wanted a well rounded, tough as nails Mustang, with the Mustang pushing all limits. This one 3.5s 0-60, 7.4s 0-100, and a top speed of 200mph. Now, let's talk Super Snake. . .
Just found the channel! Love the Shelby! Mind if I ask how many miles are on it?
Race Gas Smells Good thank you so much!! I just hit 41k miles on a 2013. Are you in the market for one?
They have a different front bumper with big round fogs down low and a larger lower grill it looks more aggressive. The rear wing looks optional from the factory and alot of guys with the v6 and gt. The big snakes look sick and as you said the badass hood. I think they did quite a bit to differentiate it from other mustangs. Svt was always about subtle changes that make the car look and perform better than a regular mustang but it's subtle changes that your average person don't notice. I think they look sick personally.
You’re so right! They look menacing from the front for sure. The parts for mustangs have always been easy to switch out so yes people with V6’s and GT’s can make theirs look like it with minimal effort.
Is the car lowered? Seems like it wasn’t aligned right if the front wheels are wearing that uneven. Also, it sounds like you have mufflers on the car? If that’s the case go back to the stock mufflers and it’ll quiet it down
Thanks man for the info! It was a lowered car so you’re for sure right. I no longer have it though. Onto modding the R8 👍🏽
I have the same issue going from 1st to 2nd in my 2011 what I find helps though is if I just pull straight back and don’t force it to the left while I’m pulling back if I just go from one straight back to two it seems to work better I have a tendency to want to push my shift to the left while I’m pulling it back but if I try to not do that, for some reason it shifts better.
5 years! That’s some dedication,I need to chill I change cars every year smh 🤦🏻♂️😂
Larry Upinhere hahah yea the others cars have been moving in and out too. The Shelby stayed tho. I’m constantly on auto trader tho so we’ll see. You have some big build plans for the stang so maybe it’ll stick around for a bit
Wtf do you lease? Or do you just have deep pockets lol
5 years is to long i have had marriages that lasted less. I never let a woman or wife tell me what I can buy.
Love my 2013 Shelby I’ll never trade it in !!
I’ll for sure own another one 👍🏽
I don’t notice an issue at all from 1st to 2nd in my ‘14 GT500. You did explain - but yeah for my personal taste - the stripes say Shelby … as do the letters at the rear that you removed. No backup camera is my biggest complaint…. In addition to those Stock Goodyear’s …. useless and downright dangerous!! Pilot sport 4S all around and it’s totally hooked up. I love mine and no plans to sell it.
That’s good stuff! I plan on running the PS4’s next on my R8 because I have been hearing great things about them. I miss the shelby everyday but she’s in good hands and I know one day I’ll own one again! Thanks for watching 👍🏽
We brought our 2013 GT500 to Germany and it loves the autobahns. For those who want to know I've had it up to 195 ish. I usually keep it between 100-150. I still find it weird when you pass the Polizei at those speeds and they don't come after you. My only 2 complaints are when I ride on the cobbles, it rattles and creeks a bit and also when it's wet on those same cobbles it slips big time. It's only a "fair weather car" for me. We have a Ford Focus RS and my wife's Mach E.
That’s good stuff man! I’ve always wanted to drive the autobahn! That’s some crazy speeds there I think I’d be so intimidated!
How do you like the Mach E?
@@AndrewNobleOfficialWe don't know yet. The Mach E arrived and we were ready to take delivery when we got the call that there is an issue with the transmission. My wife didn't ask the questions like is it a software issue or a real transmission issue. They are in contact with Ford USA. All deliveries in Germany are on hold and it might be Europe and world wide wide? I'm sure we will like it once we get it. I've been all over UA-cam watching reviews.
@@petercolichidas7484 got it that’s cool congrats!! I’ve seen a few around here in the states and they look really nice. Keep me updated!
@@AndrewNobleOfficial We had a Tesla Model X in California. We loved it but when we moved here we couldn't take it with us as the maps and charging systems don't work in the EU. When we bought it they assured us that we could take it, no problem. We have a BIG problem with Tesla now. We lost 30K because of their ineptness!
You’ll miss that beast when it’s gone . Trust me I got rid of my 2008 gt500 and 2 years later I got another gt500 2014 . Couldn’t stand it any longer had to get another
I’ll definitely own another one day for sure. I just couldn’t swing the R8 plus the shelby but working towards that 👍🏽
I just bought a white 2012. Very similar to yours. I have trouble with 2nd gear too.
Yea I heard your gen was a little worse with the 1-2 shift. Now they don’t have to worry about it with the dual clutch lol
@@AndrewNobleOfficial ha yeah it's pretty bad. I'm going to see if there is a fix for that. Any ideas?
@@NESDwayne from what I know there are shifters that help. I also saw guys building the trans because they were doing big power upgrades.
I own one. You hate it? Lol. Crazy. One of the best cars I've owned. Heritage aside, loved the power, handling, & to me very comfortable.
I’ll own one again. Actually looking to buy this one back from current owner. But my R8 is just so much fun too.
What is the widest tire front and back that can fit on this GT500?
I have 305s and im cm from rubbing
Have you ever drove a hellcat challenger? I’m torn between this and a 2015 hc challenger. They’re roughly the same price in todays market.
Yes they are very similar in how they drive. I will own a gt500 again for sure. I am more of a ford guy than mopar so that’s the way I would lean.
@@AndrewNobleOfficial well like you mentioned not having a back up camera and I believe the hc has slightly nicer interior. I’m wondering if they’ll both appreciate in value now since car companies are pushing for electric vehicles and dodge is done making the challenger and charger. But the 13-14 was last year Shelby was alive and only mustang marketed to hit 200mph. There’s one 5 hours from me it’s a 14 with 30k miles for 51k. It’s the track package w recaros. Just not sure if I’m wanting to pull the trigger or not
@@Jhubb7 yes that’s one thing I will say is that dodge does have a way nicer interior. I had a Durango when the new one came out and it was one of my favorite things about it. Man you do have a tough choice. I’d say as long as the challenger is a manual then either one would be great
Back paint it's real 🙋🏽♂️🙋🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯 keep the good work buddy
Christian Perez thank you!! I think I’m ready to satin wrap the roof!
@@AndrewNobleOfficial let's do it 👌🏼
Christian Perez what’s your schedule look like this upcoming week?
Nice car!...what about heat soak? Heard that is a problem.
Thank you so much! Yes the engine really doesn’t take well to heat. Pretty much all mustangs suffer from it. I don’t track it much so it doesn’t bother me but I’m sure it’s on others lists for not liking their gt500.
@@AndrewNobleOfficial Yeah, I live in florida and on the fence about getting one. It gets pretty hot in the summer. Thanks for the reply!
J Malone of course man! My fam is there so I visit every year and yes it is way hot and muggy! I really do love the car though 👌🏽🙌🏽
Ford addressed heat soak with the usage of aluminum blocks on the 2011 and newer GT500s. My iron block 04 Cobra had that issue and you could feel the power drop on a warm day. The Hellcats still use an iron block I believe.
Vmp triple pass heat exchanger helps alot.
I added a backup camera to my 2012 GT500 convertible. Otherwise with the top up you can't see much behind it. And you're very wise to find out where your daughter is before reversing, a former coworker's mother backed her SUV over her 5 year old boy, he's a paraplegic now and they had to deal with his special needs as well as a suicide attempt by grandma.
i mean even though its a lot older but people still like the 03-04 terminator cobra including me. 😁
Agreed. Those cars were beasts
Idk man, taking out the SHELBY letters on the trunk just makes your car look like a regular mustang. But hey, to each their own. 👍
Agreed.
I put the hood struts on the first day I got it and car is just to plain without stripes, looks like every other mustang and boring interior but you have to be wealthy to get a 2020 and above
Yea I miss it sometimes and then I’ll get in the R8 with 2 more cylinders and it’s like okayyy I’m good lol I will have another one someday though 👍🏽
I love this car. Have you considered a zl1?
I entered into Mike’s giveaway for the zl1 lol I love my R8 though a lot but miss the muscle car feeling sometimes
@@AndrewNobleOfficial an r8 is out of my price range. But for that money I'd be interested a Porsche gt3. German cars scare me with upkeep... Once again out of reach for me.
@@ZLwh1ne yea dude a Porsche gt3rs is on my list too! Lava Orange 🤤
@@AndrewNobleOfficial id go for a dark blue. Gotta be a 6speed. But let's be clear. A house is on my list before those lofty dreams 😂. I'll just be happy with the zl1.
@@ZLwh1ne haha good stuff man! Congrats on the goals 🙌🏽 I agree with the manual cars that’s part of what I miss too. One step at a time, you already have an awesome car!
This guy could win a lottery and find something to complain about it
Totally agree!
I actually like the 13/14 GT500 over the new one.
I agree. Most raw and last of the true Shelby inspired machines!
Has it been reliable?
I haven’t owned it for a year 😢 but for the 5 years I had it, I only had 1 major electrical issue
I love th se cars but im not a fan om the 5.4. every truck i owned with a 5.4 needed so tune ups
I'm not going to give you a list, then proceeds with giving a list. I'm not going to number it, but then says, for the first thing lol.
Just playing man lol. Good video! I'm not a mustang owner but i do appreciate your detailed videos. Plus the length of them.
Lmao 😂 thank you! It was hard picking things I didn’t like for sure
Only thing i hate about mine is the gas mileage
Ohh yea! Smiles per gallon
I absolutely love my Shelby gt500 and would never sell it i have a 2012
The person who bought mine is selling her again and has me like 👀 I’ll own another one again for sure!
Never even with stock shifter missed 2nd gear. With the now MGW shifter I ONCE went from 3rd to 2nd instead of 4th while accelerating. Lastly I would like you to express your complaints in comparison to a car that costs 65-70k and has all the amenities this Shelby has @ the car in question needs to make 662hp. This car is a bargain at the 65k new price. I think your are a whiner and know you want your car to stand out but you remove the Shelby letters off the rear of car which IMO makes your car say "I'm a V6 with loud mufflers. You evidently don't know or have no respect for Carol Shelby. For the money this is by far the best cookie cutter car for the money. I know because I have two of them. Bought them used one for 39k and the other for 35k. Both black both track pack cars. One has ghost stripes and one is stripe delete. And lastly bad advice a 305 /30 or 35/20 tire is the wrong size for a 9.5 inch rim. A 295/30 or 35/20 is pushing it . You might want to sell the car to someone that knows what they have.. Other tan that you made a very informative, interesting and well shot video
Thank you for your feedback. I always welcome any and all comments. I’ve moved on from this car into the supercar realm about 8 months ago. I really did enjoy ownership of the GT500 as I posted what I loved about it too. I had to search for complaints. I’ll probably own another one in the future.
These cars aren't that special man calm down there dime a dozen
@@BigYellow1500 I know your just trolling but in case you're not I can only assume you voted for sleepy slow creepy joe and heels up harris
So what did you get
@@BigYellow1500 lol definitely not a dime a dozen. These cars are still going for what they were brand new.
I like the boss 302 laguna seca
I get scratches on my tint too 😡!!
My R8 has them now too so I’m just thinking it’s a tint side effect lol
Give thanks to god !!! Amen 🙏
Always 🙏🏽
I just bought a 2012 bone stock red with white stripes PP car. Absolutely love it but I have the same issue with the brake dust. It’s a never ending job keeping the wheels clean. That said, the dust is not that visible because of the color of the wheels.
Congrats on the purchase! Sounds like a beautiful spec!
I recently bought a 14 Shelby gt 500 svt with 6,600 miles on it. I paid 65,000 for it and traded my 2020 Shelby GT 350 for it. It's a beast
Love it!! That’s awesome!
Outch, 65k for a 14' GT500. You can get a 2020-21 now for 73-85k.
@@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq no you can't or I would have bought one by now
@@MasterCarguy44-pk2dq go find one with with 6,000 MLS for under 65,000
@@roninthedestroyer8958 They're out there. If you paid that much you hot robbed. Wait until values normalize. I do know people that have had the 2020 and 21 GT500 and they went back to a 2011 2014 MY. The original 5.4 blk is slightly stronger than the 5.8 Trinity because of the boring to bump it up to a 5.8. But otherwise those 5.4's 2011-12 and 5.8's of 13-14 are pretty damn solid in terms of quality, reliability, even with 750 rwhp/850 crank hp. Can't say that about the 5.2 2020+ GT500.

Trucks do rock! 💪🏽

Trade it in get the new one way better appearance and not to mention the horse power
It’s gone and I miss it everyday. But then I hear my V10 start in the morning and it’s not too bad 😮💨
Brother,,, SMDH,,, you want more super Charger sound but hate the exhaust note!! You lost me there!! What😳😳😳😳
Lol watch the what I love vid. I made it as a series for both love and hate. It’s hard to find a complaint about the car but I think you’d understand if you watched it :)
@@AndrewNobleOfficial I did,, watch the complete vid, I just find it funny 😄 on several occasions you contradicted yourself,, the looks for example, you took the stripes for example, or the Shelby emblems on the trunk you removed,, but stated you wanted a little more distinguished feature to separate the regular “ Mustang “ from your Shelby,, I found that Hilarious!! I own a 2010 Black with silver stripes!! I understand the love /Hate,,, But I mostly love ❤️ mine!!
@@ricardocorbie6803 you watched this video here? I did two separate videos one about loving it and one about wishing some things were different. I really do miss the car but for sure the R8 gets more attention. ua-cam.com/video/hN_LzQcPpt4/v-deo.html
@@AndrewNobleOfficial yup,,👍🏿the R8 is always gonna be more exclusive,, but the Shelby is American Royalty!! I still get thumbs up and photos taken wherever I go!! I ain’t gonna front that R8 is nice!!!
@@ricardocorbie6803 thanks man. You’re so right about the American Heritage for sure. There’s no doubt I’ll own another GT500 in the future!
I got a 2013 GT a couple years ago. I really regret not getting a Shelby.
I will for sure own one again someday
I'd rather a new edge body than this new body
Terminator for the win!
Anyone who complains about not having a back up camera should do the rest of us a favor and please just quit driving.
🤣 hahah I don’t have one in the 1965. No complaints there!
@@AndrewNobleOfficial..... good. Back up cameras are for women..... .👍
@@rodrossi9749 although they did save my neighbors toddler’s life and a lady wasn’t driving.
Go pay one hundred twenty thousand you to can have all those nice things. Buy a camaro and see how much you like that
I spent over a hundred grand and bought an R8. Still there is things that could be better. I do miss the 500 but there’s nothing like the sound of a screaming V10 🙌🏽
I’ll bet you regret taking of the Shelby in the back… you trippin
lol no not at all.
I'm watching in March 2021. Gas is over 4 dollars a gallon and we are about to be in Nuclear war. Little did we know!
2022* 😜 I paid 5.89 today 😔
That car is begging for a wrap to make it stand out more. I mean it is a Shelby
You’re so right man!
Don't care for the negative vibes on anything , your best judgement about anything in life your own self judgement, if that isn't possible get a professional opinion ,!!!
I have a white 2017 Lexus RX350F sport like yours. It’s a pretty boring car compared to a Shelby Mustang
I really did like that car a lot. I’ll for sure have another one someday 💪🏽
I want one bad.
Definitely get one!

I would say that there are cars that should only be owned and drivin by Single Adults 30 or older, These examples of cars would include 600 horses and higher. Shelbys, Hellcats . Vipers and Vettes, ect. These cars can get sideways without help. why contribute to the Widow and Orphan population.
They can be hard to handle for sure!

You don’t belong in a Shelby! Back up camera? I have four GT500’s, wouldn’t want any other car. We Americans want technology in everything. Some cars are exceptional as they come. Millennials had Hondas as teenagers, we had Camaro’s and Barracudas. Doing doughnuts was not our “thing!”
