Is The Base Shelby GT500 The One You Want To Get?

The Shelby GT500 is one of the iconic badges in the history of cars. The history and the heritage behind it and the association with Carole Shelby make it even cool. So this latest version of the Shelby GT500 is the best one so far and the one I have in this video is the base trim with the standard seats, wheels, tires, and aero.
The GT500 is available in two main trim packages. The base and a carbon fiber track package add on which makes it racier and much more expensive. After driving the carbon fiber equipped GT500 I always wondered what the base one would drive like. Would it be good enough to drive on the daily basis. Does it still look cool without the big aero pieces.
Overall, regardless of the base vs track package discussion, the GT500 is such a cool car that we will most likely miss when its gone. With rumors of the newest version of the Mustang eventually getting some type of electrification, I think its inevitable that the GT500 will get it too. But, beyond that, is the base version of the GT500 the one you really want to get? We're going to find out!

What do you think of the Shelby GT500!

@bigbronco94 Год назад

At 5:55 it sounds like American muscle

When they see SE edition 825hp or code Red 1300 TT change the opinion fast

@@namename1 SE edition? What's the full name you're referring to would like to know more. thx

@jds1342 Год назад

@@deepin2u Signature Edition. It's offered by Shelby American, they upgrade your car's looks and customize it, I believe only 100 made per model year (2020-2022)

Really enjoyed your video. I have a 2020 GT500 and love it. It drives so well and is very fast.

Good review... but it doesn’t tramline that bad. You're right about the mileage though.

@johnmiranda3639 7 месяцев назад

Awesome Review! Just came across your channel

@user-uy8dg6yc4i 8 месяцев назад

In normal mode, keeping up with traffic, I get 18 to 20 mpg. Easily...ram jamming gas mileage goes down of course

@GannonKupkoSr 8 месяцев назад

I still very new to mine, but sport steering seemed to mostly eliminate the tramlining that I had in normal mode. I live in PA; we have some very bad roads and highways. Also, mpg is only horrible if your foot is heavy (which is most of the time for me), but I have averaged 20-23mpg on the highway . Better than my wife's 2013 Ford Edge. But this one hell of a fun car to drive!!

@DriveSteady 8 месяцев назад

Enjoy....still one of my favorites

@MonacoMotorcars Год назад

Love the channel man. How does this compare to the zl1 1le for fuel mpg and in general? I ordered the zl1 1le due to the manual trans.

@DriveSteady Год назад

They're both pretty terrible with gas. Getting the zl1 1le with the manual is a great choice

@didiermejia780 Год назад

Nice. I would go with a zl1 1le too for the manual but I already have a GT350 so GT500 for me. I have drive a ZL1 and that thing is no joke. Super quick!!

@deepin2u Год назад

10:15 ... 'Simple, Easy to use' ... yet your pinch to shrink several times and the screen is not responding quick enough and NOT to all inputs. The ONLY thing I'd replace on either the GT-350 or GT-500 would be that screen to something more modern that fully supports 120hz or higher multi-touch. The UI I'd keep but the screen NEEDS to be replaced.

@Virvum_Juggernaut 2 месяца назад

Love this spec but prefer a manual. The new S650 Shelby Super Snake is my dream. Identifying magnesium shift paddles as plastic is quite the diss lol. Edit : Your presentation is superb brother.

thanks so much for the review. i am going to get one, still debating on the base or the carbon fiber track pack. any other suggestions would be helpful. thank you!

@DriveSteady Год назад

What are you going to use it for?

@eeepmeeep Год назад

@@DriveSteady for now street use, and actually i may take my young kid in a car seat so now im thinking im forced on the base. i just really like the spoiler, Lol, i know sounds dumb but i love the spoiler on the track pack.

@DriveSteady Год назад

You can can the base and put a wing on it. Also the base is much better for the street.

@eeepmeeep Год назад

@@DriveSteady thank you. subscribed to you as well. So is the track pack just better at the track?

@DriveSteady Год назад

I would frame it as the base is just better for the street because the seats are more comfortable, they're heated and cooled too. Plus the suspension is more compliant. The track pack is sharper handling wise, but you won't notice that much of a difference on the road.

@reggiesanders1284 4 месяца назад

How is it for long drives, say, 200+ miles or longer?

@DriveSteady 4 месяца назад

Didn't drive it that much but I would imagine it would be just fine

@hirise9419 3 месяца назад

I drove about 1,200 from NC to TX and then back two months later. Going was harder on my back than coming back. I got progressively stiffer in the lower back and hips, which I felt every time I got out to fuel up. Coming back wasn't as bad as heading to TX, but I still felt it. You feel all of the steering wheel and seat vibration from the ride quality. The suspension is stiffer than the Dodge hellcat vehicles, even while driving in normal mode.

I got a 2016 GT350… debating on getting one of these for my “daily” I work remote so don’t really commute 😂 I just might miss the manual and the Voodoo

@DriveSteady 10 месяцев назад

Can't go wrong either way. I'm bias, I say you'll miss the gt350. But the gt500 is unbelievable.
