In 1967 Carroll Shelby did what many had deemed impossible: he offered a fine American GT car at, while not a cheap
price, a price within reason. He called it the G.T.500 and starting with Ford’s Mustang, he transformed it into a
genuine, fun-loving corner carver, and all for around $5,500. It caused a stir on streets everywhere. A Santa Cruz
Sentinel review from July of 1967 found that never had they tested a vehicle that got as much attention as the
Shelby G.T.500. They wrote “Kids swarmed over it when it was parked. Teenagers and grown men constantly quizzed
us about the car’s performance. And best of all, the ladies suddenly found the driver attractive.’ Those
spotlight-stealing qualities have remained with the model, which in the last couple of decades has transcended to
legendary status all thanks to a variety of factors. It has the grunt of a proper muscle car, packing a 428ci V8,
the drop dead gorgeous looks of a head-turner that balances racecar function with street machine style and deep
ties and connection to legendary driver Carroll Shelby. Car and Driver reviewed on in February of 1967 and called
it an ‘adult sports car’ and ‘a grown-up sports car for smooth touring. No more wham-bam, thank-you-ma'am,
just a purring, well controlled tiger. Like Shelby says, "This is the first car I'm really proud of.”’ That’s
high praise from a man who knew a thing or two about building performance-oriented machines that looked cool and
went fast. Car and Driver came away from their tester impressed, ‘expecting a cataclysm on wheels, the automotive
equivalent of the end of the earth. We were pleasantly surprised to discover that the G.T.500 isn’t anything like
that.’ What they found was that it was pleasant with ‘all the viciousness gone out of the car’ but ‘without
any lessening of its animal vitality.’ It reacted with a light tough with confident braking. All in all, they
liked it – a lot.

The 11 most expensive American cars ever

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

Here's a Pro Tip for all you would-be classic car investors out there: buy Ferraris. With the Pebble Beach festivities kicking off this week, including any number high end car auctions, we thought it would be entertaining to compile a list of some to the most expensive cars ever sold with the bang of a gavel. Trouble is, once you get past the splendor of everyone's favorite Italian sports car maker, that list is pretty boring.
Ferrari dominates the all-time auction sales list; seven of the top ten most expensive cars sold wear the Cavallino Rampante badge, as well as more than half of the top fifty. Sure, a nearly $30-million Mercedes-Benz W196 racecar might be the new top dog as of last year, but it's even possible that Ferrari could take that title back in Monterey this weekend. Long story short: we think a list of the most expensive American cars ever sold at auction is a lot more entertaining to read. Hell, our list has a friggin' Batmobile on it, how can it go wrong?
Follow on below for the top ten cars that are red, white, blue and a whole lot of green.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Ford Mustang pinball machine has supple wrist, plays by sense of smell [w/video]

Fri, 07 Feb 2014

Ford didn't have anything major to show off at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, so it seems it instead opted to have some fun - it brought a row of pinball machines to the show. Yes, pinball machines.
We originally told you about the Stern Pinball Ford Mustang machine a few days ago, and as day two of the Chicago show is a bit of a slow one, we opted to head to the show floor and get some snaps of the bank of new machines. Not surprisingly, there's plenty for the Mustang fan in each of these machines, ranging frond different models, to logos to a full model.
Take a look below for our full gallery of live shots, available up top. Then head below for our original gallery of stock images, along with a video and press release on the new machines.
