Ford Mustang GT350 seen and heard in motion for the first time

We just recently saw our first spy shots of the next-gen hi-po Ford Mustang slated to replace the Shelby GT500, but now we're getting our first look - and listen - of prototypes captured on video. Mustang6g.com has the video (along with some different spy shots), which show that, if nothing else, SVT knows how to tune an exhaust system. The :50 mark is a good example of this, but fast-forward to around 2:00 where the driver revs the engine and really gets on the throttle hard taking off from a stop.
There's still no definitive evidence that the next-gen SVT Mustang - said to be called GT350 - will be naturally aspirated, but it sounds just as menacing as the current Shelby GT500. While the video posted below exhibits the sort of quality that is to be expected from someone driving while trying to film someone who is attempting to elude being filmed, it's still exciting to see and hear this new Mustang in motion.

2013 Shelby 1000 cranks up the horsepower dial to 1,200

Just in case a stock 662-horsepower Shelby GT500 isn't powerful enough for your taste and the 850-hp Shelby Super Snake still fails to tickle your fancy, Shelby American has introduced the monstrous 2013 Shelby 1000 as the king of the Mustangs.
Using the same supercharged 5.8-liter V8 as the GT500, Shelby almost doubles the stock engine's power, which lays down an incredible 1,200 hp... on pump gas! Aside from the upgraded engine, the Shelby 1000 also has a fully adjustable suspension and big brakes.
So how much does it take to get a Shelby 1000 in your driveway? Well, after buying a stock GT500, which starts at $54,650, Shelby will build you a 1,200-hp 'Stang for a cool $154,995. Spare Pirelli P-Zeros not included. Feel free to read through the press release below for more.
