The new KR, like the original, is essentially a GT500 that's spent another hour or two swimming in the testosterone pool. The supercharged V-8 benefits from a new cold-air intake and a Ford Racing low-restriction exhaust. "We also tweaked the spark maps a bit," says Jamal Hameedi, SVT chief nameplate engineer. "Life is great with forced induction, because small spark changes bring big power increases." With no change in boost pressure, output is bumped to a target of 540 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque, up from 500 horses and 480 pound-feet for the GT500. A six-speed manual will remain the standard and only transmission, the ceramic-metallic twin-disc clutch already rated to handle additional power (once in the hands of owners, few GT500s, Hameedi notes, remain at 500 horsepower for long). Still, the KR will get a new, lower 3.73 rear axle (versus the GT500's 3.31), which with the additional ponies should improve acceleration significantly (expect the KR to rocket from 0 to 60 mph in about four seconds flat or less-Z06 territory).
The basic suspension will carry over from the GT500, albeit with stiffer springs and shocks, thicker anti-roll bars, and a brace across the front strut towers. "On the KR we're willing to trade ride comfort for enhanced body control and sharper turn-in," says Hameedi. In addition, ride height may be lowered slightly. "We're still finalizing the setup," says Gary Patterson (who, along with Ford engineers, will be wringing out KR prototypes at Las Vegas Speedway in the months ahead). The GT500's standard Brembo brakes also will serve in the KR, their performance enhanced via chrome-ringed front brake ducts. The production KR will ride on new 18-inch wheels supplied by Alcoa (the show car is wearing 20s).Inside, the KR will be dressed as you'd expect a Shelby special to be: "Shelby"-embossed headrests, special graphics, logo floormats, "40th Anniversary" dash plate. The KR will also get a short-throw shift lever.Exterior changes are more significant, the most obvious being the two hood pins and that large, functional hood scoop. "The GT500 has an aluminum hood, but for the KR we're looking at an all-new hood in carbon fiber," says Hameedi. "Yes, it's expensive, but this is a special car." The KR will also get a carbon-fiber front splitter, which Hameedi notes reduces frontal lift at speed.
Shelby's '68 GT500KR stole "King of the Road" from the Corvette
Buyers will order the KR through Ford dealerships. The cars will begin life as GT500s (though with the lower 3.73:1 rear axle and short-throw shifter factory-installed) before being shipped to Shelby's Las Vegas facility for engine and other mods. Ford and Shelby will build just 1000 examples. The GT500KR is still too far off for final pricing, but given its fancy carbon-fiber body pieces and other refinements, it's a safe bet that it'll start in the mid-$65K range. (GT500 owners will be delighted to know that Shelby will also offer many of the KR's upgrades in aftermarket kit form.)Naturally, we'll have test numbers for you the moment a production GT500KR is available. But why wait? It's already clear this new limited-edition Shelby will be the quickest productionMustang of all time.

Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute
Fri, Jan 9 2015Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.
Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track
Thu, 29 Aug 2013The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
Ford also working on 200-mile EV to compete with Bolt, Model 3
Fri, Mar 6 2015The Chevrolet Bolt is on a lot of people's radars. You may have even noticed friends and colleagues who harbor very little interest in the automotive world, or anything labeled as "green," who have taken notice of a 200-mile electric vehicle coming out of Detroit. Mass appeal is the idea, after all. You can include Ford in the list of interested parties, in this case with the intention of taking direct aim at the Bolt – and, by proxy, the Tesla Model 3 – with an affordable, long-range EV of its own. Ford will unveil its own long-range EV, positioned to compete with Chevrolet, later this year, according to Automobile. Details are very scarce about Ford's plans, but we do know that the Bolt (or whatever the Chevy all-electric hatchback will end up being called) is expected to offer over 200 miles of driving between charges, with a sticker price around $30,000. The other major player, of course, is Tesla's smaller, more affordable sibling to the Model S. The Model 3, also slated to go on sale in 2017, should cost less than $40,000. While Tesla has established itself in the EV world, another long-range EV out of Detroit would win some customers from the California-based startup. For now, though, we'll just have to wait, as Ford remains tight-lipped about its plans for the car. Automobile predicts a possible unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, what with California's EV mandate being a driver of strategy for various automakers. Most can agree, though, that a larger field of options – while not ideal for backers of the Bolt or Model 3 – will only benefit the car-buying public.
