2010 Ford Shelby GT500









Ford is wasting no time rolling out variations on its perennially popular ponycar, and the restyled and revamped 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 aims to trump its newfound competition with 540 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque -- that's the same 40-horse, 30-lb-ft bump the old GT500KR enjoyed over last year's GT500. In fact, the engine is little changed from KR duty, although the addition of two knock sensors allows the timing to advance a bit, and a cold-air induction system improves breathing (the intake snorkel's location in the grille is responsible for moving the Cobra badge to the opposite side).
