This 2008 Ford Shelby Mustang GT500KR is #967 of 1,011 coupes produced for the model year, and it is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic with Vista Blue stripes over black leather and powered by a supercharged 5.4-liter DOHC V8 paired with a Tremec six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. “King of the Road” examples left the Ford assembly line as standard GT500s and were upgraded by the Shelby Automobiles facility in Las Vegas, Nevada, with KR-specific components including an SVT-tuned suspension, carbon-fiber body parts, Brembo front calipers, Alcoa forged-aluminum wheels, the Ford Racing Power Upgrade kit, and the Shelby interior package.
This example is one of a reported 476 GT500KR coupes finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic with Vista Blue stripes for the 2008 model year. Exterior equipment includes a carbon-fiber front splitter, fog lights, carbon-fiber mirror caps, a rear spoiler, dual chrome exhaust outlets, Shelby badging, and a revised hood with functional cooling ducts and chrome-finished hood pins.
Polished 18″ Alcoa forged-aluminum wheels wear SVT Shelby Automobiles center caps, and they are mounted with Goodyear Eagle F1 tires measuring 255/45 up front and 285/40 out back. The car is equipped with Brembo front brake calipers and an SVT-tuned suspension with revised springs, performance dampers, heavy-duty front and rear sway bars, and a front strut tower brace. An uninstalled Ford Racing brake cooling kit is included in the sale.
The cabin features seats upholstered in black leather with matching door panels and carpets. The front seat backrests are embossed with the Shelby Cobra logo, while GT500KR and Shelby signature embroidery accents the headrests. Equipment includes a power-adjustable driver’s seat, air conditioning, a DVD-based navigation system, and power windows and locks.
The dashboard plaque denotes this as #967 of 1,011 GT500KRs produced for the 2008 model year.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames SVT instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, boost pressure, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer indicates just under 90 miles.
The supercharged 5.4-liter DOHC V8 produced 540 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque when new, and GT500KRs are equipped with the Ford Racing Power Upgrade kit with a cold-air intake and a revised exhaust system. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec six-speed manual transmission and a 3.73:1 limited-slip differential.
The window sticker from Shelby Automobiles, Inc. details the features of the GT500KR package and lists a total MSRP of $35,665. The Ford window sticker is also included, which shows delivery to Louis Lakis Ford of Galesburg, Illinois and shipment to Shelby Automobiles in Las Vegas for modification. A set of locking lug nuts, manufacturer’s literature, and two sets of keys accompany the sale.
