S197-generation Ford Mustang models have been a common sight at online collector car auctions for some time now, and there have been plenty of nice ones to bid on as of late – including a 535-mile 2007 Saleen S281, a 20k-mile 2007 GT, and a 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 with 37k miles on the clock. Now, we have yet another enticing S197 to add to that list – this 2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 convertible, which has a mere 500 miles showing on the odometer and is currently up for grabs at Cars & Bids.
This Shelby GT500 is completely unmodified as well, making it a pretty surefire collectible, even though most would probably prefer to simply drive and enjoy it. Regardless, that lack of use has it looking just as good as new, save for a couple of scratches marring its black paint. Otherwise, there’s a lot to like here, including the car’s optional GT500 Premier Trim Package, which pairs nicely with the Shelby’s unique styling features.
Inside the cabin, this range-topping pony car is equipped with black and red leather upholstery and a large array of amenities that include a power driver’s seat, the Shaker 500 audio system with a six-disc changer, and cruise control, which complement mechanical upgrades such as Brembo brakes, a specially-tuned suspension, and 18-inch alloy wheels.
Under the hood, this Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 is powered by the supercharged 5.4L V8 that was factory-rated to produce 500 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque, which flows to the rear wheels via a Tremec six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Ultimately, it’s difficult to say just what this GT500 will garner at auction, but we imagine that it will ultimately hammer for a solid amount, given its incredibly low mileage total.
We’ll have more cool auction finds like this to share soon, so be sure and subscribe to Ford Authority for more Mustang Shelby GT500 news, Ford Mustang news and around-the-clock Ford news coverage.
