Yeah he forgot about torque and a real stick trans. Different strokes. Turbo coyote may win at the track but the Shelby feels better on the street

I'll admit my gt500 was a BLAST on the street and i do miss rowing gears from time to time. I will likely have another GT500 some day.... any year (07-14--they all have their qualities).
However.. this s550 is far and away my favorite mustang Ive owned to date. It has just the right amount of refinement... love the interior (base seats are awesome!)... full connectivity, great ride quality, light-feeling tossability (compared to gt500), no clutch chatter, no 2nd gear lock out, no gear whine, quiet exhaust note, literal stock-like drivability, and maybe most important--The ability to drive to the track and runs 9s exactly as you left the house. No swapping rims/tires, no adjusting drag shocks, no swapping belts before drag day to "make sure i dont have belt slip", no adding boostane or octanium or race gas at the track. None of that.
This thing checks all the boxes!
Welcome to turbo life.

I'd love to take a ride in a car like that, but I can't say I know a single person with a shelby of that caliber. I don't even know anyone with a stock one LOL.
How are they so different? Just different powerband feel?
Yes the power delivery is completely different in my opinion coyotes are definitely fast but they lack that initial bury you in your seat feel , the Shelby will feel like it is trying to toss you into the back seat for a street car the Shelby has more to offer

The Shelby has stump pulling torque. from 2000- to redline its giving you everything it has and its like trying to ride a bull. The coyote I had was about 800-ish to the wheels, and was much tamer than the Shelby. Definitely faster but not as fun to try to hang on if that makes sense? Also with the GT500 I wasn't really worried about the driveline breaking like I was on my coyote. TR6060, CF Driveshaft and Solid axle are pretty strong!
Atleast the GT500 motor has good bore liners in it #ThankuNext

#ThankuNextInteresting comments on the GT500 vs Coyote comparison. I have both, and don't fully agree... at least when comparing the GT500 to a built 6R80.
you have to be dedicated, but swapping a 6R80 into a GT500 isnt that difficult these days. Just need a large bank account lol.
Definitely is quite the car, just checked out the ad. But for the price, I would probably go with stangmans car which is also for sale. Makes more sense given what I want.
