2009 Shelby GT500 (My Dream Car)

[@spiker702]

Beautiful Shelby. 05-09 is by far the best looking modern Mustang in my opinion

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Preach!

[@stangmanshelby5330]

I have exact same car here but in a convertible. It was my dream car as well. Bought it brand new in 2009 in my mid 20’s. First dealership said you can’t afford / test drive this car. So I found another dealer / car and bought theirs. Still have it today after previously owning Shelby GT350 and Dodge Viper. Can’t part with it. My first love.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

I respect the hell out of that!! My wife said when I get one it HAS to be convertible!

[@anthonylaudano9435]

​@@farfromaverageautomotiveNOT JUST BECAUSE I HAVE A GT500 AND MY SUPER SNAKES LOL I THINK THE RETRO BODY STYLE IS THE BEST LOOKING MUSTANG EVER.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

[@Globe2274]

I have a 2007 GT500. I just spent over $2k on the Stage 3 update. Cold air intake, Pulley, Idler & tune...which adds approx. 50-60hp. Yours already has the stage 3. I can tell by the sound of the supercharger!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

I wish this was mine, one day!!

[@erichargrove6371]

I bought my 2014 White with Navy stripes GT500 a year ago. The car is a dream to drive and with currently only 6800 miles on it and like yours it's flawless. My car will be in the July anniversary edition of Stang Magazine. Your car looks awesome!!!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Hell yeah and I wish this was mine!

[@MrRanggong]

Thats awesome! Its my dream car too. White with the blue stripes. The supercharger whine is intoxicating. I'm excited for you.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Yeah have GREAT taste!

[@MrRanggong]

@@farfromaverageautomotive Hey man, update. Its no longer my dream car because I own one!! I found a nice 2007 with a later model supercharger and lots of go fast bolt ons. White with Blue stripes. The only color right? Thanks for keeping the dream alive.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

@@MrRanggong hey Man I LOVE THIS SO Much!!! Enjoy it!!!!

[@shelbygtrag5859]

I still love my 07 GT500 Shelby conv. after owning it for 12yrs! fast car for its time and still hangs with most cars no problem! Plus the looks and sounds are the best, especially with flow master outlaws on the back! Remains almost stock.Bought with 16 miles on it , now has 6,800 miles.Mine does 0-60 4,4 sec stock.SVT are shift lights on the dash and can be set for different shift points.Also thats a factory nav deck from ford.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That’s too cool!!!

[@ozarkpipertony8396]

About to buy my first GT500. 8k miles and is in really nice condition. Thanks for the video!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That awesome, thanks for watching!!

[@randymillsjr.1730]

I've had the same shelby sense 09. Got it used. 7k miles. Now 65k miles. Love it

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That’s so awesome!

[@artsohc]

Nice, I bought an 07 with the same color combo with 40k miles 2 months ago. I love it too.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Good choice!

[@callawaysc6065]

Good review! I love your enthusiasm! Looks like it has a Steeda powerpack which includes the cold air intake, smaller pulley and tune. It takes literally 30 minutes to change the pulley and intake to gain over 100 wheel horsepower. Amazing machines!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That’s wild!!!!! So cool!!! Thank you so much!!!!

[@anthonylaudano9435]

I HAVE 3 THOUSAND ORIGINAL MILES ON MY 08 GT500.

[@deadaccount-rip]

​@@anthonylaudano9435 That's not really a flex. If you're not driving it, it's useless.

[@anthonylaudano9435]

@@deadaccount-rip A FLEX LOL WHATS A FLEX

[@CG37372]

Maybe one day for me. U absolutely deserve this!!!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Thank you!!

[@AllCarsUnited]

It's the car I'll never sell.

[@Warboy757]

Definitely enjoyed the video. I’m currently looking at a few GT500 and one is this 2009 white. It’s a dream car and a future GT350.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That’s so cool! I love them so much!

[@anthonylaudano9435]

​@@farfromaverageautomotiveMAN I LAUGH AT THE GUY'S THAT SAY THERE NOT FAST IN STOCK FORM LOL A CAR THAT CAN RUN 12S AND ZERO TOO SIXTY IN THE 4 SECOND RANGE LOL THAT'S SLOW LOL ITS STILL A FAST CAR LOL TODAY PEOPLE ARE SPOILED WITH ALL THE HP THAT THE CARS MAKE TODAY LOL 500HP IS NO SLOUCH.

[@JorgeRodriguez-gc1or]

At one point, that was my favorite car (gt500) as a teenager, but then I drove a C6 z06, and everything changed .. now I own one 🇺🇲 h/c/I

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That’s sick man!

[@anthonylaudano9435]

​@farfromaverageautomotive I ALSO AGREE THAT THE 07 09 GT500 IS THE BEST LOOKING MODERN DAY MUSTANG.

[@anthonylaudano9435]

MY 08 GT500 HAS OVER 750HP AT THE TIRE SO AT THE CRANK IT'S WELL OVER 850HP AND HONESTLY THAT'S AS FAR AS I WANT TO PUSH IT AND MY TUNER SAID IT CAN HANDLE 850HP AT THE TIRE WITH THE PROPPER TUNE BUT 800HP AT THE TIRE IS FAR AS IAM WILLING TO PUSH THE STOCK 5.4.

[@Wooley689]

I know that feeling, happy for you man.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Thank you!!

[@JOSEDeleon-j2d]

Man I feel you I love my 09 gt500 won’t part with it to me it a blessing for me 😊

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Adda boy!

[@TrickShiftGarage]

Dude that's awesome! Definitely a car I would love to own one day for sure. I'm glad you had the chance to experience that brother!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Thank you! And me too!

[@garrettpage6976]

Man I’m pretty sure you and I share the exact same love for the Shelby. “It’s not just a Mustang, it’s THE Mustang” I’m down in Wichita Falls so hello distant neighbor 👋 I’ve owned two mustangs, an 2002 and a 2012 5.0L. I’m still waiting for my dream of owning a Shelby to come true as well 🙏 God bless you and beautiful car brother 😍🐍

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Yes sir!!! The dream!! I use to have a 08 mustang as you saw in video now I drive a Si but want a mustang again!

[@fury5502]

I can feel the excitement

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

All real emotions

[@RobertFry-l4y]

I love it too ! I have the exact same car that I bought new in 2009 !

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Dude that’s the dream!! Good for you!!!!

[@octane2099]

I got the same color combo 2007 with 37K miles going to daily drive it, its also very clean.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Hey good choice!!

[@lionsgarage]

Congrats and thanks for sharing. I want to ask. Is it 100% stock? The supercharger whine seems to be more noticable than like a 2013 and 2014 GT500?

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

I wish it’s mine one day!

[@Southsidecashh]

i love Shelby’s too man my dream car is the mach 1 s550. im close with the 2018 mustang gt but man i feel you and great review‼️🔥

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Thank you so much!!

[@Camj27]

Love the 07-09 gt500. Just wish they changed up the interior more from the standard mustang. A recaro seat option would have been nice.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

That’s. SUPER good point!

[@midnight347]

I agree but they changed it up alot more than you think when you compare them side by side lots of little touches that make it feel more special. They should have had a better seat option I'll give you that I threw in some gts2 corbeau seats into mine full leather they like they could have (and should have) came oem. It's so easy to make big power and tq you can do 600/600+ to the tire with stock blower and 700-800+ w a blower swap.

[@CutlassVibes]

Nice ride! Keep up the good work!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Thanks!!!

[@franw51]

100%.my dream. White and blue stripes..Hopefully in the next year or two while their still around 35-45k

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Haha me too!

[@Furrygumball71]

Hello I love your natural excitement for the Shelby. I’m wondering how has ownership been since you first bought it til recent ?

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

I did not buy this one just a review but my wife and I plan to get one soon we got a house this month and it was just not the time!

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

@@Furrygumball71 that’s amazing!

[@hecrod5429]

Man this is what dreams are made of pull the plug man you deserve its

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Haha I wish one day!

[@midnight347]

It whines alot stock but open it up w a freee flowing intake and smaller pulley tune it really screams. My 07 w 410 gears and simple bolt ons destroyed a bolt on 93 tune 10 speed 5.0 multiple times. These cars are faster than people realise tons of potential.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

I agree

[@midnight347]

The gauges are also totally different they have a more modern layout w the numbers and the tach and speedo are on opposite sides from the normal mustang of the day. The regular mustang could get the mycolor gauge color changing thing but only gt500s got the red white and blue option that was a gt500 specific thing. Lots of little things most miss.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

🫡

[@midnight347]

You should try it with a vmp gen3r at 19 psi w long tubes full exhaust 410 and drag pack then see how exhilirating it can be lol. My 07 put down 740/733 to the tire on fat power sucking drag radials. Its a monster.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

It’s not mine lol but one day!

[@Mark-ny5rf]

2008 in torch red with white stripes is mine. Sorry dude, but cleaning the exterior prior to filming would give you much more bravado.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

We did not own it it was a car dealerships this is what we gave us to work with so we made it work!

[@BulletCobra2205]

Umm.. 5th Generation Mustangs didn’t end til 2014. A lot of people get confused with this. The Wiki even says that 5th Gen was from 2005-2014. Drives me nuts

[@BulletCobra2205]

But congratulations on being able to own your dream car! 👏🏼

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

@@BulletCobra2205 haha I wish just reviewed it one day though!!

[@anthonylaudano9435]

​@farfromaverageautomotive OBVIOUSLY I LOVE MY 2 SUPER SNAKES BUT A CLOSE SECOND IS MY 08 GT500 THAT HAS 850HP AND SIGNED BY SHELBY TWICE AND THE TASCA FAMILY AND BEING BOB TASCA SR GT500 MAKES IT VERY SPECIAL TO COLLECTORS BUT I WILL NEVER SELL IT.

[@midnight347]

The enrire front end is different. It looks like 13-14 front end shape meets 05-09 body. The 13s actually copied the gt500 look that went all the way back to 2007. Even the headlight housing is shelby specific they are shaped differently because of the front end difference.

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Good to know thanks!

[@68orangecrate26]

But, do you like the car?

[@farfromaverageautomotive]

Idk it’s hard to say…
