2020 Shelby Super Snake Review // 800 Horsepower GT500 Killer

This is the Shelby Super Snake. Crafted from a Mustang GT, Shelby American have modded it into a beast like no other. With the help of a Whipple Supercharger, it makes 800hp ...and a ton of noise. James and Thomas jump behind the wheel to see if it delivers on its extra cost. Because at $170,000 CAD, it's got some stiff competition. Watch and enjoy. SUBSCRIBE!

I think I get it now. I was always confused on the Shelby Super Snake, the GT500, and the GT500 Super Snake. I thought they were all the same thing. Correct me if I'm wrong. The SSS is a regular Mustang GT sent off to Shelby which isn't "Ford Factory". The GT500 is stock from the factory. And the GT500 Super Snake is factory but sent off to Shelby to make it even faster.

[@ladybrisen777]

When I was 16... My 1st car was a 65 Mustang .. 289 small block..For my bd my stepfather had it painted for me.. I wanted it whiter than white... So it was painted what they called double O corvette white... The sun when it was rolled out of the bay.. it was soo bright you couldn't look at it w/o sunglasses.. Then we had the interior redone. Dark charcoal gray with a black dash and carpet.. We also changed the steering wheel to a much smaller black model. The tires.. I can't remember the size exactly but they were BF Goodrich radial T/A's white lettering facing out.. I loved that look.. The back was larger than the front... The rims were Cragar SST's beautiful shiny chrome.. I kept them looking like glass.. I personally did not want the emblems at the time.. I wanted a smooth look.. SO we removed the 289 and the horse off of the side and the front. Replaced the bumpers of course replaced the gas cap with a gorgeous chrome one with the mustang logo which ppl were always trying to steal. Lastly the engine.. He changed out the carburator.. to a holly 4 barrel 650 double pumper. Erson oversized cam and an Edelbrock aluminum intake bored 40 over. He also removed the points and replaced the ignition with a Mallory electronic ignition. So I got to push a button to start my car lol .. That sound.. I didn't play with dolls as a little girl.. I played with hot wheels.. I also had a 93 Camaro with the LT 1 Vette engine... but that is for another day.. I miss that car.... I knew what I had.. I thought... Now I could kick my ass for getting rid of it.. I had her for 5 yrs.. She required a lot of maintenance.. At 16 I had a car that most grown men would love to have... NOW I want a 2020 Mustang. I rented one for a weekend.. ended up keeping it for 3 weeks loL.. I absolutely fell in love with it.. I love the low to the ground body style and the front spoilers...

Hell yes!!! Pure epicness with the HP intro. Great review but not worth the price at all in my opinion.

[@kennybeans6115]

Exactly. A 200% markup just for mods is ridiculous for any car, let alone a Mustang. Imagine buying a Corvette Stingray for $60k, then dumping another $120k (i.e., *two* more Corvettes) into it just to have *one* ZR1-caliber Corvette. And just like a ZR1, a Dodge Viper ACR or GTS will not only give you essentially the same performance, but it’ll let you pocket $50k on top of this Mustang too. Or hell, go nuts and buy a used European exotic. You can get a proper, well-kept Lamborghini Mercy or Ferrari 458 reasonably close to that neighborhood. I’m confident you’ll have way more fun in one of those than a juiced-up Mustang. Personally, I’d go with a C-7 ZR1 and nearly $50k in my pocket. A stock ZR1 would handle this Shelby SS all day.

[@michaelhill6627]

This is an amazing car and to be honest the price tag is justified by the insane amount of labor involved to make it. Could you find a faster car for cheaper sure but like most actual shelby's in time it will be worth WAY more than you paid for it

No this is a waste for the money. A RTR spec 3 is a legitimately a better car for 23k above base price. Even with a fully speced gt, the price would be 85k max. Any aftermarket company will loose value, even the Shelby. If you didn't further modify either, I'd say they'd stay about the same value over time.

[@blackeye3336]

RTR spec is not even close to as tested as the super snake is dar riskier than this car great car nonetheless but no whear near the engineering this car has the open big size it has the look isint even close and I don't think it's a manual on top of that pretty sure it don't have 830 hp
