The platform under the Shelby was that of a Mustang Mach 1. Ride and comfort were prioritized over handling, but the Shelby is still sporty and has better weight distribution than a Mach 1 (57/43 vs 59/41). Power brakes were standard, with 11.3-inch vented discs up front and 10 x 2-inch drums in the rear.
Ford Mustang vs. Chevrolet Camaro: Performance. The entry-level Mustang’s turbocharged, 2.3L four-cylinder eclipses the base Camaro’s turbo 2.0L in horsepower, at 310hp compared to 275hp. Opt for the Stang’s 2.3L High Performance package and power jumps to 330 hp, just five ponies shy of what the Camaro 1LT’s optional 3.6L V6 makes. When someone sees the "Shebly" on the trunk, the snake on the side/trunk/grill, or the GT500 on it, they may not know everything about the car, but they always double take and stare. Nobody double takes a GT unless its got some serious money dumped into it. '07-'12 GT500 is a 5.4l and the '13/'14 is a 5.8l. QVgYDaT.
