How could anyone who loves cars hear this thing and think "I can't wait for electric cars"
Exactly
Sorry but we can't make our grandkids relocate to higher ground just to please your ears. Enjoy it while it lasts
@@davidp2707 up your shaft with that shit.
They obviously don't get the same pleasure and excitement from a nice engine that we get, I love the mechanical side of cars, never happier than when im doing a bit of spannering lol, an electric motor is not very interesting mechanically, so half of my pleasure in owning a car would be taken away with an ev
@@Markcain268 How far the technology has came has been really interesting to see, but an EV will never give me goosebumps like the exhaust note of a downshift. IMO sound is one of the best things about cars
now that was impressive....love the old school, rapid acceleration, big delay when changing gear, then off it goes again. Looks great fun.
It'd not old school lmao and any manual does that
"Old school" bro it's a 2007 not 67
@@Mach_bro eeeh. If you are good driver and got a short throw you can shift pretty fucking fast. Many many times faster then he did in this video.
@@Mach_bro its pretty old school compared to what manuals bring nowadays
@@Eric-Wall the transmission in this car is difficult to shift quickly without some heavy modifications
8:39 F to our fallen brother
Perhaps check the clutch fluid, could be your clutch isnt fully disengaging and the synchros are having a hard time with it. From a ford forum*
It also could be just a really stiff race clutch
I've got one, on my second clutch. Throw out bearing is always an issue. McLeod clutch upgrade solves everything I'm told.
Trans is solid motors is solid.. but the connection was a engineering bandaid to pair them. There are a few after market fixes. Most enthusiasts just upgrade the transmission. Strong after market for these, it's actually not a huge cost. Put the tremec on a shelf for the inevitable resto in 20 years when everything is electric and these have huge collector value
You have to manhandle a Tremec, which is fun, but it shouldn't be that tough. Same for the clutch on these. I would suspect the clutch has an issue. It's a muscle car, so the clutch is the first thing to take a beating.
I have one of these and the factory clutch and shifter are both notoriously bad. Swap them out with a MGW Shifter and McLeod RXT clutch and you're in heaven.
I have 08 gt with 5speed tremec. Trans rebuild with new sycrnos fixed the issue where I could not get into the next gear over 4500rpm.
@@PJthePlayer I Have a 07 GT500. Stock shifter and clutch (14K mile original owner). I know for a fact I can do what he is doing with zero issues. But you already know the car being driven isnt stock.
@@wildosvt Well considering the factory clutch typically fails around the 20k mark you're probably in for a world of fun shortly. Mine was fine at 14k miles as well. Once I hit 20k the factory clutch was a goner. There's a reason that there's an official Ford TSB concerning that clutch.
Analog instruments, manual gear, hand brakes. TAKE ME BACK TO 2007
I fell in love with this car for the first time when I was 11 years old. Since then I've had a love for Mustangs too. Right now my dream car s197 Ford Mustang super snake
Same! These vehicles need to remain a big tradition
Eleanor ( which they hand build in Usa ) must be a special experience as
well . U can choose from 550 and 750 HP
Same haha very specific love for them
11:31 man was so casual about it
Finally Max you have learnt to rev-match while downshifting, this makes for more satisfying content :)
Wait, was he really downshifting by just slowly releasing the clutch before?
I was able to rev match like properly and consistently without having to look after about a month of driving, not heel toe, but basic rev matching. That’s crazy 😂
@@slowspecv69 Lolwat, he was?
@@slowspecv69 Yes he was, look at his earlier videos.
Isn’t there a button to rev match?
The best generation mustang for me
One of the last true "super" pony cars. Raw, unadulterated V8 power, minimal safety/ electronic nannies, six speed manual trans, live axle, it hardly gets more brutal.
💯👍🏻
I have a 2006 Mustang GT with 375hp and even that is just brutal. I swear, the last of the "brutal" muscle cars was probably around 2009.
try the 13-14 gt500s... 662hp
@@scrmndmn1 see original comment for clarification of reasoning.
Have a look at my Holden Hsv please
I had the pleasure of owning a 2012 gt500 with Performance pack for 4 years. The shifts were always a bit hard to execute. But this one appears harder, probably is the synchro's. Also a pulley and tune wake these cars up.
He's also saying the clutch is hard, and the shifting problem is in multiple gears. I think the fluid might be low, or some other issue with the clutch, which means the clutch isn't fully releasing.
@@donlorenzo5718 u are probably right on each issue
yeah mine isnt anything like this
I found mine to have small clutch plates. With a twin disc clutch, intake, exhaust, pulley, and a tune my car is an absolute monster now. It grabs every gear every time
I have the same white with blue stripes 2007 with that JLT cold
Air and a tune. It’s 508hp to the rear tires so about 575 to the engine. With a smaller pulley added to the supercharger (2.5in) and tune you can get 550 to the wheels and about 630hp to the engine. Fun cars!
There is no other performance car in the world that sounds like a mustang. It may not be the fastest but it is one of the most iconic and recognizable cars in the world.
I have one of these for a daily driver but I upgraded mine with a 2.6 supercharger pulley, MGW shifter, McLeod RXT clutch and flywheel and Flowmaster Outlaws. She makes about 650HP at the crank and is an absolute joy to drive. I cannot overstate how much of an improvement the MGW/McLeod shifter and clutch combo is over the factory parts. I also disagree with the reviewer and think that this is absolutely the best looking modern Shelby car. It's an absolute monster and feels like a wild animal when you drive it like you're meant to. It definitely has a personality of its own.
did anyone ask for your opinion you dodi
@@stilllmkp Calm down bro
@@stilllmkp Why do you exist shut up
@@stilllmkp it doesn’t seem like anyone asked for yours either. At the very least be consistent with what you preach.
410 gears would be so much fun with that setup
I love how you show the audience what it really means to drive these vehicles. I loooooove my American muscle cars!
The real value of this car is in the quality of endurance and cheap full replacement of parts, but only when you really like it.
Daily driving performance.
Old cars like this have a thing you don't find nowadays
When you drive them, you feel quite like they're alive
What an absolute beast 🙂 those days... ❤️
The European spec gt500 is limited to 155 mph, US spec can do 180 mph! The car sounds amazing!
I work for Porsche and get to drive all sorts of stuff, and nothing make me smile more than my 300hp ‘07 GT. Mines got some work done too it of course, hoping for a supercharger in the future, but even down on power its still sideways and growling and making everybody laugh.
The way this thing's front lifts up as you accelerate is such a pleasure to watch...
The noise through the tunnel was ferocious!!! Nice video Max!
Cheers 🍻 👍
I drove a 500 from this generation I agree it is quite an experience. I equate it to the feeling one might get skydiving for the first time, solo, and knowing you packed your own chute before you took off. Nervous and exciting all wrapped into one experience.
As others have stated, especially the 2007s have issues with the clutch/shifter. Having to push it in like that is making the synchros work very hard to mesh the gears. The owne r needs to address the issue instead “muscling it in” or he’s heading for a transmission rebuild sooner than he’d like. My car already had some 2nd gear grinding/catching when cold from this exact issue when I got it. The fix for my car was a McLeod rxt, mgw gen2, new throw out bearing/slave, and a blowfish racing mount to really make it part of the trans (that really finished it off) making the shifts feel better than any other car I’ve driven with how direct it feels.
Freaking awesome! I’m listening to this at work, Ford Truck Plant. Thanks for taking us along.
Amazing now this is a car. Old school and raw.
I love V8 motors, have been daily driving US made cars for the last 15 years in Finland. Sometimes when filling up at the gas station I get annoyed at the prizes (regular 1,7€ / liter (about 7-8$ per gallon)) but then when I drive and feel the effortless power and sound non of them high fuel prizes matter.
Damn, gas is only about $2.80 per gallon where I am in the States lol.
@@Tattle-by-Tale I would be sooo happy if it was that price here! But the damn social democrats and green party does only want it to get even higher...
@@Tattle-by-Tale that finnish guy is paying $10 or $12 a gallon now, thanks putin :(
Yeah sure its putins fault not the governments who refuse taking gas from Russia.
@@williammccormick1092 It is. Putin is taking the money from the sale of gas and using it to murder civilians in his invasion of Ukraine. There are many governments who can't support that.
Great combination of brute mechanical masterpiece, v8 supercharged engine and manual gearbox, must be a pleasure
Thank you for this! I own a 2007 GT500 as well, but have nowhere that I can drive it like THAT. Fun to experience it through you.
The way it gathers speed is amazing, with the noise as well!
Awesome sound, don't always get to hear clean audio of this thing but wow, really really nice!!
Best channel best content tnx for making the moment awesome as always
ONE OF MY FAVORITE CARS EVER
The S197 chassis Mustang GT/GT500 is my absolute dream car no it’s not a Ferrari or Lamborghini it’s an old Ford that is affordable but the feel it gives you when you hoon it around is very special you feel like you’re one with the car and you’re on a mission , I always liked the retro styling and can’t understand why Max didn’t like them at first but man these cars are 🤩🤩🤩🤤🤤🤤
I'm in love with that car. That's all my heart can say about that beast.
You had a ball Max, - great car, great review, thanks!
Old mustang is so cool and top end fast
Man what a car honestly. I would take this brand new over any new car from the price range of todays cars all day everyday. This Shelby is just lovelly.
I've owned my 08 GT500 for 7 years (same color scheme) and learning to 1>2 shift is something you have to learn. Not sure why this car has issues in all gears. Once you do learn , you canThe factory clutch WILL go out due to a defect, and I have a 2014 GT500 clutch and slave, which fixed most of your complaints. I also have 3.55 gears, which makes it accelerate even faster (not to mention the 538RWHP I dynoed with my latest mods).
Of the 70+ cars and motorcycles I've owned over the years, it is BY FAR my favorite. I only plan to sell it when I am ready to buy the new GT500.
11:29 And that's the end of the speedo..
11:32 And that's the end of the speedo cam 😂
That Traction control Flashing on the left tho 💪💯
Oh my that thing is so quick, love the agricultural nature of it you have to drive it 😍
Remember sum kid we used to Cruise with had one of these. That bad boy was a monster.
Rippin' through the countryside....love it!
Beautiful videos just keep going. Can you do next time Golf Mk2
I had a smile on my face throughout this video...
"That's the end of the speedometer and that's the end of the speedo camera"....Thats the point I'm waiting for 😂😂 and I've to re-watch on speaker to annoy some guys 😂😂
Definitely an experience owning one of these cars worth every penny 😎
hele leuke video, blijf zo doorgaan! Vele groetjes uit belgië!
i put a hurst comp short throw in my car after having that same “elasticity” feeling when shifting at higher rpms with the lockout. fixed the problem 100%
really has a sound of raging beast.. best sound.. and big power car.. it can be felt from the video, and thats not case with other cars.. didn't knew this ford mustangs are this kind of cars.. almost wasn't gonna click on video, and what a surprise..
I have the same shift knob from american muscle just mine is black with the 5 speed diagram on top, went to unscrew it to put a new shift boot on and the threads started backing out of the shift knob so I tightened it back up and am now investing in a higher quality shift knob, not surprised you broke that one
i think you are a mustang guy. you got like at least 4 videos with mustangs. Love it!!
Loved that video
5:45 That’s normal, just have to mess with the screw cap below the shift knob to align it properly
It's called posatrack rear end. Both rear wheels are geared and power is equally distributed giving you more torque
Thank you for understanding the point of these cars. They’re weren’t the sophisticated or complex, but sophisticated and complex likely weren’t considered when Ford was developing this car.
The point of this car is to give off charisma above all else, and be an achievable dream for nearly every American. When the plumber or lineman is done for the day and drives his GT500 home, he doesn’t care that it has a live rear axle, or if the transmission is notch-y, or the clutch is heavy. He cares that A: it was affordable. B: it sounds darn good. C: he can overtake anyone on the back country two lane highways without having to give it a second thought on his way home.
Great video! It's probably the clutch. My cobra used to do the same thing and then when I went to a twin disk I can shift as fast as I want and doesn't hit the "wall" anymore
This is gonna be one of the big ones !
One of my fave reviews. The reason it goes above top speed limiter is the guy must have an engine tune on it judging from the cold air intake....
That sound was intoxicating. The Fiesta Flash 🤙🏼🍺🍺
Saw a '07 GT500 identical to the one from this video. They're really quiet cars, they don't emit noise at all unlike post '14 Camaros.
My uncle has a 1200whp one of these, fucking insane. Such a beautiful design for the exterior too
Never gets old
It's beautiful!
I prefer the facelift, the 2014 model year. This older one already looks kinda dated.
Awesome car and sound 🤓
I put a McLoud Rst and a shifter in mine, and it made shifting a lot smoother. Not perfect but better
This car is heaven. 😍
Sounds like the throwout bearing is gone and needs the clutch assembly to be replaced. A good time to add a lightened flywheel for better revs as well!
I love the ford Shelby gt since I was little
excellent video ♥ ️👍
After driving a lot of manual mustangs including Shelby I’ve noticed in general a stiff clutch, but if it’s abnormally difficult could be an issue with the clutch
The super charger like 😍😍
This shelby is nice I love the wheels I love the color and i like the strappings on it too
Yes!!!! Finally!!!
Hey, @autotopNL please do an review on an 2012,13 gt 500 ❤️
My old love memories just became
welcome to the whipple life Max!
Maybe you should recommend they change engine mounts. Same issue happens with MX5 NC's when they wear
This is reminiscent of the scenes in I Am Legend, sounded so powerful in the movie
i love this car man!!!!
i have the same year model and when i had my clutch replaced last instead of putting a twin disk clutch in they put a single disk and it got difficult to shift. when i got a twin disk put in it went back to shifting smooth and easy.
Want to sale it??
Sounds soooooo good...
Can I ask ? Does this happen at high RPM this could be clutch disc related. you said the clutch is hard because
I didnt expect it to be that fast. Sounds rowdy ASF.
Thanks for reviewing this amazing Mustang 🇺🇸🤘🏻
@charlie ryan what's up bro, i live in turkey, how much is the gt 500 where you are? I will be glad if you answer
@@ahmetmete8325 hello 👋🏻 I bought a 2008 with 2500 miles on it back in 2009 for 38K . I Traded it in for a 98 Doge Viper for 30k in 2015
@@charlieryan1736 thanks bro good bye
The factory clutch likes to go out on the 2007 specifically. That could result in hard shifting.
I love how he starts off sounding like "ho hum another car review" and by the end he has a raging woody and wants to own a GT500! American Muscle Baby!
Thanks Steyer for the gearbox
My favourite colour love it! 🙂 I want the Ford Mustang Cobra 2 GT500 thank you!
I have that exact same car with 850 hp. There is something off with this particular car’s transmission. Probably the clutch. I have absolutely no problem shifting at wot.
Das ist ein monster 👍😎💪
I knew it wasn't just me when I thought the shifting in these sucks but I do love the look and sound. This guy really pushed that baby!
I have a 5.0 foxbody and it goes 0 to 100 fast enough but from 100-120 it takes years 😂
Love the sound!
my dad has an 07 gt500 and the stock clutch is a dream, and its not correct that you're having to jam it into gear... many others have pointed out it may be the synchro's or the clutch fluid, and I recommend you tell the owner about that. One thing it could be is a broken engine mount so the engine and trans is binding so you cant shift under load. seen it happen on an 06 Viper.
I gave mine a short shifter, a Mcleod racing clutch and the shifts just slide in as if they know where to go themselves.......simple upgrades like supercharger pulley , racing tune, JLT big air intake, bigger injectors, drag springs, long tube headers, fast flow cat x pipe, lower control arms and now pushing over 600+hp with much better road grip. With a supercharger upgrade these will get up to 800hp with no internal changes, and over 1000 with.
Majestic
I'm not really a car person but my dad used to own one of these. He even drove it to Vegas to get it signed by Shelby himself during some event, want to say in like 07 or 08? He sold it some time ago.
I Have one of these shifters on my Challenger. You need to use blue Lock-tite on them.
Mine was an 08 with a VMP gen 1. 2.3 TVS. long tubes and 3.73 gears. My wife hated it lol
