What’s crazy is they are only doing 30 of these and 29 of the 30 are sold already. My guess is that last spot is already sold by this point so whether it’s worth it or not they got what they wanted out of it
I like it. But obviously it's not for everyone. I think what people are forgetting is that especially now, when you pay for a name, so that definitely could play a part in the price point. But it's more than just power. I can't tell you how many ppl I've seen tune their cars for power without adding suspension that can handle the load. Shelby did things the smart way and tuned the car for power with suspension that can handle the load. If you think you could do it yourself and have it handle the same or better for less money, I'd love to see it. I do think the price range is odd considering the values of Carrol Shelby, and the "affordable" mission of the Mustang, but that's the world we live in now. It wouldn't stop me from buying it if I had the chance
@@chris9576 Literally none of them. I don't agree with a 300k mustang but just because it's a Porsche or Ferrari doesn't mean it automatically gets a higher price point. European cars actually suck compared to American cars.
so hear me out, just buy a regular 5.0 and the highest end version of the hellion sleeper kit and you’ll be pretty close to that 1300chp for far less money. granted, you’ll want to be upgrading your suspension, driveshaft, clutch, fuel injectors, intake, exhaust, and tires to start with. but, you’ll still be well under their $300k price tag
It’s not worth it! I have a Shelby track pack pushing 830hp and that’s plenty! The overall car is not worth that much money even for the power upgrade. You can get a 2023 911 GT3 RS for 230k…. and it’s street legal!
Part of what you are buying is the rare build from Shelby American - of course you can build it yourself for cheaper. But customers for this don't want that - they want a factory Shelby with special status and lots of extra performance. This delivers that. If I was super rich - I'd probably do it just because I am such a huge Mustang and Shelby fan. And *that* is the target audience - Mustang crazy people with TONS of $$. And I bet they all EASILY sell..
@@biz0r07 That's basically the point, everyone complaining about the price is literally proving that, this isn't for them so they shouldn't care, they already have the more cheaper options that can easily reach the power for less, but their value will drop considerably after time, while this Code Red will sky rocket in value so even if you pay 300k now, you make that money back easily in 2 years of ownership just like the Ford GT
there are only 30 of them built and multimillionaires are the people that want these cars. The will go to Saudi, Egypt, Germany or who ever the highest bidder is. It wasn't made for you. cheers.
I doubt we'll ever see a race between a CR Mustang and some of Dodges monsters. People who buy this will just keep it in their garage as a collectors car. I wanna see Ford do something crazy like this.
300K is just for the exclusivity of the Shelby badge because if you want a Mustang that rocks performance wise why can’t I buy a base 10R80 GT go to fat house tell them twin turbo it and motec it put a suspension on it and even build the engine and trans for a 1/3 of the price and I reckon it will be just as quick.
I'm sure it's fast but way overpriced, you could have a C8 Z06 and a GT500 both instead. 1000hp on 93? I can't believe how much better the redeye/demon engine is than the predator especially mod wise. A pulley and a tune on a redeye is all that's needed for 1000hp on 93 with that platform. I'd just pulley swap a GT500 and call it good and save 200k
@@vettesweetnos I think what they are leaving out here is that this car runs that RELIABLY I bet this car runs at low boost with this turbo set up and can easily put out way more but it's coming from Shelby they don't want to make a total death trap and they still have warranties to fulfill
Everyone was saying the same thing about the Lexus LFA $370,000 it's too overpriced compared to the Corvette at the time and now look at the price of the LFA $500,000+ The nurburgring edition LFA is $1.5 million. Crazy!!!!
What something is “worth” is a very relative question. For very wealthy people spending $300k is similar to someone making $50k a year buying a used go kart or taking the family on a small vacation.
I laugh when people say “$300,000 for a ford…” let’s get one thing straight. Ford performance and Shelbey American have NOTHING in common when it comes to what’s under the hood. I own a 2019 super snake. It has 856hp on the whipple super charger. Half the people talking in these comments have NEVER driven a car even close to what a shelbey American car is made to do. Shelbey build the ONLY American motor to ever win 24 hours at lamans not once but 3 years in a row. Don’t forget he was beating every other super car in the world including FERRARI in those races. It is worth it to me hands down. Idc what it’s used for. My car tops out at 212 mph and that’s at 856hp. You’re taking 1300 and 1000 torque. Idc if it is a gt500 and is $300,000. Any car that will be able to compete with a car of that capacity is over $500,000-1 million. Your zo6 is a kids toy compared to anything Shelbey makes don’t even put them in the same sentence. When you drive a Shelbey it’s a 1 of 1. You don’t need 3. You don’t want a lambo. You want the legacy. The power. The sound from borla. You want the feel of how it handles. Every single time I get in my car it makes me giggle like a kid at how incredible powerful it is. You almost double that in the code red… it’s worth every penny
I’m 1 of the 30 people 🤷🏻♂️ I’ve been waiting for about a year now. They finally emailed me last week and confirmed they are ready to start my code red build. My GT500 is being sent Wednesday next week 😁 Yea I’m not happy about all the money I’m spending but it is what it is. I wanted one and I’m willing to pay the price to have one. Can’t wait to see it when it comes back all done
If I had the extra money I would get 1 myself, I can't blame you. People forget that things are only valued as what people are willing to give for something. Hope you're car turned out to be everything you wanted.
You’re 100% right. I’m still waiting on Shelby American to finish my Code Red but I’m sure I’ll love it !! I’ll be posting it on my channel when it arrives 💪🏽
They re sale all your take off parts on 2nd market or send back to Ford for reimbursement deal. They are oem parts in perfect condition. Your buying a collector car and a line in a registry book to put your name at only 30 units being made. 330k you could build a 2000+hp mustang.
It's it's good to see that Shelby hasn't lost their edge now all that's left to see is for them to build modern days 427 Cobra and Daytona cobras please 🙏🏿 🙏🏿🙏🏿👍🏿 just imagine buying a body frame like the MX5 and reconfiguring the body into a modern-day cobra 🐍😨😰😱😜
Base models are more like 87-97k and carbon fiber models are more like 105-135k depending on the City you buy it in. I would just send it to Shelby for the wide body package then I would have my people do a custom paint job which will be way better than a factory paint job and I would just have the engine forged and would swap the supercharger for a Whipple 3.8 liter and I would not max it out I would run it at 1000 crank 850ish whp which pump 93 and would do a flex fuel system where it eoukd make roughly 80-100 hp more on E-85. Do sone red accents and Katzkin leather seats upgrade. This would cost under $90k so out the door eoukd be $200k with the car.
If I’m throwing money away, it’s not going to be on something I can’t drive on the roads. That being said, I’m not sure how they would get me off the track! Way better than the Mustang minivan!
I don’t understand some of the performance cars design. They focus on increasing HP to 700-800 but with rear wheee drive what is the use in having so much power. I had a c7 zo6 , it was so powerful but without traction there is no difference between 500HP to 800 HP. Rather than focusing on increasing HP , why don’t they provide AWD. That way car can give consistent performance and all HP will become usable
Personally don’t feel this Shelby is worth the price. Especially if Shelby American isn’t baking up what add on with a Warranty. I like the added power but it isn’t worth the price. If you Follow Stangmode channel there was a fan that upgraded his track pack GT500 with twin turbos and price wasn’t mentioned I don’t think. But I believe twin turbocharging a GT500 could be cheaper without going through Shelby.
Speed Phenom Great Video I think it's absolutey insane that the All New Shelby GT500 Code Red costs 210k over the price of the Price of a Shelby GT500 and I think it's absolutey insane that they take all of the Stock parts and void the warranty and make illegal to drive on the road
for a $325k or little less i can get the AMG GT Black Series. and for the half of the price or little more i can get the regular AMG GT and it's far better than GT500 in everything specially build quality. so this demanded 300k is NOT WORTH IT AT ALL
When we think about a Mustang for 300k, it sounds insane, but when we think about a 1300hp car that comes with a warranty (I think), it seems worth it.
I could do everything on that car for less than half of what they're asking except for the wide body part That's the only part that couldn't be done for less than half
@@MrAllDay2u Understandable but his company was not about just making a killing off cars, now it is. And the cars are terribly overpriced I know he's rolling in his grave watching his company just like Steve Jobs with Apple
Watch his older interviews, Carroll said for a while the mustangs were soo good that Ford sent them there, they slapped the Shelby logo, sent it back to Ford and they marked it up a bunch
I agree. A nice GT500 track pack do a pulley swap and ok if you want to put the power down better hit up fathouse for a motec system which I hear can be done on supercharged stangs now.
Is it worth $300,000.00? Considering it is a Mustang, NO. I think I'd take my Shelby GT500, if I had one, to Palm Beach Dyno, reputable company, and have them install there x900s package, which includes all parts and installation for $12,700.00. The car produces 1010-1030hp at the crank after the upgrades and is still street legal. Then I'll take my old supercharger and see what I can sell it for. It is not the first time Ford has attempted to make an outrageous profit on a non-street legal track car, they asked $1,200,000.00 for the Ford GT MK2 Track Only. How would the track only version be worth that much more than the road going street legal Ford GT, who knows? ? ?
Let's see. $320,000 for a 1300 hp on e85/1000 hp on pump gas and not street legal. Not a chance in hell I would pay that much money for that car when I can pay $26,000 for the wide body kit installed at Shelby then send it to Fathouse Fabrications and for $20,000 more get 1000 whp and can drive it on the street
if I was a millionaire sure I'd buy it just for the sake of collecting it but as a gearhead I would rather go out and buy a C5-C6 Vette and modify the tits out of it seeing as they're a cheap platform to invest in and the 6.0L is a god damn monster engine as well
Man it’s easy … buy a standard GT … get the engine taken out … buy a cobra jet engine 1000 hp from Ford performance … car cost 45,000 …engine 35,000 … bolt it all together and you have a monster from Ford performance with warranty for the engine ……80,000 and you drop wheelies every gear 😂
It would be best if a couple of buddies could come together and buy this car and just share it LOL but then for a couple of buddies that's still a lot of money 💸💸💸😳
This rare care is to be compared with the Hope Diamond; destined to become a part of a "TrailerQueen" car collection, only to be viewed on very special and specific occasions!! These cars will only be driven enough to accumulate 10 miles per year and always garage kept.
No its not. Now you kinda start to notice manufacturers getting greedy. They’re putting out cars we already have just with more upgrades and options for double the price. Not worth it just buy a gt500 and modify to how u like it.
I guessed it would be a $160 upgrade in your last video and I believe I was the highest. Most guesses were around $60k Prices have gotten beyond goofy. 👎
And I'll add it's a nice looking and nice speced car but horribly over priced. The person that buys these will own leer jets and buy them just because they can spend ridiculous amounts of money just to show them off to their rich buddies. 🤦
Personally myself if I had that type of money I definitely would get it I would take American muscle car over exotic car any day, 1300 hp with a full warranty there is nothing about this car that needs to be touch besides the wing !!!!🔥😎
@@FordKillinFiatandShitvydaily definitely come with a full warranty if you buying the whole car from Shelby, but if you only upgrading your gt500. To a code red their no warranty
I’d say it’s insane pricing and it still has the crapy mustang interior the base C8 has a nicer interior if it’s a drag strip car get the 7 second challenger.
Cool build but way overpriced for a non warranted car and keeping all my parts. It’s a hard pass. You can do a gt350 and boost it beyond that for half the money.
If you're vast majority of ppl, the answer is no. But making 30-50 or so units, it isn't for the masses. If you ask who it is marketed to...the top 5-10%, they will say "yes". Case in point, they aren't marketing to those that would say "No" 🤔🙌
No late model mustang is worth that much. just like the super snake. All you're paying for is a name plate. You can take a regular GT500 and easily get this performance for a 3rd of the price. I'd like to know what kind of crack are they smoking over at Shelby.
I think it’s worth it for the well off, who are pretty much in the market for a unique and papered toy. As for the average guy, (especially a tech who can wrench and tune) they can pretty much get the same numbers, and reliability for a fraction. My unprofessional $0.02
Making a reliable 1300 hp is EXTREMELY difficult. I'm not saying this car is a good buy at that price, and while I think you COULD make 1300 hp for far less, it wouldn't be reliable, handle as good, look as good, etc
$300k, voids the warranty, not road legal. Plus Shelby gets to keep your old parts? Sounds like a good old fashioned train robbery to me.
That Porsche GT3 is sounding pretty good when it put it that way!

They are killing Caroll Shelby's legacy driving up prices and now their doing Twin Turbo setups he would never
Actually, Caroll Shelby personally had (2) 1966 427 Shelby Cobra SC with twin Paxton super chargers made.
And he called them "Super Snakes".
@@MrAllDay2u Understandable but his company was not about just making a killing off cars, now it is. And the cars are terribly overpriced I know he's rolling in his grave watching his company just like Steve Jobs with Apple
@@Christophertruck actually there doing that thing where they looking ahead this thing with it being in the registry will be worth millions.
Watch his older interviews, Carroll said for a while the mustangs were soo good that Ford sent them there, they slapped the Shelby logo, sent it back to Ford and they marked it up a bunch
@@Christophertruck In 1965 a SHELBY GT350 was $4584 and a 1965 Mustang 2+2 Fastback was $2553.
Lolol! Not a chance and I’m the biggest fan of ford and mustangs…… big cancel
This car ain’t even worth 200k after their stickers and engine mods. And it probably looses more value after you ruin your track pack gt 500.
I agree. A nice GT500 track pack do a pulley swap and ok if you want to put the power down better hit up fathouse for a motec system which I hear can be done on supercharged stangs now.
Man there’s some people who GOT IT and be just buying shit
300k Mustang…Carroll is rolling in his grave
Hard to justify the 300k price. With the big wing track car. Not a drag car. Which I like
I believe it is supposed to be the drag racer... from what I hear
Is it worth $300,000.00? Considering it is a Mustang, NO. I think I'd take my Shelby GT500, if I had one, to Palm Beach Dyno, reputable company, and have them install there x900s package, which includes all parts and installation for $12,700.00. The car produces 1010-1030hp at the crank after the upgrades and is still street legal. Then I'll take my old supercharger and see what I can sell it for. It is not the first time Ford has attempted to make an outrageous profit on a non-street legal track car, they asked $1,200,000.00 for the Ford GT MK2 Track Only. How would the track only version be worth that much more than the road going street legal Ford GT, who knows? ? ?
What a rip.
E85 is street legal. Every gas station in town has it.
200k for an upgrade GT500? I guess the real gain here is that it is Shelby certified 🤔
If rich yes! Take it to half and full mile run events would be epic! Then see how it does on a road course!
That's two Plaids!
The answer to your thumbnail question is NO.
If what you say is true. It's only for the rich or the fool. Good luck to the customers. BTW I don't believe in luck
Let's see. $320,000 for a 1300 hp on e85/1000 hp on pump gas and not street legal. Not a chance in hell I would pay that much money for that car when I can pay $26,000 for the wide body kit installed at Shelby then send it to Fathouse Fabrications and for $20,000 more get 1000 whp and can drive it on the street
if I was a millionaire sure I'd buy it just for the sake of collecting it but as a gearhead I would rather go out and buy a C5-C6 Vette and modify the tits out of it seeing as they're a cheap platform to invest in and the 6.0L is a god damn monster engine as well
WAY overpriced!!
We are having a stock market crash in September...
Unless I won a $4,000,000 lottery, it is a hard no for me.
Man it’s easy … buy a standard GT … get the engine taken out … buy a cobra jet engine 1000 hp from Ford performance … car cost 45,000 …engine 35,000 … bolt it all together and you have a monster from Ford performance with warranty for the engine ……80,000 and you drop wheelies every gear 😂
Ford went crazy!!!
That’s a terrible deal. And I thought GM and Ford were crooks…..Shelby taking it to a new level.
This is a Ford product.
@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again Shelby American
@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again pretty sure it’s Shelby up charging for work they will do on top of the Ford product.
It would be best if a couple of buddies could come together and buy this car and just share it LOL but then for a couple of buddies that's still a lot of money 💸💸💸😳
I'm sure it's worth $300,000 but I will say it's better to invest $300,000 in something else and make a crazy return.....
This rare care is to be compared with the Hope Diamond; destined to become a part of a "TrailerQueen" car collection, only to be viewed on very special and specific occasions!!
These cars will only be driven enough to accumulate 10 miles per year and always garage kept.
Every other car news source where I've seen this car had it listed cheaper
Not road legal. So it is a 300k piece of art
In other words it’s a mustang with an NRE motor probably cheaper to buy a mustang and have NRE put a new motor in it.
Why not start off with just a shell body like
I like it I will drive it water tires black with orange stripes I would love to have it
Ridiculous. 👎👎
No its not. Now you kinda start to notice manufacturers getting greedy. They’re putting out cars we already have just with more upgrades and options for double the price. Not worth it just buy a gt500 and modify to how u like it.
thought u were going shopping to buy jr somr cowboy boots and clothes
I guessed it would be a $160 upgrade in your last video and I believe I was the highest. Most guesses were around $60k
Prices have gotten beyond goofy. 👎
And I'll add it's a nice looking and nice speced car but horribly over priced. The person that buys these will own leer jets and buy them just because they can spend ridiculous amounts of money just to show them off to their rich buddies. 🤦
Werbenshmit Effect: People choose their poison and consider it fair. Id pay $1 for this. Why? Why not.
I can guarantee you it won't be me buying it 🤣🤣👍
Actually it is street legal. I saw the unveiling of it last week and they basically said the street legal.
In writing they say it is not street legal.
Personally myself if I had that type of money I definitely would get it I would take American muscle car over exotic car any day, 1300 hp with a full warranty there is nothing about this car that needs to be touch besides the wing !!!!🔥😎
I dont think it has full warranty
@@FordKillinFiatandShitvydaily definitely come with a full warranty if you buying the whole car from Shelby, but if you only upgrading your gt500. To a code red their no warranty
That’s so not worth it you but those kits because you get a warranty but you don’t get that
I’d say it’s insane pricing and it still has the crapy mustang interior the base C8 has a nicer interior if it’s a drag strip car get the 7 second challenger.
The price of the car is for the one who can not for the one who wants.
Cool build but way overpriced for a non warranted car and keeping all my parts. It’s a hard pass. You can do a gt350 and boost it beyond that for half the money.
Ford has lost their damn mind for a car you can't even drive on the street
I hope this car exists in nfs unbound
If you're vast majority of ppl, the answer is no. But making 30-50 or so units, it isn't for the masses. If you ask who it is marketed to...the top 5-10%, they will say "yes". Case in point, they aren't marketing to those that would say "No" 🤔🙌
No late model mustang is worth that much. just like the super snake. All you're paying for is a name plate. You can take a regular GT500 and easily get this performance for a 3rd of the price. I'd like to know what kind of crack are they smoking over at Shelby.
I think it’s worth it for the well off, who are pretty much in the market for a unique and papered toy. As for the average guy, (especially a tech who can wrench and tune) they can pretty much get the same numbers, and reliability for a fraction. My unprofessional $0.02
Making a reliable 1300 hp is EXTREMELY difficult. I'm not saying this car is a good buy at that price, and while I think you COULD make 1300 hp for far less, it wouldn't be reliable, handle as good, look as good, etc
