2008 FORD MUSTANG

This CarFAX and AutoCheck GUARANTEED 2008 Shelby GT500 Cobra Convertible is an exceptional blend of performance, style, and rarity, making it a must-have for any serious collector! With just over 25k miles and only 3 prior owners, this Shelby is in impeccable condition and presents even better in person than it does in the photos.

1 of only 216 Vapor Clearcoat Metallic Convertibles produced in 2008, this car stands out with its black-on-black interior and ebony racing stripes—a combination that’s as rare as it is stunning. The exterior is in excellent shape, with only a few minor stone chips (under 4mm) that have been professionally touched up. There are no dents, dings, scuffs, or scratches—just a glassy, slick finish that gleams in any light. The black convertible roof is in perfect condition with no rips, tears, stains, or brittleness, and it functions flawlessly, raising and lowering smoothly. The rubber weatherstripping is soft and pliable, ensuring a tight seal when closed. The HID headlights are crystal clear and free of moisture or fogging, and all other lights and markers work perfectly. This GT500 is equipped with SVT-badged 10-spoke titanium gray 20-inch alloy wheels, wrapped in Continental EXTREME Contact tires, boasting over 6/32" tread depth on all four corners (sized 265/35ZR20 up front and 285/35ZR20 in the rear).

Inside, the black leather upholstery is pristine, showing no stains, rips, or tears. The rest of the cabin is just as immaculate, including the carpet, door panels, dash, and center console—there are no signs of wear anywhere. All buttons and switches look and function like new, with no warning lights or electrical issues. This Shelby is equipped with optional Ambient lighting, SIRIUS XM radio, and a SHAKER 500 audio system with Navigation. Additionally, it features the Shelby interior package, complete with 6-way power seats, and the Shelby rollbar and windscreen that were added by the previous owner.

Mechanically, this Shelby is in outstanding condition. Aside from a few performance upgrades, including an aluminum catch-can and JLT intake, the car is completely stock. It starts, runs, and performs flawlessly with no issues or hiccups. The Tremec transmission shifts smoothly, and the clutch engagement is precise with that classic GT500 feel. Power delivery is strong and smooth throughout all gears, while the brakes perform flawlessly with no fade or pulling. The car tracks perfectly straight and offers a surprisingly comfortable ride for a high-performance sports car.

This GT500 comes complete with the original owner's manual packet, including a Shelby insert, and two functional keys with key FOBs. Having sold over 40 S197 GT500s, I can confidently say that these cars are a joy to drive—modern enough for daily use but with just the right amount of old-school muscle car charm.

This rare and well-maintained Shelby won’t last long.
