Ford Mustang GT500 Makes Its UK Debut At The Goodwood Festival Of Speed

The Ford Mustang GT500 is in the news again, this time it’s in the news headlines across the pond in the UK. The Goodwood festival of speed is an annual event held every year at Goodwood House in Sussex England and hosted by the Earl of March. This Year in a fitting tribute to Carroll Shelby, Ford are showing off the all new 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500 that makes 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 5.8-liter V-8 engine, It will be piloted up the hill and around the track by a bevy of surprise guest drivers. Specially shipped for its first appearance outside America, the US-only supercar will blast up the famous Goodwood hillclimb. The iconic Zakspeed Ford Capri is also set to sprint up the hill, challenging the 1.16-mile hillclimb speed record of 41.6 seconds, set by Nick Heidfeld in 1999. Hopefully down force-generating front grilles, an aggressive splitter, a new quad-exhaust system and new forged-aluminium wheels will help get the car up the hill quick. The Shelby is also equipped at Goodwood with an optional Performance Goodwood Package featuring electronically adjustable dampers and a Torsen® limited-slip differential, plus an additional Track Package for all-out race track performance including three additional coolers. Ford’s decision to ship in the Shelby GT500 does raise one glaring question, though: why isn’t Chevrolet showing off its new Camaro ZL1 at Goodwood?

Spotted 2015 Mustang And There Is Something Different About It

We can hear you say - whats so different about it - it looks like a 2013 Mustang GT - Well yes it does until you get a closer look. Here are some shots from the internet as reported by varous websites. These shots show a possible 2015 Ford Mustang GT disguised as a 2013 GT - experts say the 2013 Mustang body work has large gaps and that could mean it is just a skin to cover what is probably the new 2015 chassis. What makes it so special? Well take a look at what’s not there: a live rear-axle, - Its gone and replaced with IRS similar to the 99-04 Mustang SVT Cobra set up.
Here is photographic evidence that the 2015 Mustang will finally ditch the old live rear axle setup in favor of an independent rear suspension. As previously reported on the internet, it was expected for the next-generation Mustang to use a version of the Control Blade trailing-arm setup used down in Australia by the Ford Falcon. Thanks, to this picture, we can pretty much confirm that will be the case when the 2015 Mustang is revealed in 2014, most likely at the car’s 50th anniversary at the New York auto show.
Expect the 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 to carry over from the recently refreshed 2013 Mustang, but not much else. There have been rumors that the Mustang will use a range of turbocharged EcoBoost engines, including even a turbo-four for an SVO model. The 3.7-liter V-6 may or may not reappear; the crystal ball is still hazy on that matter. What it is clear on is that the 2015 Mustang will use Ford’s new Kinetic 2.0 styling language, as seen on the Evos concept car and the 2013 Fusion. According to Ford’s VP of global product design, Hau Thai-Tang, the next Mustang won’t eschew its heritage-based look but will also have a clear familial link.
