The car is POWERFUL, handling is near perfect, except sway bar could use a slight tweak. Very predictable. Acceleration off the line is less than impressive until your in the 4500 rpm range, then it blows everything away. The 5.4 block went major overhauls at SVT to improve performance and durability. Plasma liners inside the bores, high temperature gaskets, these features improved the strength of the engine, allowing it to push over 1000 hp, almost twice as much as it was making new. Also, 2011-12 models in near mint condition are reselling for around 55K$ ones with average mileage for those 2 years are at around 35K$-37,500K$

Bought my Shelby used with 25,000 miles on it in Fall of 2019. It now has 31,000 and every mile is a blast. It's my Bucket List, the only thing on my list so I plan to have it until I can't drive any more (I'm 77 in March). Hopefully will have many more wonderful driving miles in my future. I live in Taos, NM, 7,000 feet so during winter she sits in the garage but when the snow melts she's a daily driver. Doing small mods are fun and gives me mechanical things to do besides yard work, LOL! Just a ball to drive and I enjoy every minute on the Enchanted Circle Drive.
