It seems like just yesterday that we extolled the virtues of the Shelby GT350, calling it the best and most compelling Mustang ever built. But now there's the GT500 and it outperforms its little brother in every measurable metric. The big-brother Shelby combines unbelievable straight-line performance with impressive handling, all while managing to be fairly comfortable and as practical as any other Mustang.
