FOR SALE: 2013 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Coupe

In the trajectory of American high-performance engineering, the 2013 Shelby GT500 represents a definitive watershed moment. This was the year Ford’s Special Vehicle Team (SVT) officially breached the 200-mph barrier, cementing the Mustang’s transition from a regional muscle icon to a globally respected supercar-slayer. Now offered on Bring a Trailer, this Race Red example is more than a car; it is a meticulously preserved time capsule of internal combustion at its zenith.

At the heart of this GT500 lies the legendary 5.8-liter Trinity V8. The supercharged powerhouse was factory rated at a staggering 662 horsepower and 631 lb-ft of torque. This specific chassis is further distinguished by the SVT Track Pack, which integrates external oil, transmission, and differential coolers—essential hardware for managing the thermal loads generated by the massive TVS supercharger during spirited driving.

With only 258 miles on the odometer, this vehicle remains in showroom condition. The Race Red paint, punctuated by Performance White stripes, retains its factory luster, while the undercarriage reflects a life spent in climate-controlled storage. Modern enhancements have been applied with a purist-plus philosophy.

In 2024, the staggered 19-inch and 20-inch forged alloy wheels were fitted with Nitto NT555 G2 tires, ensuring the massive power reaches the pavement more effectively than the original rubber. The addition of H&R lowering springs provides a more aggressive, planted stance, perfectly complementing the Brembo front calipers.

The Recaro front sport seats, finished in Charcoal Black leather with contrasting white accents, offer the lateral support necessary for high-G maneuvers. Despite its raw power, this GT500 is surprisingly civilized. The optional Electronics Package adds dual-zone climate control and a navigation system, while the Shaker Pro sound system provides a premium acoustic experience to rival the roar of the quad polished exhaust outlets.

For the collector, this is an opportunity to own the highest-output manual-transmission Mustang of its era. As we move further into the digital age of mobility, the raw, mechanical purity of the Trinity-powered GT500 only becomes more desirable.
