Daniel Linde February 8, 2012 Report February 8, 2012 The official launch of SVT came during the 1992 Chicago Auto Show with the unveiling of the 1993 SVT Mustang Cobra and SVT F-150 Lightning. Now Ford returns to Chicago to celebrate its past and look to the future with the 2013 Shelby GT500 convertible.In honor of SVT’s anniversary, a commemorative lighted sill plate will be used in the 2013 Shelby GT500 to celebrate the many years of performance vehicles. The 1993 SVT Mustang Cobra offered a 235-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 engine, which demonstrates just how far the products have come in 20 years. The 2013 Shelby GT500 with its 650-horsepower V8 marks the latest offering from one of the oldest and most successful automotive performance groups in the world.“The Shelby GT500 convertible is every bit the performer that the coupe is,” said Kerry Baldori, SVT Global Performance Vehicles chief engineer. “All of the significant changes we made in the program were instrumental in delivering a convertible that could really shine on the track but can still be driven on a daily basis.”The 2013 Shelby GT500 convertible with the optional Performance Package is faster around a track than the outgoing model. The new convertible shaved nearly 3.5 seconds off its lap time at Sebring International Raceway compared to the 2011 and 2012 models.Keys to the improved lap times are the power boost from the new 5.8-liter supercharged V8 producing 650 horsepower, as well as the SVT-designed Bilstein electronic adjustable dampers available on the Performance Package and the all-new chassis tuning.MustangsDaily: http://mustangsdaily.com/blog/2012/02/07/ford-officially-announces-2013-shelby-gt500-convertible/ Citera

laxkungen February 8, 2012 Report February 8, 2012 Jag tycker att denna årsmodell av mustang är superläcker. Speciellt bakljusen är läckra och skall jag byta upp mig någon gång så blir det en mustang av 2013 års modell. Citera
Daniel Linde February 8, 2012 Author Report February 8, 2012 jag har inte bestämt vad jag tycker om bakljusen.Måste nog vänja mig, precis som 2010 modellen. :-DI övrig ser den riktigt fräsch ut!!Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk Citera
