2015-Ford-Mustang-GT500
2015 FORD MUSTANG GT500 - Any car with 662 hp for less than 60 grand is a real performance bargain, even if all it could do was drive in a straight line. The Shelby GT500, however, not only accelerates with alarming brute force, but it turns and stops surprisingly well, too, making it a hoot at the track. True, the unrefined interior and lumpy ride aren’t pleasant, but the GT500 is as bad-ass as anything on the road. While the 2014 model remains on sale, its replacement based on the new Mustang won’t arrive until 2016.
