Ford is going to unveil the most powerful Ford Mustang ever in Detroit, later this month. The 2010 Shelby GT500 has had its power tuned up to 540 bhp and some 510 foot-pounds of torque. The GT500’s performance comes from a 5.4-litre V8 engine with a supercharger. The power dome on the hood serves a real purpose by taking in cool air to keep the engine at its best peak performance level.
Carroll Shelby, founder of Shelby Automobiles, says: “We’re proud of the many enhancements that were developed jointly by the Ford and Shelby Automobiles team last year that we’ve now incorporated into the new 2010 Shelby GT500. Building on what we learned to create the Shelby GT500KR, this new car offers a great combination of power, handling and braking. It is truly a special car that is a great deal of fun to drive.”
Reuters reports that despite the fact that General Motors, Ford Motor, and Chrysler requested some $34 billion of federal aid, a deal has been reached between the Democratic leaders and the White House to help the US car industry with a sum totalling between $15 billion and $17 billion.
Democratic leaders and the White House reached a deal to provide billions of dollars in relief to the ailing U.S. auto industry, a senior congressional aide told Reuters on Friday.
The package, which Democratic leaders hope to win passage of next week and send to President George W. Bush, totals between $15 billion and $17 billion, the aide said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The amount is far less than the $34 billion requested this week by General Motors, Ford Motor, and Chrysler, but Democratic leaders believe the money will keep them going until Barack Obama replaces Bush as president on January 20 and a new effort can be made for a rescue plan.
