Hennessey Selling 25th Anniversary Ford Mustang HPE800 On eBay

Quote:
The special 2016 Ford Mustang HPE800 created by Hennessey Performance to celebrate its 25th anniversary is currently up for sale from $105,000 on eBay.

No bids have been placed and at the time of writing, just over four days are left on the sale. Considering the Buy It Now price is an identical $105k to the starting bid, it wouldn't make any sense for prospective buyers to place bids.

As the name of the upgraded Mustang suggests, it has been tuned to deliver a 800 hp (804 to be precise) and delivers 648 lb-ft of ferocious twisting power. To achieve those power gains, the muscle car's 5.0-liter V8 engine has been complemented with a 2.9-liter supercharger, a carbon fiber high-flow air induction system, an axle-back exhaust system and an upgraded fuel pump system.

All told, Hennessey claims this brute can monster the 0-60 mph (96 km/h) sprint in just 3.1 seconds, demolish the quarter mile in 10.7 seconds at 133 mph (214 km/h) and power through to a supercar-rivalling 207.9 mph (334 km/h) top speed.

2018 Shelby Mustang GT500 Mule Spotted On Public Road, Eyes Dodge's Hellcat

[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nijr-Fu1PQ8"]2018/2019 Shelby GT500 Mustang Prototype Soundcheck - YouTube[/ame]

Quote:
Footage of a development mule for the 2018 Shelby Mustang GT500 has found its way online, giving us a first taste of the upcoming tire slayer.

The car in the video, uploaded by the guys over at Mustang6g, was spotted near Ford’s Dearborn development grounds and as you can see has a covered front end to hide not only the GT500’s differences from lesser models, but also the scheduled facelift of the whole range which is set to bring things like redesigned headlights.

The rest of the car looks pretty much standard GT350 but a windshield sticker reading "TT-0081" is probably revealing what’s underneath the bonnet. The same TT initials can be found on some Raptor pickup trucks and they are using a twin-turbo engine.

In the case of the GT500, Ford is probably going to install a biturbo V8 engine to offer unprecedented levels of performance. Although he didn’t capture it on video, the uploader claims that the prototype did sound like a proper angry turbocharged V8.

The company needs a good answer to Chevrolet’s 650hp Camaro ZL1 and Dodge’s 707hp Hellcat and the new GT500 is expected to be exactly that.

I love that sounds. In most Youtube videos...you hear that sounds...and then screams of the crowd that it is plowing into...

But for real, I really did like that sound it makes.

Why do you think the video was cut right before it turned out into traffic on the street?

Eh, there was only a crowd of about 7 people (if that's a crowd)-we're gonna do another video/soundclip/mow down later. Perhaps the next charity event or something.

Wherever we can get the most phone camera angles.
