We may have lost a legend in the automotive world, but the company he left behind is trucking along better than ever. Most are more familiar with the new 662 hp Shelby GT500, especially since buzz has been circulating around with the Shelby taking on the domestic nemesis, the Camaro ZL1.

Let’s not forget the GT500’s older sibling, the GT350. It is indeed older considering the original GT350 was the first aftermarket Mustang placed into production.
