Description
2009 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR — 540 HP, Numbered Build, Vista Blue, 6-Speed Manual
The "KR" in GT500KR stands for King of the Road — a name that dates back to 1968, when Shelby introduced the original GT500KR as the top-of-the-line muscle car in the Mustang lineup. Ford and Shelby revived that designation for 2008 and 2009 as a limited-production variant that sat above the standard GT500 in every meaningful way. The 2009 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR was not simply a GT500 with appearance upgrades. It was a purpose-built package developed jointly by Ford's Special Vehicle Team and Shelby Automobiles, with a factory-rated 540 horsepower — up from the GT500's 500 — achieved through a combination of a Ford Racing cold air intake, revised supercharger calibration, and a specifically tuned version of the 5.4-liter supercharged V8. Production for the 2009 model year was tightly limited, making this one of the rarer S197-generation Mustangs to come to market in any condition, let alone in the documented, well-preserved state this example represents. Each GT500KR was assigned a numbered Shelby build plaque, which is present on this car, confirming its place in the production registry. The car you are looking at carries that history intact — matching Vista Blue paint, black leather interior with Carroll Shelby signature headrests, the full carbon fiber aero package, and a clean undercarriage that tells the story of a car that has been cared for from the beginning.
