2nd of 2 episodes from the ISSIMI published version of this series. The Shelby name has been applied to everything from the magnificent Mustang GT350 to stickered-up economy cars. Jason’s question: is the new GT500 a marketing stunt, or is it one of those true Shelby specials that's so good it’s destined to become an icon? In the 2nd episode of ICONS, presented by ISSIMI, automotive journalist Jason Cammisa puts the 2020 Shelby GT500 into perspective by comparing it against the benchmarks — the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS (991.2), and the quickest-accelerating, front-engine, rear-drive car of all time, the magnificent Ferrari 812 Superfast. Jason also drives a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 to teach us about the original Shelby Cobra homologation Mustangs and where the GT350 name comes from . And what the GT500 name doesn't mean.
