in 1992 on labor day weekend he was at a car show in Lime rock CT, I noticed him speaking to a crowd gathered around him and some of the original Lemans cars, as he walked away from the crowd he was heading my way so I reached out for a hand shake and he took it and I said to him thanks , I walked away somewhat stunned that he had shaken my hand, later on I found my girlfriend and I could hardly tell her what had happened without choking up. still do a bit thinking about it .

I lived in Europe, and i can tell you that when i was in 2nd grade we had a 1970 mustang pass by our school, and when everybody saw it they literally jumped to the window to watch it pass buy, i even remember how 1 girl said that when she gets older she wanted to buy that car, this car has character, and everyone always knows what it is when it passes by

That tribute was one of the most grandiose piece of journalism of all time

The heritage bit about Carol Shelby made me smile with tears in my eyes. So beautiful.

Americans like cars very simple... they care about power more than comfort, unlike Europeans! A base mustang has 305 horsepower where as a BMW 328i for example only has 240 horsepower... In America BMW is $10000 more than a mustang! Shelby GT500 is a true muscle car it was never designed for great handling, but its a true power house

Such an incredible tribute. Every time I watch this I get chills.

3:13 no its not "lavishly equipped" the point of a Shelby is not to be the most luxurious car but to really make a connection with the driver. Driving it (even at slow speeds) you feel it and respect it. And from what I've seen, you can really do some crazy stuff with it once you get to know it.

such a beautiful car...

Great episode. I'm glad that Jeremy respects the tradition of Carroll Shelby. Mr. Shelby made these vehicles for the working man to afford. An attainable goal that one could reach, and not cost you six figures. This is so much more than a car.. It encapsulates the dreams and aspirations of millions of people.

Pause it at 3:05 /// is that 98 octane petrol?? That’s impressive for a gas station

Yet another reason to hate the Daily Mail, as if I needed another.

I'm a proud owner of a Shelby GT500 & proud member of Team Shelby and I was lucky enough to meet the legendary great Carroll Shelby before his passing and my license plate pays tribute to him. RIP Mr. Shelby.

That was already a great improvement, keep it up.

Also, That's a nice Shelby Mustang GT500. :)

Never seen a better tribute ever since Thierry Henry left Football Thank you very much Mr Shelby :'(

Great tribute to my hero! Just FYI, Carroll Shelby did make the grade! In an Aston Martin ... winning LeMans ... like a legend!

Two times this man got me! This tribute to Shelby and a funeral for a Ford when it all ended.

Don't know why you guys keep saying Clarkson hates the Mustang. He says it's a good-looking car and describes the power as "intoxicating". Not to mention the heritage.
