    Officially, those are all 1st generation Mustangs you've described. The 1st gen of Mustangs went thru 1973. The GT350 and GT500 were each designed for different things. The 350 has always been the more track oriented car between the 2, while the 500 was more in your face, raw power. Still used on the track, but the 350 was generally the more successful track car. The 08 is from the 4th generation Mustang, but the first time the Shelby badge was used on it in decades. The Cobra moniker was used on the 2nd & 3rd generation Mustangs. Although the 2nd gens still carried the Shelby name alongside it. So, the 07-13 GT500s could be considered 2nd gen GT500s, but they were on the 4th gen Mustangs. And of course, the 2020 is the 5th gen Mustang, and the 3rd generation that received the GT500 moniker.

    @stefangrubesic2708 you are definitely right. I'm not sure where my head was at when I wrote that. The S197 was indeed the 5th gen and S550 was 6th. Which means I need to also edit that the Cobra moniker was also used on 4th gen Mustangs. Not just 2nd and 3rd; and while the Cobra II was a tribute of sorts to the Shelby, I don't think it ever actually had the Shelby name like I originally thought.

    I grew up in that area Sam. You were on Ocean Parkway, which back 20-30 yrs ago was a place people would go to do some high speed runs (mostly at night) and some street racing between Jones and Robert Moses State Parkways. It's cool that you guys went to All American for lunch. I haven't been there in years but it looks exactly the same as it has for decades. You need to get back there when it's warmer.

    gotta say that the hate on the 2008 is not only undeserved, but undervalued. you went with a super snake which is excess over the normal Shelby of the year. could've done the same for the s550 generation and would have also came away with the feeling that it was too unruly etc. The "crap" interior of the S197 generation is also my favorite and I will stand by that.

    There's not as many young Americans that love muscle cars as previous generations, but I took delivery of my GT350 in the south (Nascar country) and I had people taking pictures and giving thumbs up the first day I drove it. The 2020 GT500 is such a cool car for $80kish (used market). I know a guy who had the 2020 with full exhaust and it literally is the loudest thing I have ever heard. The 350 is so good, so precise for a large car, I owned it and a WRX in Malibu and the 350 was way more fun in the hills.

    Great video. Other viewers are right…you have to repeat this video with GT350’s! I wonder if those Mustangs were on summer tires. I use Michelin PS4S’s on my MKV Supra and once it gets too cold, it’s like driving on ice (the PS4S is better in cold than the older PSS). Based on how cold it looked that may be why those cars were getting loose with just a touch of the pedal. I live in Texas so it’s not worth putting all season tires on my cars but I’d do it in a heartbeat if I lived in NY or other parts up North.

    I think you've missed the point of the 5th Gen Mustang (I guess you could call it the 2nd Gen Shelby Mustang, although it's never called that in Mustang circles). It was a throwback to a simpler time. Classic looks with ample power and a great noise. The chassis was never designed for 750hp of the Super Snake. It wasn't even designed for the "stock" 500hp of the GT500. But a V8/GT with a few chassis tweaks is a great car. Of course it won't hang with a European car on a twisty road, but who cares? And the interior may use cheap materials but the V8/GT was a $25k car new in 2005. That was about £18k!!!! The 5th Gen Mustang is just like those cheeseburgers. Would you find one on the menu in a fancy restaurant? Nope. But my goodness they taste good and hit the spot. Yeah, I own two of them. Here in the UK :)

    Did Ford just stick a load of power in them and forget about the rest of the engineering.

    This what talking about . True America 🇺🇸 muscel cars . Totally agree their not best around corners . The chevy camaro and sister cars where better for that. So but the super snake in a ditch ?

    Sam in America they don't say manual transmission, they say four on the floor. So four-speed manually shifted when the gear lever comes up from the floor. Then when you have to shift gears with such an old American car, you put your left hand at twelve o'clock on the steering wheel, then you have better control over the car when shifting.
