Press Release) Ford Mustang Shelby GT640 Golden Snake
Golden Snake
Anybody who was once
able to drive a Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500, knows of what earthy
power outbreaks the current generation of this automobile legend is
capable of even when it operates with factory settings: smoking rear
tyres are not a problem even in higher gears and, once incited, the
GT500 becomes a wild animal. Logically, it has its radiator grill
with very good reason: the cobra with a widened sign on the neck
stands for pure aggressiveness.
Based on this power
vehicle, US car specialist GeigerCars.de from Munich now placed the
company's youngest show car on its wheels: the Ford Mustang Shelby
GT640 “Golden Snake”. The name absolutely reflects the mission of
the company!
The 5.4 litre V8 has
been prescribed a large 2.3 litre compressor as well as a Geiger
stainless steel sport exhaust system, so that the eightpointer -
after a mandatory software adaptation - sends now a wailing,
whopping 640 PS (series: 548 PS) to the back wheels. The
mechanically loaded engine produces 789 Nm on the crankshaft at the
highest point of the torque. After picking up strength, the Mustang
catapults itself in only 3.7 seconds to 100 km/h and reaches a top
speed of 295 km/h.
A novelty in the Mustang history is the material of the engine
block. This consists from the model year 2011 (series) namely of
aluminium, which significantly reduces the load on the front axle
and, thus, gives the Power Coupe a significantly better position on
the road.
Equally conducive to the
increased efficiency – even though it might sound baffling at first
– is the carbon engine bonnet. An intake air channel was skilfully
integrated into the engine bonnet, so that the airflow will be
optimally introduced to the combustion chambers. The front spoiler
lip also consists of the typically shimmering carbon fibre, while
the remaining body – nomen est omen – was painted in dead gold,
which lights up fascinatingly especially when the sun is low in the
sky. This is contrasted by the matt black Geiger rims with ring
accentuation in the colour of the vehicle, which are used in the
sizes 8.5x20 inch front and 10x20 inch rear. These have been fitted
with super Michelin Pilot sports tyres with the dimensions
255/35ZR20 and 285/30ZR20. An adjustable sports chassis from H&R
provides for optimal ground grip of the handy tyres. In addition,
the Mustang was equipped with a high-quality sound system with EU
navigation.
And: The demo vehicle is
for sale! For 89,000 euros the “Golden Snake” will change its owner.
