The 850 hp version of the 2013 GT500 features an 850 hp Whipple supercharger or a Kenne Bell one.
The 2013 Shelby GT500 Super Snake sits on 20-inch wheels, and Wildwood brakes (6-piston calipers in the front and 4-piston ones in the back). Additionally, Shelby equips the new GT500 Super Snake (2013) with a bespoke fiberglass hood, and various badges. Shelby announced that the 2013 GT500 Super Snake's price is set at $28,995.00 for the 662 HP model and at $39,995.00 for the 850 HP version.
