The first car is a 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. The latest GT500 is well equipped with a 5.2-liter supercharged V8 capable of producing 760hp. It is a rear-wheel drive car and its power far out-performs its traction. As the most powerful mustang ever produced, the 2020 Shelby GT500 utilizes a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.5-seconds. Sticker price for a comfortably equipped GT500 is approximately $75k.
In the other lane is the German counterpart. The 2019 Porsche GT3 RS is a rear-engine rear-wheel drive automobile which uses a slightly smaller engine. It is a 244 cubic-inch unit (aluminum block and cylinder heads) with direct fuel injection. It can churn out 520hp through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in only 2.5-seconds. Price (as shown) is about $210k.
Let’s see which of them have what it takes on the track.
