One of the hottest muscle cars in the market today is the 2020 Carroll Shelby Signature Series. As the folks at Shelby have done almost since the Ford Mustang launched, they have taken the 2020 Mustang and hopped it up with more horsepower and performance. The resulting vehicle is the Ford Carroll Shelby Signature Series. Shelby American will limit the car to only 100 each model year featuring the Carroll Shelby Signature Edition package.

Each of those limited-edition vehicles will have a Shelby CSM number and will be documented in the official Shelby American Registry. Other owner benefits with the 100 limited models include entry into Team Shelby, a donation to the Carroll Shelby Foundation, and more. Other options include a popular wide-body package and a First 15 package.

The biggest change for the Shelby GT500SE is an additional 40 hp from the supercharged V-8 engine. The car also gets a fully functional dry carbon fiber bonnet, new wheels, tires, suspension tuning, interior upgrades, new badges, stripes, and more. The extra 40 hp is massaged out of the 5.2-liter V-8 engine thanks to a new pulley and coolers for the supercharger.

The car is lowered and features more track-focused springs to make it handle better.

All Shelby conversions and upgrades are done at the official Mod Shop in the Western Cape by a team of technicians trained by Shelby American in limited numbers, three to be exact.

The Carroll Shelby Signature Series is priced at R2 708 000, including base vehicle. Pricing is subject to exchange rate fluctuations.
