How Much is a 2011 GT500 Worth? w/video
Every year gamers from around the US gather near Dallas Texas for the gamers Woodstock know as QuakeCon. QuakeCon is an annual 4 day event for gamers to veg-out and play their best. The sponsor of QuakeCon, Ventrilo, held a raffle this year with the desirer to give away two 2011 Ford Shelby GT500‘s. With only 100 tickets handed out your chances of winning were actually quite good.
As the story goes, only minute before the raffle drawing one man seemed to think that $200 was worth his ticket. Sadly, that was the ticket first drawn. If selling your GT500 winning ticket wasn’t bad enough, he was right at the stage and had the story told to everyone around and was caught on camera to find its way to the internet. What kind of gamer would really want a 540 hp all aluminum block GT500 anyway… › Continue reading
America Packs a Small Punch: The 2011 Ford Fiesta
America is known for big cars, and lets face it, we like big cars. Even foreign companies that make great small cars in the rest of the world don’t usually attempt to bring them to the US because they know they will almost certainly be a sales flop. Or would they? When gas prices skyrocketed back in 2008, we had more demand than ever for small fuel efficient cars. Now that the cost of a tankfull has come back down to reality, is their still a demand? I think we are about to find out. › Continue reading
The Epic Battle: Mustang vs. Camaro w/video
2010 Camaro SS vs. 2010 Mustang GT
2010 Mustang GT vs 2010 Camaro SS
Some wars have been waging since the dawn of society with race vs. race, religion vs. religion, king vs. king. Other battles that are more short-lived but still remembered to this day like the Battle of the Alamo or the Battle of Waterloo. We just stumbled into such a battle that’s been waging on the streets for almost 50 years now. There has always been that epic battle between the Camaro and the Mustang spanning back to the late 60′s and revived today. This week at txGarage we were able to get a hold of a 2010 Camaro 2SS and a 2010 Mustang GT Premium, what else is there to do but race! › Continue reading
Day7: 2010 Shelby GT500
Day 7 2010 Shelby GT500
Day 7 with the 2010 Shelby GT500 was by far the most fun we had all week. We worked hard and tried to get lots of video and pictures of the car to show to you guys. As we talk about in the video, after tearing up the streets of Texas for a week in the GT500 we were never faced with an obstacle that the car couldn’t handle. Ford, SVT, and Shelby have made a great car with this one and we cant wait to check out the 2011 GT500 with the all aluminum block!
Till then, check out our video! › Continue reading
Day5: Shelby GT500
Day5 Shelby GT500
Today we went from rain to freezing weather to snow here in Dallas and unfortunately didn’t get the chance to shoot any video of the GT500 today. What I thought I would do, though, is take some time and relate our thoughts on the GT500 now that we have had 5 days behind the wheel. We also give a big shout out to some local guys in the car fanatic realm that we often talk to and who have helped us along our way. If we didn’t mention you, sorry we’ll get around to it!
Check out the video after the jump! › Continue reading
Day4 Shelby GT500
Day4 Shelby GT500
Day 4 was pretty miserable out as it was raining all day long. The rain, though, gave us the opportunity to check out two features on the car that we have yet to discuss. The first of those would be the traction control system. The system works pretty well and will catch you pretty quickly if you become a little stupid in the rain. You would have to be driving stupidly to really engage the traction control system though as this 540 horsepower beast is actually quite good in the rain. Don’t get me wrong though, if your right foot and your nerves are strong you can most certainly have some fun with the traction control disengaged. › Continue reading
