Far too little attention is given to American cars here. Here we see the extremely popular Ford Mustang Shelby G.T. 500E Eleanor; read on to discover some facts about this car.
The Ford Mustang Shelby G.T. 500E Eleanor is much more than just a car; it is a legend on wheels that has gained its fame through cinematic appearances and impressive technical features. This vehicle, made famous by movies like "Gone in 60 Seconds" from 1974, is based on the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. The transformation into "Eleanor" was carried out by the company "Gone in 60 Seconds," which held a license from the automotive legend Carroll Shelby.
With a powerful V8 engine under its distinctive hood, the Eleanor offers a stunning performance of over 400 horsepower, making it a true powerhouse on the road. The characteristic design, characterized by twin headlights and a distinctive grille, gives this car an aggressive look that captures attention.
What makes the Eleanor even more desirable is its rarity. Handcrafted and produced in limited quantities, each specimen is unique. The exact number is not known, but only very few were built. Those fortunate enough to own an Eleanor often appreciate the manual transmissions that emphasize the driving pleasure and control over the car.
However, this automotive icon comes with a price. Due to its rarity and iconic status, the Eleanor becomes a coveted collector's item, and used models often reach significant values. Anyone looking to buy an Eleanor currently should be prepared to shell out at least $200,000. Interestingly, this beautiful specimen did not appear somewhere in Miami or London but in Jakarta, distant Indonesia.
