In the latest Carwow video, a Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 challenges the fast, yet dated Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series.
Before you hit Play, let us review the numbers first. The German roadster packs a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 capable of 631 PS (622 hp / 464 kW) and 635 Nm (468 lb-ft) of torque. The North American muscle car packs a 5.2-liter V8 forced to 771 PS (760 hp / 567 kW) and 847 Nm (625 lb-ft) of torque.
Thiss makes the Mustang the obvious favorite – at least on paper – but let us not forget that it also weighs around 366 kg (807 lbs) more. That’s like having four large adults in the car while drag racing – the difference could be massive.
So, which one do you think will win?
