Most Powerful Cars: Cars with More Horsepower than a Ranch

2014 Ford Shelby GT500

The most potent production of the Ford Mustang takes an opposite approach to most modern sports cars. Where the competition uses an entire Best Buy of technical gizmos to make the car go fast and stay straight, the Ford Shelby GT500 remains true to the American muscle car with its straight axel and the only electronic aids are 1) a launch control and 2) traction control.

The Ford Shelby GT500 features a 5.8-liter V-8 engine that produces a whopping 662 horsepower with a low, low price of $54,200.
