After much speculation over the past month about the price of the 'Super Snake' package, Amy Boylan, president of Shelby Automobiles Inc. confirmed the price of $27,995 for the Shelby 'Super Snake' package over at  StangsUnleased forums.  She went on to say the price is expensive because of all the parts included and the retooling that has to take place to produce these cars.  She also posted a more detailed list of all the parts that will be included in the package which can be seen after the jump. 

So for a breakdown of what it will cost to get into one of these, MSRP for Shelby GT500 coupe $44K (est) + 'Super Snake' Package of $27,995 = $72K or so.

    i can't wait until the super snake comes out and blows the competition away with looks and performance. it will leave everyone in the dust. GM will never be able to match Ford with anything close.

    has to have upper air scoops, more of a duck tail rear spoiler, and the "snake eye",sequential slit tail lights of the original.

    Dodge will crap over it with the 600 hp Viper. And after all its a mustang most girls no it as a mustang not GT, not cobra, not KR or even Super Snake. But people know Viper and they dont make 10 different vipers like GM and Ford does

    I agree with the fact that Ford is overpricing their Mustang upgrades like hell, but I believe the reason for this is their financial trouble. They are probably trying to gain back some money lost through their most popular and best-selling cars. With what Turbo specialist said, I agree I could put 30,000 into a plain GT Mustang and have better results and looks. I personally have a Mustang GT, and have no problems with it whatsoever...plus Mustang is one of the best-selling cars ever, so I put kudos to that fact.

    yes I totally agree KUja01. with a basic 05 gt if you put 30k or even 20k you could build your own super snake it might not say shelby but it will have all those shelby owners hating on you. at least thats what I plan in doing.

    Seriously? You guys really need to do your homework, and understand that the Shelby Super Snake is not manufactured by Ford. It is manufactured by SHELBY!!! Hints the title, "Shelby Super Snake." I do however, agree with the statement that GM will not be able to match this vehicle. Whether it's performance, or looks... The Super Snake has marked it's territory, and it's here to stay.

    "( . )( . )"

    the super snake is a bad animal. i do wonder if it will wonder if it will outrun the zr1, with the weight and all. true it can have as much as 750+ hp which is a shade over 100 more than a zr1 but the zr1 weighs over 1100 lbs less. so it will be interesting to see. and as for the guy about the supra. good point you can put 30 grand in anything hell i can build a whole car ind it have more performance than a zr1 and the super snake.

    the super snake is bad and about time ford put the bull shit aside and let its' name be attached to something in the supercar world. even with it being an upgrade all of the big three have them: gm with lingenfelter and calloway, ford with roush and shelby, and dodge with HENNESSEY COUGH!1400+HPCOUGH!!but we really dont want to talk about that though do we :)

    PFFF. Whatever dude. A standard C6 runs 12.4's non pro driver in a quarter with 435 hp. That 725 "super" snake does 12.5 from car and drivers driver. Ford has nothing on performance. That thing needs a diet and a suspension. its over 4000 pounds and cant hook up.

    real fast makes a great point with the hennessy vipers...i love the super snakes but the super snake the corvet c6 zr1 whatever won't touch a hennessy viper tt(0-200+mph) in under a mile. and the turbo guy made a good point kenne bell makes a supercharger that will bolt up to a completely stock '05 and up mustang gt and give it over 700hp at the rear wheels...its called the mammoth supercharger look it up if you dont believe me

    ALL YOU GUYS ARE MISSING THE POINT IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOU CAN DO TO WHAT TO MAKE IT FASTER THE POINT IS THAT YOU WILL BE DRIVING A SHELBY SUPER SNAKE, FOR EXAMPLE WHY DO YOU BUY NIKE OR REEBOK BECAUSE YOU KNOW IT REPESENTS QUALITY WELL SAME THING HERE YOU CAN GO SOOP UP A HONDA CIVIC TO BEAT A LAMBORGHINI BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY UR DRIVING A HONDA CIVIC WOOPTY DOO WHATS THE FUN IN THAT AND THE PEOPLE THAT OWN A SUPER SNAKE IS NOT WORRYING ABOUT THE PRICE AND MONEY IS NOT A ISSUE. AND IF YOU PUT $30,OOO INTO A SUPRA UR JUST PLAIN OUT STUPID GROW UP GET A MANS CAR 750HP OF PURE MAN STRAIGHT FROM THE FACTORY YOU CANT BEAT IT.

    I love the 69 Z28, but I'm seriously thinking about buying a Super Snake. Is that sacreligous for a Chevy guy to want a Shelby? I don't care, I think it's a badass car and I might just get one...

    everybody forgets about the fact that the super snake is not factory and that the 725hp tune does not have a warranty unlike the zr1. lets settle the scoere for those big eago ford fans and turn the zr1 over to john lingenfelder! the most popular car for middle aged crisis women dont stand a chance n that is the cold truth.

    At the end of the day, this will be a sought after car. Its a Shelby, its real fast and to most people it looks good. It's still going to be on the want list by a lot of people in 10 years time.
    Certain cars just do that to people and this is one of them.

    @ SHELBY LOVER. you're talking as if you could even drive that thing. its wheels aren't even wide enough to put all the power to the floor!! and its speedometer only reads out to 160? yeah OK a mans car my ass. A supra on the other hand will KILL a super snake in a heart beat [stock] and your "soop" up the car.. ford will be lucky to even see it after it takes off. So know what your talking about. Don't get me wrong, i think the super snake is one badass car too.. but it just can't perform as well as it looks.
    -and i completely agree with "bunk".. and for all those people that think the car is fast one the track, its not.. read into it before you start racing for pink slips thinking your cute little pony is big and bad.

    So much comments and negativity. Wow! We'll its just my two cents but it is a Shelby. And this Super Snake is one of the 1st cars I would buy if money were no option. Someone had mentioned Lingerfelter earlier and another had said something about Vipers not having multiple versions. Still don't matter. Mustang lovers unite. You still got Shelby, Foose, Roush, Saleen... cause they want to put their thumbprint on the premier pony car. I just gotta figure out how to obtain one for myself!

    it is a bad ass car but its still a mustang at heart. THRYRE TOO F---IN HEAVY TO EVEN COME CLOSE TO COMPETING WITH ANY "REAL" SUPERCAR. i bet the corvette zr1 still faster cuz of the power to weight ratio. good 4 ford and shelby but Carrol needs to take some weight off that 4000lb beast
