This 2008 Ford Mustang GT convertible was purchased new by the seller, and a series of modifications led to it being certified by Cervini’s Auto Designs in 2011 as one of their limited-production C-500 examples. A Ford Racing supercharger kit was fitted to the 4.6-liter V8, as were a cold-air intake system, Kooks headers, a side-exit exhaust system, and SCT engine-management software. Additional modifications include Cervini bodywork, chrome Shelby 20″ wheels, a Hurst shifter, Raxiom headlights, sequential taillights, Wilwood brakes, and Koni dampers. Finished in black over Dark Charcoal leather, the car is also equipped with a five-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, a black convertible top, a Shaker sound system, cruise control, and air conditioning. With an indicated 11k miles, this Mustang convertible is now offered with a window sticker, owner’s manuals, two keys, a serialized Cervini’s certificate, parts and service records, removed parts, a car cover, and a clean Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in black (UA) and received a color-matched Cervini C-series body kit in 2008 consisting of valances, side skirts, billet grilles, a Ram Air hood, a rear spoiler, side scoops, and a convertible styling bar. Additional exterior details include a black convertible top, body-color mirror housings, and Raxiom headlights with LED halos, black housings, and tinted lenses in addition to fog lights and Cervini Shelby-style sequential taillights. Close-up photos showing chipped paint and rear-spoiler deformation are provided in the gallery below.

Chrome-plated 20″ Shelby Series 1 wheels are mounted with 255/35 front and 275/35 rear Toyo Proxes T1R tires that have 2007 and 2008 production-date codes. Cervini C-500 conversion included fitting the suspension with Koni STR.T dampers, urethane bushings, a 35mm tubular front sway bar, and a 22mm rear sway bar. Braking is provided by Wilwood calipers along with slotted and cross-drilled rotors.

The front bucket seats are upholstered in Dark Charcoal leather with Cervini seatback embroidery, and the door panels and contoured rear bench are trimmed to match. The cabin is further appointed with a Shaker audio system, driver-seat power adjustments, keyless entry, cruise control, a Hurst TR-3650 shifter, and air conditioning. The audio system shows an error message when switching to the CD player.

The three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts a 145-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature, fuel level, voltage, and oil pressure. The digital odometer indicates 11k miles, all of which were added under current ownership.

The 4.6-liter V8 was fitted in 2008 with a Ford Racing supercharger kit, which consists of a Whipple W140AX supercharger, an intercooler, 39-pound/hour injectors, and upgraded fuel and water pumps. A cold-air intake system and an underdrive accessory-belt pulley were installed at that time, and the engine-management system received a custom SCT Xcalibrator 2 tune two years later.

Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission along with a limited-slip differential with 3.55:1 gearing. The exhaust system has been fitted with Kooks long-tube headers and an X-pipe with high-flow catalysts as well as a Cervini cat-back, side-exit exhaust system.

The included Cervini’s Auto Designs certificate notes a build date of April 5, 2011, as well as the Cervini-assigned unique serial number. Matching information is stamped on the door-jamb tag, a photo of which can be found in the gallery.
