GeigerCars has unveiled a new tuning package for the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500.

Dubbed the GT640 Golden Snake, the car features a matte gold exterior with a carbon fiber hood, a front lip spoiler and extended side skirts. Additionally, the company installed an adjustable H&R sports suspension and 20-inch alloy wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

Under the hood, the 5.4-liter V8 has been equipped with a supercharger, a revised ECU, and a stainless steel sport exhaust system. Thanks to these modifications, the engine produces 640 PS (471 kW / 631 hp) and 789 Nm (582 lb-ft) of torque. This enables the Golden Snake to rocket from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 295 km/h (183 mph).

The components will be available for purchase individually, but the demo model is for sale for €89,000 ($125,475).
