The Shelby name has been applied to everything from the magnificent Mustang GT350 to stickered-up economy cars. Jason’s question: is the new GT500 a marketing stunt, or is it one of those true Shelby specials that's so good it’s destined to become an icon?

In the 2nd episode of ICONS, presented by ISSIMI, automotive journalist Jason Cammisa puts the 2020 Shelby GT500 into perspective by comparing it against the benchmarks — the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS (991.2), and the quickest-accelerating, front-engine, rear-drive car of all time, the magnificent Ferrari 812 Superfast, the .

Jason also drives a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500 to teach us about the original Shelby Cobra homologation Mustangs and where the GT350 name comes from . And what the GT500 name doesn't mean.

Guest appearances include SCCA Hall-of-Fame race-car driver Randy Pobst (henceforth known as The Stick), Jason’s Camero-enthusiast Cousin Bob alter-ego, automotive expert / “Carmudgeon” Derek Tam-Scott, and Lisa, the most beautiful flag girl to ever get fired on the spot. Oh, plus the world’s silliest Top Gear spoof of Jeremy Clarkson’s Stig intro.

This 20-minute, full-length UHD 4K review of the GT500 is action packed with quarter-mile drag races, lap challenges around Chuckwalla Valley Raceway, and all the comedy you came to expect from Jason. With all the insights you crave.

In other words, we think it’s the best GT500 review. In the world. Ever.

Don’t forget to check out ISSIMI’s YouTube channel for the side-by-side POV onboard videos of Randy Pobst lapping the GT500 and GT3 RS around Chuckwalla Valley Raceway.

    Legendary Car, Legendary Presenter, Legendary film. Great work everyone. Also, it was so great to see Randy and Jason on camera together again, but it was totally overshadowed by the appearance of COUSIN BOB.
  • @MegaMymusiclist
    Man this episode has balls. I freaked out when GT3RS came up.
  • @idontneedthis66
    The camerawork alone gives this video 100 likes, good GOD it was that good! Those panning rear shots of the 500 going through the corners were amazing.
  • @10Tenths
    Jason Cammisa and Randy Pobst are the car duo I never thought I needed!

    Probably one of the most memorable quotes in the car industry. "My name's Carroll Shelby and performance is my business."

    I bet Jason writes all of these review episodes all by himself. This guy is not just an automotive genius, but also a master-class story teller. One of my favorite automotive journalists of all time. Thank you for doing this boss.

    For someone who lives on YouTube car stuff all day and all night, this is hands down one of the best videos I have seen in recent times!
  • @TotallyNotASpy1
    I swear, the moment Randy showed up in his 911 gave me some serious goosebumps. I need more of Jason and Randy, the chemistry between these two is intoxicating!

  • @MDSkai
    This is by far the cleanest, and most smile inducing video I’ve watched in a very long time. Talk about chills, more people need to see this

  • @FrldyZX87
    Good to have Jason back. I knew he would be awesome but I was not expecting the production quality to be so high! The camera quality and editing is up there with Top Gear!
  • @Drumsetkid23
    Man I forgot about how much I liked Jason. Motor Trend you can eat your heart out! This is just excellent video journalism!
