What you're looking at
The Super Snake-R is Shelby American's new track-focused flagship for the S650 Mustang: a supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 making over 850 horsepower, driven through a six-speed manual. The widebody wears functional carbon-fiber aero — front splitter, rear wing, and diffuser — over fully adjustable coil-over suspension and a chassis-stiffening system, with Shelby performance seats inside. Every car gets serialized badging and documentation in the official Shelby Registry, and this one is serial #3 of a run capped at 100. Shelby's launch price is $224,995 with the donor car included, and the giveaway page throws in SwissTrax modular flooring for a one-car garage.
Why it matters
Shelby's press materials describe a Whipple-blown Gen 4 Coyote on a Dark Horse donor, with 1,000-hp-rated axles, magnesium wheels, and 335-section rear rubber — this is the widebody halo above the standard Super Snake, which itself trades in the $130k–$200k band on the secondary market. With only 100 planned and none resold yet, the R has genuine scarcity behind the number. The honest math on the cash option: $150,000 all-in ($112,500 check plus $37,500 withheld for the IRS) is roughly $75k below the car's value, so the keys are the better trade if you can carry insurance and state taxes on a serialized 850-hp Shelby.
The fine print worth knowing
Entries are donations to New Beginning Children's Homes, Inc., a 501(c)(3) (Federal ID 27-5011514): $3 buys one ticket, with bulk tiers scaling to 7,200 tickets at $5,000. No donation is necessary — the mail-in route (one handwritten self-addressed stamped envelope to NBCH in Largo, FL) is spelled out in the official rules and receives the same bonus multipliers as the best paid offer at the time. The promotion runs through 11:59 p.m. Pacific on October 29, 2026, with the drawing on or about November 11, 2026. Open to the U.S. and Canada except Quebec, 18 and older. The $60,000 covers federal withholding only — state taxes and anything above are the winner's problem, and a happy one at that.

Our value estimate
$224,330
The official rules value the grand prize at $284,329.95 including $60,000 paid toward the winner's federal IRS withholding; backing out the cash leaves roughly $224,330 for the car itself, which lines up with Shelby American's published $224,995 launch price (donor car included) for the 100-unit Super Snake-R. The model is brand new, so no secondary-market Super Snake-R sales exist yet to comp against; the closest references are recent S650 Super Snake (non-R) results — a 352-mile 2025 car sold for $180,000 against a $168,865 MSRP, 2024–25 examples have traded between roughly $126,000 and $198,000, and new non-R 2026 Super Snakes list around $170,000–$174,000 at dealers — all of which supports a meaningful premium for the widebody 850-hp R. We anchor to the operator's own figure for the car, about $224,330, awarded as a new vehicle.
