Vehicle Description
This 2018 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 was part of a true performance
revolution. It's the kind of car that reset the bar for Mustangs,
American cars, and exotics around the globe. So you just know we
will someday hold this in the same esteem as the original Shelby
GT350. And now that Ford has finished this chapter, it has sent
collectors looking for prime ultra-low mileage examples like this.
So just to understand, it's like Ford dunked the whole car in
performance awesome sauce, and this is your fleeting chance at one
that still has the new car smell.
Orange Fury Metallic is the paint. This optional color sets the
right attitude by both its name and its vibrancy. After all, with
less than 2,700 miles on the odometer, you know this one-owner
coupe did not come out for the garage to play very often. Against
this bold color is a terrific blackout accent package with the
special 19-inch wheels, full aerodynamic body kit, full width rear
spoiler, rear valance, and optional black roof. And of course, we
all instantly notice the black racing stripes. It was another
optional extra, and they were worth every penny because they are a
constant reminder of how track-ready this car always is.
More of that irresistible darkness continues inside. But where the
exterior was about performance, there's also luxury added in here,
too. This is loaded with features like leather upholstery, power
front seats, power windows, power locks, keyless entry/ignition,
dual front airbags, side airbags, cruise control, power steering,
and dual-zone automatic A/C climate control. This was optioned with
the Technology Package, and that means the touchscreen infotainment
system is your command center for the AM/FM/CD/XM stereo, backup
camera, Bluetooth, and satellite navigation. An Alcantara-wrapped
steering wheel has the feel of a purebred racecar, the top of the
dash is dominated by the essential dials, and the shifter is where
you always want your right hand to be. And just in case you forget
how special this car is, there's an individually numbered plaque
above the glovebox.
The 5.2-liter fuel-injected V8 is a hand-built engine. So just like
the best exotic cars from Europe, Ford was able to have a signature
plaque from the person who built it. Ford needed to figure out a
way to make sure we all knew this powerhouse was an unstoppable
force of the universe, and so they called it the Voodoo motor. The
flat plane crankshaft design allows this one to be a strong revving
machine, and the 526 horsepower is the most powerful naturally
aspirated motor Ford has ever unleashed on the streets. Best of
all, the six-speed manual transmission puts the power firmly in
your hands. The MagneRide damping, Torsen rear differential,
Michelin Pilot Sport tires, and the fully independent suspension
all come together to make an awesome car that knows how to stick to
your favorite blacktop like glue. And the Brembo four-wheel discs
brakes bring all the action quickly to a halt.
Because this is a car for collecting, the sale comes with the right
documentation, including the original window sticker, dealer
invoice, and owner's manual packet. It's all part of an
irresistible packaging that will make you remember the car today,
and only regret it if you don't take it home tomorrow.
