happen to be viewing this 2018 Shelby GT350 R on a website other
than our Garage Kept Motors site, it's possible that you've only
seen some of our many photographs of the car due to third-party
website limitations. To be sure you access all the more than 155
photographs, as well as a short start-up and walk-around video, and
a link to its accident and damage-free Carfax history, please go to

this car is a crazy bargain... �€" Doug Demuro, June 2017 Demuro
continued: The funny thing is, I've read a few reviews of this car,
and they all say amazing things, as if the car is one of those
child prodigies that masters the flute by age 4 and graduates from
college by age 9. So I was expecting it to be good, but I was also
expecting those reviews to be a little bit fluff.... But no. The
reviews are good because the car is simply amazing. It's honestly
hard to describe how good this car is, except to say that few
vehicles I've driven have made me feel more confident, more secure
and more certain that I could read every single move the car was
about to make, and it, too, could perfectly respond to all of my
moves. The transmission and gear-selector action is absolutely
incredible in the sense that they move with precision, exactly how
you'd design a gear selector if you were making the perfect
performance car. The steering is precise, the chassis feels like a
true sports car's, and somehow, in some way, they made this thing
handle on the very best level of every high-end sports car I've
ever driven in my life. Offered here is a 2018 Shelby GT350 R in
Magnetic Gray over black. The car's standard R equipment includes:
Voodoo 5.2L/526 HP DOHC 32V V-8 engine 429 lb-ft of torque 6-speed
manual transmission Cold air intake Flat plane crankshaft 3.73
Torsen® limited slip differential Oil coolers for engine,
transmission, and differential Brembo disc brakes Electronic
adaptive MagneRide® suspension Ebony interior with Red accents
Carbon fiber rear wing 19 Inch carbon fiber wheels In addition,
this car received a documented replacement engine from Ford in July
of 2021. At that time, the Carfax buyback alert was entered on the
report. No damage of any sort to the car occurred or was recorded
at that time. In all, the car's digital odometer shows 6205 miles.
The car's Magnetic Gray metallic paint is unblemished, uniformly
glossy, and perfectly appropriate for a Shelby creation. The twin,
over-the-top, matte-black-with-thin-red-trim racing stripes harken
to the Shelby Mustangs of old. (To best assess the quality of the
paint and trim finishes, please be sure to view the close-up
photographs of the car in the accompanying gallery.) All trim
(including the front Shelby-branded splitter spoiler) is free of
wear; all emblems (including the red Shelby cobra emblems front and
rear, and GT350 fender emblems) are in their factory-applied
locations. Gloss-black-painted, 19-inch, 7-spoke
carbon-fibe-composite wheels are mounted with Michelin 303/30
performance tires. Red-painted Brembo®-branded brake calipers and
cross-drilled rotors are easily visible through the open-wheel
design. The Shelby's exterior paint work has been professionally
ceramic-coated. This GT350 R could've just rolled out of a
Ford-dealer showroom. Inside, the same unblemished descriptor
applies to every surface, all executed in black with tasteful red
accents and brushed-metal enhancements. Recaro-branding in red
accents the black, very well-bolstered racing seats (with suede
inserts); red stitching and red R embroidery on the headrests add
more visual pop. Door-trim design echoes this look, including the
red accent stitch
