Now available at our PHILLY location is this beautiful 2006 Hertz
Mustang GT. This retired rent-a-racer racked up just 9600 miles
before being retired from rental duty. It now has 9859 total miles
making it one of the lowest mileage Hertz cars that we have seen.
There was a time in the late 1960s when $17/day would put you
behind the wheel of a genuine Shelby GT350H.They were available at
select locations across the country. There are endless tales of
GT350H's returning to the rental lots with worn tires, roll bar
mounts or holes in the floor, even entirely different engines. It's
hard to say how many of those stories are true but the cars became
known as Rent-A-Racers. The name stuck and the cars that survived
their rental duties intact are worth a mint today. To commemorate
these legendary cars, Shelby created the 2006 GT-H. Number 222 of
just 500 produced. It still has the original Pirelli Zero Nero
tires with 7-8 32nds tread remaining. They are practically new. The
2006 Mustang GT-H is sure to follow in the footsteps of the
GT350H.and climb in value as years' pass. If you missed out owning
one of the first Hertz cars, don't miss your chance at redemption!
This vehicle also includes the Shelby dash plate. Indicating that
this is number 222. It has never been installed on the car as the
original vinyl version is still in place. Also included is the
matching Shelby key tag with car id. This car also has the optional
Sirius tuner with Hertz logo. Lift the hood and you'll find one
Ford's venerable 4.6L modular motors. As a 2006 model, this is the
24V SOHC equipped with variable camshaft timing. These engines
turned out a respectable 300hp in stock trim but, of course,
nothing leaves Shelby without upgrades. For the GT-H, that comes in
the form of a Ford Racing Power Pack. First, the ECU is flashed for
a more aggressive timing curve. Next, breathing is made easy
through a 90mm cold air intake, free-flowing mufflers and an X-pipe
that replaces the more restrictive H-pipe. The upgrades add roughly
25hp and 10lb. ft. of torque. The engine fires up with ease and
sounds killer through the revised exhaust system. To view this 2006
