When the new Shelby GT350 was introduced last year, SCCA Club Racers let out a collective groan. The SCCA does not allow aftermarket supercharging or turbocharging to a factory motor, hence the supercharged GT350 was ineligible for SCCA competition. Shelby American is a big believer in the adage “win on Sunday, sell on Monday”, so they’ve announced a version of the GT350 that incorporates the original car’s suspension and braking upgrades, but leaves Ford’s 412 horsepower V8 untouched. The new car will be eligible for SCCA competition, and will even come in an automatic version for customers that prefer not to row their own gears.
The Shelby GT350 get a new front fascia, tail light trim, front splitter, rear deck lid fill and rear fascia. Ford Racing struts, sway bars and adjustable camber plates help dial in the handling, while six-piston front calipers and 14 inch rotors help with rapid deceleration. Customers can order a GT350 in any color combination they want, as long as it is white with Shelby Guardsman blue stripes. Want one? You’ll need to ship your 2011 Mustang GT to Shelby American in Las Vegas, where the SCCA-approved, naturally aspirated conversion will set you back an additional $26,995. Don’t care about SCCA competition and want the full-meal-deal GT350 with the blower? That will be $33,995 plus your donor Mustang GT.
A genuine American original returns. The 2011 Shelby GT350 delivers aggressive performance, exhilarating handling and exceptional craftsmanship. Today's Shelby American team fused advanced technology with sophisticated design to recreate the spirit, passion and performance that made this muscle car a legend. The all new GT350 remains true to the original, which raced its way to the Winners Circle in circuits across the country in 1965. The 45th anniversary edition represents the passion, ingenuity and energy of Carroll Shelby and his team of hot rodders.
