2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 R Heritage Edition

Description

This 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R is a nearly zero-miles example is a special Heritage Edition that pays tribute to the 55th anniversary of the original GT350. But while it remembers it's history, this is one of the most modern track machines ever with a hand-built 520+ horsepower sweet V8. And more than just the motor, Ford built a true performance package all-around this coupe. So dig into the details on one of the most impressive pure sports machines around.

The original Shelby Mustang was a car that loved the track as much as it loved the street. And the Shelby GT350R follows that tradition so well it can wear the color theme with pride. That's why we love seeing this built with Wimbledon White with Guardsman Blue side and over-the-top race stripes. Only the special Heritage Edition gets to correctly wear this full package. There are even exclusive badges done in the famous blue. And the mileage on the odometer is just enough to get it from Ford to our showroom, so you will be the first one to fully take it out of its wrapper. In fact, since Ford has ended the GT350 production, you may just want to leave this on in its brand-new condition for collectability. But really, we know you won't be able to resist adding some miles to this, because after all, it's one of the best modern sports cars around. As with a well-designed speed machine the devil is in the details. There are some great contrasting pieces to the white, like the full aerodynamic body kit, full width rear spoiler, rear valance, blacked-out rear panel, and the 19-inch carbon fiber wheels.

The interior is a terrific blend of art and speed. You see it in places like the black Recaro suede-like bucket seats with red stitching and the matching steering wheel. This is loaded with features like power windows, power locks, keyless entry/ignition, dual front airbags, side airbags, and cruise control. The "R" in GT350R stands for racing. That means these don't come standard with some everyday conveniences. So you will be happy to see optional equipment on this one such as the AM/FM/CD/XM stereo with touchscreen interface for the backup camera and Bluetooth. And the dual-zone automatic climate control was also another crucial piece that was optioned back into this example. Of course, this still keeps its proper race diet and eliminates the back seat.

The fuel-injected 5.2-liter V8 is a very special powerplant. These are hand-built units for the Shelby, and so Ford takes the same kind of care as AMG does with special Mercedes-Benzes. They call it their Voodoo motor, and the flat plane crankshaft ensures it has its own kind of magic. It's a 526 horsepower monster that loves to fire up with gusto, and there's even an adjustable exhaust note to really let you take in its full glory. So while this one has a stereo, you may never even turn it on. More than just a hypnotic motor, Ford built the R model for true racing. These come standard with magnetic ride control that instantly adjusts the fully independent suspension to all conditions. The six-speed manual transmission gives you full control as it sends the power to the desirable Torsen rear differential. The Brembo four-wheel discs brakes, power steering, and Michelin Pilot Sport tires complete a package designed to deliver awesome grip.

The sale comes with the original window sticker, dealer invoice, factory buildsheet, warranty card, bill of sale, service manuals, and owner's manual packet. Everything is so fresh, you can still feel the ink grooves on the factory suspension decals. So if you want an instant collectable that has yet to even see a rough piece of pavement, you don't want to miss this special deal. Call now!
