Ford Extends Shelby GT350 and GT350R Mustang Availability to 2018 Model Year
In honor of National Mustang Day, Ford announces the Shelby GT350 and Shelby GT350R Mustang will return for 2018. This is good news for Mustang enthusiasts who haven’t had the chance to purchase the latest Shelby Mustang.
The new models will feature the same powertrain and suspension as the 2017 versions, however, Ford will offer three new exterior color choices, Orange Fury, Kona Blue and Lead Foot Gray.
Standard equipment carrying over to the 2018 Shelby GT350 and GT350R Mustang includes the high-winding “Voodoo” 5.2-liter V8 engine, which produces 526 horsepower and 429 lb.-ft. of torque, as well as engine oil, transmission and differential coolers to keep the car properly cooled while on the track. In addition, a no-compromise braking system with vented 15.5-inch two-piece front rotors and six-piston Brembo calipers along with the MagneRide™ damping system round out the standard equipment to produce the most balanced Mustang ever.
An available Electronics Package for both models includes SYNC® 3, voice-activated navigation and nine-speaker audio system. An available Convenience Package for GT350 models replaces Recaro® manual seats with six-way power, heated and cooled sport seats with Miko® suede inserts for both driver and passenger.
Of course, Mustang GT and EcoBoost owners looking for GT350 performance can turn to Brothersperformance.com for an endless list of aftermarket items. Brothers Performance offers everything from cold-air kits and exhaust systems to blowers, gears and tunes to enhance your power, handling and braking.
