As the track-focused, ultra-performance version of the Ford’s new-generation Mustang, this 2018 Ford Shelby GT350R marks a quantum leap from its legendary 1960s namesake. Power is delivered by Ford’s renowned 5.2-liter Voodoo V-8 engine, equipped with a flat-plane crank, good for a Ferrari-worthy 8,000-rpm redline. Delivering an awesome, wailing exhaust note to match, this awesome powerplant is factory-rated at 526 HP and stands as the most powerful naturally aspirated production engine available from Ford to date. Delivering that power is a lightweight Tremec 3160 6-speed manual transmission and 3.73:1 Torsen® torque-sensing differential.
Other racing wizardry applied to the GT350R includes electric power steering with three driver-selectable modes, composite iron-aluminum brake rotors supplied by Germany’s SHW, and Brembo brake calipers. Formerly optional, the Code 920A Track Pack came standard on the 2018 GT350R, including the Magneride™ magnetic damping system, front shock-tower brace, higher-rate springs and oil coolers for the engine and transmission, plus a carbon-fiber rear wing and special lightweight carbon-fiber wheels mounting Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 ultra-performance tires. Magazine performance tests for the GT350R include a 3.9-second 0-to-60 mph time and 175 mph top speed.
Built during March 2018, this original Canadian-delivery GT350R is appropriately finished in new-for-2018 Lead Foot Gray paint. It is quite rare as one of only 107 cars sporting that stealthy paint color for the 2018 model year. Ebony leather upholstery features red accents. Desirable factory options include the $10,000 Equipment Group 920A option, including 19-inch lightweight carbon fiber wheels, the wheel locking kit, and special rear decklid spoiler. The $4,000 Electronics Package includes the digital AM/FM CD stereo system, Ford’s SYNC III system, dual zone A/C, a voice-activated touchscreen and navigation system, and a tire inflator and sealant kit. Capable of amazing all-around performance, this 2018 Ford Shelby GT350R is offered in excellent condition with just 26,056 kilometers (16,190 miles) at the time of writing. Ready to deliver an amazing drive, this 2018 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R is simply one of the world’s best modern performance cars – bar none.
