We brought back the GT350 45 years after it was launched, said Carroll Shelby.

They look and sound just like the ones we built in 1965. We're repeating history by offering two additional colors for the second year of production.

Shelby GT350 is a post-title program based on the Mustang GT and its 412-horsepower 5.0-liter engine.

Buyers purchase the Mustang from their favorite Ford dealer, basing the order on Shelby American's specifications, then it's drop-shopped (Ford order code 99wkh7) to the Shelby headquarters in Las Vegas for the upfit to a GT350.

Buyers can choose 430 hp normally-aspirated, 525 hp supercharged, or a specially-tuned supercharged version for 624 hp, which voids the drivetrain warranty. Supercharged cars come with the sixspeed manual only while naturally-aspirated GT350s are available with either the manual or the six-speed automatic.

The car goes into Shelby American as a Mustang GT and comes out the other side as a GT350 with a unique front fascia and hood, performance suspension, Baer front brakes, center-exit Borla exhaust, 19-inch Cragar wheels with Goodyear performance tires, and plenty of Shelby GT350 logos and badging.

When it comes to performance of the current generation GT350, our team did a great job right out of the gate, quipped Gary Patterson, vice president of operations at Shelby American.

The GT350 leaves its mark on the street that says a Shelby was here.

True.  Lot of fun and feel more balanced with the 5.0L than the 5.8L of th GT500. The 66 and 11 GT350s sit together and make the garage look faster with all the stripes.  I never have tried posting pics but make take on the challenge.
Just nuts.
