Ford extends production run of Shelby GT350, GT350R for one more year

Ford Motor Co. has confirmed that it will include the Shelby GT350 and GT350RMustangs as part of its 2018 model year lineup. Along with the extra year of production, GT350s will be available in three new colors. Buyers can coat their cars in Orange Fury, Kona Blue, or Lead Foot Gray. The first two are also available on EcoBoost and GT Mustangs. No pricing has been released for the 2018 model year.

Unlike those more pedestrian GT350, the GT350 receive no other changes for 2018. So you won’t be seeing a more aggressive version of the 2018 Mustang’s new nose and tail, nor its nifty LCD instrument panel. Of course, it’s not like the GT350 was in dire need of an upgrade, with its amazing 525-horsepower, flat-plane-crank V8. Read more
