Ever since the first ultra-high-powered Mustang variant debuted nearly 60 years ago, the Shelby name has been synonymous with outfitting America's beloved pony car with world-class performance and a one-of-a-kind driving experience. Merging that storied heritage with a host of technological refinements that have come since, this 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Carbon Fiber Track Pack Heritage Edition represents the Mustang in an absolutely optimized form. And, as if it wasn't compelling enough on its own merits, it has logged a mere 524 miles - barely enough to venture far from the showroom floor!
As you'd expect given its lineage, the head-turning ability of this Shelby is beyond question. Its exterior is draped in Brittany Blue - a shade that seems to become more appealing every time you look at it. A white GT500 Heritage Edition Stripe runs from front to back and if you step up close, you'll find it's no aftermarket decal - it's painted on. Take a lap around the car and you'll see that an assemblage of carbon fiber accents provides a great contrast to the lighter shade of the paint. It's a tasteful addition - just enough to set this Shelby apart from the crowd, but not enough to detract from its magnetic presence. In back, the carbon fiber wing looming above the decklid hints at this pony's world class capabilities. A full body Paint Protection Film (PPF) has been added to protect this beauty from any stone chips or bug splatters you might encounter while on the road.
Climb inside and take your position behind the wheel and you'll be enveloped in one of the Recaro leather-trimmed Sport Seats that are positioned up front with their stylish Miko suede inserts. This top tier seating will supply all the lateral support you'll need as you put this Shelby through its paces. Take a look around the cockpit and you'll notice the distinctive carbon-fiber accents that come via the Track Pack Heritage Edition package, then direct your attention to the back and you'll spot the rear seat delete option that's been added to enhance the performance-centric driving experience while also eliminating some weight. In a car like this, you might never tire of hearing the throaty tone of the exhaust, but should that ever happen, you'll be all set with this Shelby's 9-speaker Sound System, which also includes an AM/FM Stereo, CD Player and HD Radio. A set of Smart-Charging USB ports also stand by to look after your electronics-charging needs.
Carrying the Shelby distinction brings plenty of cachet, but it also raises the bar on performance by quite a bit. Needless to say, this '22 soars over that bar with ease. Its 5.2-liter supercharged V8 yields an unbelievable 760 horsepower and 625 pound-feet of torque - numbers that put it in very select automotive company. The powerplant is mated to a Tremec 7-speed, dual clutch transmission that maximizes every bit of that output and offers smooth, precise shifts via both a twist knob gear selector and paddle shifters. This Shelby Mustang rides on stylish, exposed carbon fiber wheels that are wrapped with beefy, ultra-sticky 20" Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires - 305s up front and 315s in back. Take a closer look just beyond the carbon fiber wheels and you'll see contrasting red calipers that serve notice of the 2-piece Brembo brakes that are at all four corners to provide the stopping power this rocket on wheels needs.
If you're looking for an absolutely stellar driving experience that comes via one of the most iconic names in American automotive performance, you'll definitely want to check out this 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Carbon Fiber Track Pack Heritage Edition. Call today!
