Shelby GT: A Retail Version of the Ford GT-H

The new Shelby GT will go on sale in January as the newest member of the Mustang performance car stable.

The 4.6-liter, 325-horsepower Ford Shelby GT will occupy a niche between the Mustang GT and the Ford Shelby GT500 both in terms of performance and appearance. It is a retail version of the Ford GT-H – the Shelby and Ford Racing-prepared Mustang developed for Hertz that was the surprise hit of the 2006 New York International Auto Show.

Ford will reveal full product details this Sunday on its “Bold Moves: The Future of Ford” web-based documentary (www.fordboldmoves.com).
