Shelby GT Mustang Arrives For 2021 With Up To 700 HP, Can Be Ordered As A Standalone Package Too

Shelby American has released pricing details and technical specifications for the 2021 Shelby GT Mustang.

Anyone who owns a Ford Mustang from the 2018 model year onwards can head to Shelby American for the modifications or if they’d prefer, they can purchase a modified Mustang directly from Shelby itself. Pricing for the package starts at $24,995 while a fully-built Shelby GT is offered from $62,310.

From a visual standpoint, Shelby has equipped the Mustang GT with a unique hood that incorporates vents, staggered-width 20-inch wheels, Shelby-spec tires, a unique upper front grille, bespoke side rockers and rocker wings, a unique rear spoiler, Le Mans-style striping, driver and passenger side stripes, distinctive emblems and badges, leather seat covers, and embroidered floor mats.

Under the hood, Shelby has equipped the Mustang with a new Borla exhaust system, increasing power from the 5.0-liter naturally-aspirated V8 to 480 hp. If that’s not enough for customers, Shelby can also fit the V8 with a Ford Performance supercharger that increases power to 700 raging ponies.

A number of other performance upgrades have been made. For example, the Shelby GT includes new springs and sway bars co-developed with Ford Performance, although customers can also opt for a unique Penske track suspension system. Other optional extras include a Brembo brake upgrade that includes six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers and enlarged rotors. Ford Mustang GT Convertible models can also be fitted with the same Speedster roof as the flagship Shelby Super Snake.
