A special edition 2023 Mustang GT is being released by Shelby American to mark the 100th birthday of its creator, Carroll Shelby. The car
will be supercharged to produce 750 horsepower and will feature a Borla
cat-back exhaust system. Only 100 of these centennial edition Mustangs will be
made, and unfortunately, all of them have already sold out just four days after
the prototype was displayed in Gardena, California.
With this special edition Mustang, Shelby American is providing customers with a range of options. Customers have the option of either a manual or automatic transmission and a fastback or convertible body type. However, the company
will not allow any non-stock Mustang colors, Mach 1, or California Special
models to be used as donor cars. As long as the badging reads "GT"
and the title says 2023, the car is eligible.
The
upgrades on this Mustang go beyond just a boost in horsepower figures. The
front fenders have been widened, the stock wheels have been replaced with 20 x
11 Shelby wheels, and the stock rubber has been swapped for 305/30/20 Michelin
Pilot Sport 4 S performance tires, providing much more grip. The Shelby vented
hood increases airflow, while the Shelby Performance Radiator handles cooling.
The suspension has also been redone, adding performance anti-roll bars and
springs, as well as adjustable camber and caster plates. Additionally, donor
cars that show up without the Ford Performance Pack get Performance Pack brakes
for the front axle.
Visually, Shelby American has left no detail untouched. The Shelby name and logo can be found on various parts of the car, including the wheels, upper grile, doorsill plates, floor mats, top of the hood, and more. The Shelby silhouette can also be found in multiple places, including the hood, headrests, and rear badge. To further honor the late legend, each customer who was quick enough to place an order also receives a special black Stetson hat and a copy of the Shelby Centennial Book published by Team Shelby. The package price for the Mustang starts at $49,995, which does not include the price of the donor car.
In conclusion, Shelby American is introducing a limited-edition 2023 Mustang GT to commemorate the 100th birthday of its founder, Carroll Shelby. The car will have a Borla cat-back exhaust system and a 750 horsepower supercharger. These Centennial Edition Mustangs will only be produced in 100 pieces. and unfortunately, all of them have already sold out.
