This 2017 GT350 is like no other Mustang or Shelby produced. It’s high-revving motor, independent rear, and magnetic suspension have created a Mustang that is now capable of a European sports car driving experience. With a 5.2L flat-plane crank that makes its peak power at the top of its 8,200 RPM rev range and a chassis that keeps the Mustang firmly planted to the pavement, it’s a car that any enthusiast from any background can appreciate. If you’re looking for a car that is a spectacular driver’s car, this 2017 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350 is it!

BODYWORK/TRIM

On the outside, the GT350 is designed for functionality. Engineers and designers worked together to ensure every panel of the vehicle not only looked great, but was effective as well. For starters, the front track was widened, resulting in wider fenders that allowed for heat extraction vents for the engine bay. The front grille surround is claimed to actually increase the GT350’s rigidity. A hood vent extracts more heat from the high-revving powerplant, while a small scoop by the driver’s side headlight feeds it fresh air via a sealed air box. The lower portions of the front fascia include cooling ducts for the front brakes, as well as air passage to the transmission and oil coolers. And at the rear, a small spoiler creates some appreciated downforce at high speeds, meanwhile the rear diffuser and belly pan direct air past an air-to-oil differential cooler. All this amazing design is layered in a liquid-smooth coat of Ruby Red Metallic with a Black/White racing stripe that stretches the full length of the car.

ENGINE/DRIVETRAIN

The heart of this track beast is the aforementioned, award-winning 5.2 liter V8, code-named “Voodoo”. By utilizing a flat-plane crankshaft, the Voodoo V8 propels the 3,760 lb coupe with 526 horsepower and 429 lb/ft of torque. Mated to a Tremec 6-speed manual, a buyer’s’ only option for 2017, the GT350 bursts to 60 mph in nearly 4 seconds and approaches 120 mph at the end of a 1/4 mile! But most of the fun comes out at the local road course or your favorite twisty road where the MagneRide adaptive suspension makes constant calculations to keep the tires firmly planted around corners. When combined with the independent rear suspension and large two-piece rotors clamped by massive Brembo calipers, the package is a remarkable driving experience usually reserved for high-end European sports cars. The fruits of labor are rewarded through the Michellin Pilot Supersports measuring 295/35ZR19 up front and 305/35ZR19 out back.

INTERIOR

Open the doors and hunker down into a cockpit that affirms you’re in something special. A black, leather and suede interior bolsters all four passengers with heated and cooled, power-adjustable buckets up front. You’ll find traditional telemetry forward of the driver, with an oil pressure and oil temp gauge sitting front and center of the dash while a traditional Shelby dash plaque sits above the glovebox. Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system tops A/C controls and toggle switches for the exhaust modes, launch control, and traction control. And the driver pilots the GT350 through a suede and leather-wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel and 6-speed shifter.
