Passion for performance
 

At Ford, we’re committed to engineering the best performance vehicles possible. That commitment dates back to 1901 when Henry Ford and a small team of engineers developed a race car called “Sweepstakes”. It featured innovations such as mechanical fuel injection and insulated spark plugs – those breakthroughs helped Henry win the one and only race in which he ever competed.  He used the notoriety - and winnings - of that win to start Ford Motor Company eventually.

2020 MUSTANG SHELBY GT350®
The Shelby GT350® offers precision-tuned suspension and handling that’s perfect when your idea of fun is rather twisted. The upgraded MagneRide® Damping System monitors and adjusts itself one thousand times per second. The entire car was designed, engineered and built so that the springs, sway bars and dampers work together as one finely tuned unit. We also added lightweight chassis components and, for 2020, a set of Michelin® Pilot® Sport Cup 2 tires with a Shelby GT350-specific tread pattern.

2020 MUSTANG SHELBY® GT500®

Shelby GT500® is the most powerful street-legal Ford vehicle of all time. It combines a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 engine and a TREMEC 7-speed transmission for awe-inspiring power. The GT500 was designed with fighter jets in mind — resulting in a precise and aerodynamic exterior and a top speed of 186 mph. With an ergonomic build and superior powertrain, the GT500 takes performance to new heights as the fastest Mustang ever on a straight line and around curves.
