Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang Named Sports Car
Of The Year by Popular Mechanics Magazine
DEARBORN, Mich., March 23, 2016 –
Ford Shelby® GT350R Mustang, one of the most iconic performance nameplates
of all time, has been named Popular Mechanics Sports Car of the Year.
Popular Mechanics says the Shelby GT350R was selected from among a host of
contenders because it pushes the boundaries of what an American sports car
can be. Shelby GT350R’s unique, high-revving flat-plane crankshaft
5.2-liter V8 produces 526 horsepower and 429 lb.-ft. of torque – the most
powerful naturally aspirated Ford production engine ever for the most
track-capable, street-legal Mustang ever built.
