To commemorate the 55th anniversary of the launch of the Mustang Shelby GT500, Ford Motor Company F is coming out with a heritage version of the high-performance variant of its Mustang model.
What To Know: Ford is unveiling a new, limited edition 2022 Mustang Shelby GT500 Heritage model. The first-generation Shelby GT500 was launched in 1967 by racer and entrepreneur Carroll Shelby by improvising on the Mustang GT350 model.
The Heritage Edition fastbacks will be finished in a classic and exclusive, Brittany Blue exterior paint with two different Wimbledon White exterior stripe options – painted over-the-top racing stripes with the GT500 logo and vinyl over-the-top racing striped with vinyl side stripe featuring the GT500 logo.
Its 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, race-bred control strategies and advanced drive modes deliver a car that performs unlike any other domestic sports coupe.
