There are Mustang enthusiasts who sometimes have a ride on the lanes, and therefore need a car that meets our daily routines and still has the muscle to stop our research when they hit. Well, that's where the Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 was created for.
Then there are those who every weekend will feel a sense of clues and still drive home through the streets of the city, we stab our muscle cars on the street, as if we owned the city. ). If you are in a class of this type, you are covered by the new Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford Mustang. The GT350R is specially designed for the track, but still legal on the streets. Read on to find out what the "R" adds to the already excellent GT350:
2017 FORD MUSTANG SHELBY GT350R exterior and interior
Unlike the Mustang GT350 standard in 2017, the GT350R exterior is optimized for higher performance. For starters, the vehicle received a redesigned front divider and a massive carbon fiber rear spoiler that improves downforce. The rear spoiler helps to improve the balance between power and lift. On the sides you actually see are red remkalenders that are useful when the monster stops.
Unlike the standard model it is offered with different performance features as options before Ford decided to make the standard for upcoming models, all of them are available on the GT350R as standard. They include a rear spoiler, front suspension springs, tower-clamp aluminum strut, Magne Ride (adaptive dampers) and differential coolers.
The 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R mounts on a set of 19-inch carbon fiber wheels, which is rare even in the more expensive luxury cars. In the front, sport GT350R between 19 and 11-inch wheels and 19- to 11.5-inch wheels at the rear. The wheels are covered with ultra-sticky Michelin sports tires.
Inside the vehicle has leather wheels, which have a red dowel pin. The steering wheel is covered in leather and features red stripes. Red stripe can also be seen in the credentialing and striping of the vehicle through color races. Do not expect the comfort functions and technical devices that are used in your regular carrier; The GT350R is stripped to the bare minimum to reduce space and improve runway performance.
To begin with the rear seats are discarded and without loading floor. Do not expect even a / c or a radio in the car. This car has been deliberately designed for competition and the previous features give weight to cause distractions and during the race when the driver has to concentrate on maneuvering the vehicle.
Even the GT350R has no rear camera, so if you're the type of person who can not operate without a security camera, then this is not the type of car, try the standard GT350, which contains more technical, including control tools.
However, if you buy the GT350R and after a short period of time you feel you can not live without the discarded features, you can still get by choosing an electronic package a $ 3,000 restart. In addition to the rear view camera and a radio, the package adds additional measurement lists, a tire inflator, carpets and a verzegelingskit now.
Engine and Performance
2017 GT350R has the same engine as its GT350 brother. The mill I'm talking about is a 5.2L V-8 engine with 526 horsepower and 429 pounds of torque can produce. The engine kneels all these vigor without using a turbocharger or a compressor. This demonstrates the excellent craftsmanship that Ford used to make this engine.
The engine is coupled to a 6-speed manual gearbox, which drives the rear wheels. In addition, the gearbox features unique 3.73 Ford: 1Torsen limited slip differential. The engine is also equipped with special oil radiators.
Due to its lighter weight and more performance characteristics, the GT350R will be faster than the standard GT350. While official performance information has not yet come out, it has rumors that it could reach the standard GT350 from around 3.5 seconds to 60 mph from stopped. If this is true, we expect the GT350R to perform the same course in less than 3.5 seconds, making it the fastest vehicle to be harvested naturally on the ground. The automaker has also parked the exhaust system of the four-pronged vehicle to produce a new sound that is different from what we are accustomed to. The exhaust sound is close to the sound produced by Ferrari models.
PRICE AND DATE OF REGISTRATION
Ford has not announced the official price for the 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R. We do not expect the price to be very different from that of current models. At this time the standard starts in 2016 at $ 48 695, while the GT350 R $ 13,500 add to raise its price to $ 62,195. The addition of optional features such as a black painted ceiling adds $ 695, while a yellow paint will cost $ 495, $ 475 for the 'over the top' racing stripes and $ 375 for a special car package. When selecting the options, the price costs more than $ 68,000.
Ford produces limited units of this model. Last year Ford produced only 37 units of the GT350R. It is unclear how many models this year will produce, but you can, however, use them less than 50. But if you are not lost GT350R, you can still choose your brother the GT350 which comes with a similar engine and features almost similar. In fact, the 2017 GT350 with standard performance properties, so it is closer tilted on its brother performance. The models come in June of this year in the showrooms.
