You Won’t Believe How Much Dealers Want For The Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang

Like the sun rising in the east and Taylor Swift singing breakup songs, so too does life’s certainties include car dealers trying to squeeze huge profits off hot models. The latest example: the Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, which has spawned a level of price gouging not seen since the heyday of the Hellcat.

Built as the top performer in the Mustang line (for now) the GT350 and its 526-hp V-8 is a glorious machine well worth some drooling. At a base price of $48,000 for the GT350 or $61,000 for the track-prepped GT350R, the amount of performance and enjoyment comes close to vehicles at twice the price—which is one reason why a couple of dealers are asking for more than twice as much.
