Shelby American proudly announces the return of a legend. Nearly six decades after Carroll Shelby first ignited the passion of performance enthusiasts with the original GT350, the iconic nameplate roars back to life for 2025, honoring a legacy of innovation, power, and pure American muscle.
Unveiled during the prestigious Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, the 2025 Shelby GT350 and GT350R are a bold statement of what it means to blend heritage with cutting-edge technology. These are the most powerful GT350 models ever created, setting a new benchmark for performance both on the road and the track.
The 2025 Shelby GT350: Street-Ready Excellence
Built upon the current Ford Mustang GT platform, the 2025 GT350 is available in two exhilarating configurations:
- 480 horsepower from a naturally aspirated 5.0L V8
- 810 horsepower from a supercharged version
With the option of a manual or automatic transmission, the GT350 offers flexibility for both purists and modern drivers. Shelby American has enhanced every aspect of the driving experience — from refined suspension tuning and aggressive aerodynamic elements to a performance exhaust system that delivers an unmistakable growl.
Starting at $109,995 (including the base Mustang GT), the 2025 Shelby GT350 promises a thrilling drive without compromising daily usability.
The 2025 Shelby GT350R: Track-Ready Dominance
For those who crave even more, the GT350R is a true race-bred machine. Pushing over 830 horsepower from its supercharged V8 engine, the GT350R is available exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission, offering a raw and connected driving experience.
