The Shelby GT package enhances all aspects of the Mustang GT’s performance. The supercharger, handling kit and upgraded half shafts come from Ford Racing Performance Parts. The 3.73 rear end is a factory upgrade. The wheels are sourced from WELD and the six-piston front brakes are Wilwoods.
Exterior upgrades include a hood with functional air vents, a two-piece rear diffuser, carbon fiber exterior trim and Shelby-exclusive grille options. Customers can also choose from painted and unpainted exterior accessories in several different colors. A 700+HP performance upgrade, adjustable suspension, upgraded big brake kit, and a number of interior upgrades are also available.

“This 2015 Shelby GT incorporates all of the engineering lessons we’ve learned building high performance vehicles over the past 50 years,” said Joe Conway, co-CEO of Carroll Shelby International and CEO of Shelby American in a statement. “With the international distribution of the current Ford Mustang, we worked closely with our partners to develop a car that can be offered in both North America and overseas. It’s the first Shelby muscle car in our history designed from day one to be a truly global vehicle.”
Shelby is establishing “mod shops” all over the world to accommodate buyers who wish to purchase the Shelby GT package. The upgrades will set U.S. customers back at least $39,995 in addition to the cost of the car on which it will be based.
