After being revealed at Barrett Jackson in 2010 as a celebration of the original 1965 Shelby GT350?s 45th anniversary, the 2012 GT350 made its world debut at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show.
The GT350 model is based on the most current Ford Mustang GT and is priced at $26,995.00 (normally aspirated) and $33,995.00 (supercharged). The price, however, doesn’t include the base car which will tack on another $22,000 - $40,000 depending on your preferences.
A convertible version is a welcomed change for 2012 considering the last convertible to be offered was back in 1970. Red and blue will also get added to the list of exterior colors which will make the limited run of 350 models sell out as fast as water in the desert.
"Last year, we brought back the GT350 45 years after it was launched," said Carroll Shelby, founder of Shelby American. "They look and sound just like the ones we built in 1965. We?re repeating history by offering two additional colors and building a few convertibles for the second year of production."
