Shelby American is about to celebrate its first 50 years of history, and to celebrate the event properly they have presented three special Anniversary Limited Edition Ford Mustang models: the GTS, the GT350 and the staggering Shelby GT500 Super Snake. “Few thought that Shelby American would make it in the car business for 50 years“, said founder Carroll Shelby, “We built the first Cobra in a rented garage and then GT350’s in an old hanger. But our company is still here, manufacturing the best cars that I’ve ever made.” All three models will be produced in a series of 100 units - 50 black and 50 white cars for each model - which will come with an exclusive set of dedicated golden decals.

Needless to say, the three models will get some extra horses under the bonnet, too. The GT500 Super Snake will be available as a coupe or convertible in power steps of 650, 750 and 800 hp. Based on the Ford Shelby GT500, this anniversary package begins at 59,995 $, not inclusive of the price of the base car. La GT 350 uses LeMans racing stripes and is based on Ford Mustang GT 5.0. This model too will be available in three power configurations (430, 525 and 624 hp) and with coupe and cabrio body types. Those who will choose the GTS will also be given the chance to choose between two engine options: a 3.7-litre V6 3.7 or the new naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V8.
