2012 Shelby GTS - Click above for high-res image gallery
Designated as the spiritual successor of the Shelby GT (http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/13/officially-official-2008-ford-shelby-gt/) that was built from 2007 to 2008, the new GTS represents the base model in the Shelby (http://autoblog.com/tag/shelby) lineup. According to company president John Luft, Shelby's average buyer is in their late '50s, and the iconic tuner hopes to bring in a younger crowd with a more affordable offering.
Available as a post-title package on both the Mustang GT (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/21/2011-ford-mustang-gt-coupe-and-convertible-review-road-test/) and the Mustang V6 (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/29/2011-ford-mustang-v6-first-drive/), the GTS includes a variety of upgrades including a Ford (http://autoblog.com/make/ford) Racing handling pack, Borla exhaust system, Baer brakes, unique front fascia, Le Mans stripes and a deep-draw hood. Optional components include superchargers for both the V6 and the V8, a Watts-link rear suspension system, upgraded brakes and more.
Pricing for the Shelby GTS starts at $9,995, not including the base car, which means a customer can get their hands on one for as little as $32,000. You can read more details about the Shelby GTS in the official PR after the jump (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/04/21/shelby-mustang-gts-new-york-2011/#continued).
