2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Heritage Edition First Drive Review (Motor1)
Going out with style. Ford gives Mustang fans the colors they’ve been waiting for at the end of the line.
To normal folks, the 2020 Ford Shelby GT350 Heritage Edition is just a paint job. To Mustang people, though, the arrival of Wimbledon White and Guardsman Blue is a moment they've been waiting for since Ford reintroduced the GT350 badge. That’s right, fan service happens in the auto industry, too.
The reality is that the combo of Wimbledon White paint and Guardsman Blue stripes are about as important as liveries get to Ford. Mustang fans venerate this look. First introduced 55 years ago on the original GT350, Ford is officially rolling out the pairing for the first time in decades. But sadness tinges this celebration of heritage, as 2020 also marks the last year of production for the GT350. Obviously, a quick spin was in order. While the GT350 Heritage Edition is pretty much the same car underneath, the little things make this Mustang damn special.
