2021 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Adds Carbon Fiber, Flashy Colors
The most powerful Ford Mustang's new carbon-fiber handling package adds 20-inch carbon-fiber wheels.
Ford has added a carbon-fiber handling package, which includes 20-inch carbon fiber wheels, to the 2021 Mustang Shelby GT500.
Three new colors are also available: Grabber Yellow, Antimatter Blue, and Carbonized Gray Metallic.
The Mustang Shelby GT500 is powered by a 760-hp supercharged V-8.
For its second model year, Ford is giving the Mustang Shelby GT500, the most powerful production Ford yet, a new carbon-fiber handling package that adds 20-inch painted carbon-fiber wheels similar to those included in the more expensive carbon-fiber track package. The 2021 Mustang Shelby GT500 also is available in three new colors. It can be ordered now, priced starting at $74,095.
A handling package has already been offered on the Shelby GT500, though it only added a Gurney flap and splitter wickers and cost $1500. The new carbon-fiber handling package adds 20-inch painted carbon fiber wheels, adjustable strut top mounts, an oil catch can, and wheel locks for $10,000. The wheels are similar to the exposed carbon wheels included in the $18,500 carbon-fiber track package, which adds Recaro seats, an exposed carbon GT4 wing, and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber. Adjustable strut top mounts are also included here. The three new paint colors include Grabber Yellow (pictured above), Antimatter Blue, and Carbonized Gray Metallic.
