Ford Motor Company will return to the top level of prototype sports car racing in 2027. The automaker will be back in the World Endurance Championship series with a factory team that will compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Shelby American's new GT350 and GT350R celebrate 60 years of the original GT350R, which debuted on January 27, 1965, while jumpstarting a new Trans Am racing program.

For those eagerly waiting for Shelby to have a go at the seventh generation Mustang, wait no longer: the GT350 is back along with the street-legal track attack GT350R, making 810 and 830 horsepower

Muscle-car fans should remember the last Shelby GT350, which was produced by Ford, because it featured a flat-plane crank V8 that could rev all the way to 8,250rpm – something no Mustang before could handle. This time, however, the new GT350 models will be built by Shelby American.

If you were bummed out that you can’t buy a Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 from the Ford dealership anymore, then we have some good news for you. The GT350 is back, but now its being offered directly from Shelby American rather than Ford Performance. If you want one in your driveway, however, be ready to drop some serious coin.
