2012 Shelby GT350 Convertible

2012 Shelby GT350 Convertible

Damn, this February is helluva good for muscle car enthusiasts -  it already unveiled the 2012 Charger SRT8, 2012 ZL1 Camaro and, for the first time since 1970 – the all new 2012 Shelby GT350 Convertible.

The roofless Shelby comes in 3 different V8 engines: 320 kW [429 HP], 392 kW [526 HP] and 466 kW [625 HP] beast which has 75 HP more than the sensational-comeback ZL1. Of course, Shelby comes in a limited 350 unit production run. It isn’t hard to guess, huh? Well, this’ll make them worth the price tag for sure. Mustang comes with 2 brand new colors: Race Red and Kona Blue both having traditional Le Mans stripes. As Carroll said himself “we’re repeating history”.

Charger, Camaro, Mustang… What else? February, please, let it be something more about the 2013 Viper, please. Well, for now it is quite enough. Muscle car war isn’t over yet.
