The new GT-H Mustang Convertible project is part of the Ford-Shelby GT-H ‘Rent-a-Racer’ program that was initiated in 2006. The new version of the Ford Mustang GTs will be soon available from the Hertz Fun Collection through their selected dealers at Arizona, California, Colorado, and Hawaii towards the end of the year.
The 2008 Convertible’s exterior appearance resembles the 2006 Shelby GT-H Mustang Coupe. However, the blackish exterior will be modified with the ‘Le Man’ sporty stripes and ‘Shelby GT-H’ rocker stripes. It will be provided with a unique hood and front fascia. The hood will feature the running horse emblem on a brushed aluminum grille. The front fascia will be featured with integrated lower grille and a set of body side scoops.
The 2008 Convertible will be powered with major engine modifications. The Power Pack offer from the Ford Racing Performance Group, combined with the Ford Racing Handling Pack will make the Ford-Shelby GT-H power train the best of its category sports cars. The 4.6L V-8 five-speed automatic transmission will yield a 319-horsepower output. Added to this engine features are the special-tuned dampers, lowering springs, sway bars and a strut tower base. The new rear axle assembly features an extra off-the-line acceleration.
Ford and Shelby will produce 500 units of the 2008 Convertible in the beginning exclusively for Hertz. Thus the muscular 2008 Convertible will offer a new sporting experience to the fans of Hertz and will open a new arena of thrilling racing experience.
