Today we give you a track-ready pony car -- this 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350.

There are 91,500 miles on this car and while Ford built the GT350 as a track-attack car, this particular one has not been tracked.

It appears the car has been well maintained and there have been no major accidents, just a minor parking-lot bang up.

The car has a full wrap and a Shelby GT350R spoiler.

According to the seller, the high mileage is because the car is a daily driver, but again it appears to be well maintained and never tracked.

The asking price is $40,000. Click here to check it out.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

The decoration on these is as tacky as I've ever seen on a GT350. Those quarter-window fake scoops are an affront to humanity and the only thing the tint on the lights accomplishes is to reduce safety. Makes me question the owner's judgment on other things too.

I would love to own a GT350, but not this one.

Not a fan of the wrap, especially since it's probably hiding some paint issues. However, it's a good sign that he's being honest about the damage and status of the paint. Mechanically should be fine, owner states he has a full record of the maintenance and went by the book on it. Given this was a DD with the accompanying wear and tear, $40k is fair assuming he can produce the maintenance receipts.

Nice Price.

Lorenzo This car would have sold better if there was a kit to put fiberglass toast slices on the roof.
Lorenzo The Malibu is close to what the 1955 Bel Air was, but 6 inches shorter in height, and 3 inches shorter in wheelbase, the former making it much more difficult to get into or out of. Grandma has to sit in front (groan) and she'll still have trouble getting in and out.The '55s had long options lists, but didn't include a 91 cubic inch four with a turbo, or a continuously variable transmission. Metal and decent fabric were replaced by cheap plastic too. The 1955 price was $1765 base, or $20,600 adjusted for inflation, but could be optioned up to $3,000 +/-, or $36,000, so in the same ballpark.The fuel economy, handling, and reliability are improved, but that's about it. Other than the fact that it means one fewer sedan available, there's no reason to be sorry it's being discontinued. Put the 1955 body on it and it'll sell like hotcakes, though.
Calrson Fan We are already seeing multiple manufacturers steering away from EVs to Hybrids & PHEVs. Suspect the market will follow. Battery tech isn't anywhere close to where it needs to be for EV's to replace ICE's. Neither is the electrical grid or charging infrastructure. PHEV's still have the drawback that if you can't charge at home your not a potential customer. I've heard stories of people with Volts that never charge them but that's a unique kind of stupidity. If you can't or don't want to charge your PHEV then just get a hybrid.
AZFelix The last time I missed the Malibu was when one swerved into my lane and I had to brake hard to avoid a collision. 1 out of 5⭐️. Do not recommend.
2ACL I won't miss it; it was decent at launch, but in addition to the bad packaging, GM did little to keep it relevant in the segment. I'd prefer that another domestic automaker doesn't just give up on the mainstream sedan, but unlike some of Ford's swan songs, the Malibu made an indifferent case for why they should live.
