Not that you will watch the Need For Speed movie for its plot, but Carroll Shelby Licensing ash been working with DreamWorks Studios and Ford Motor Company, providing priceless vintage images and historically accurate facts during the film’s production to add to the depth of the story.
As for the Shelby Mustang hero car, it features a Shelby-inspired wide body package, 22-inch alloy wheels, a larger lower grille with new air intakes, extended rocker panels, low-profile mirrors and a twin-snorkel hood. It sports custom silver paint with Kona Blue racing stripes. Power comes from a modified 5.8 liter V8 engine.
