Used Car of the Day: 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350

Today's UCTOD is in a color combo that yours truly loves. It's a blue-with-white-racing-stripes 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350.


The seller asks $57K for a 5,500-mile car that obviously hasn't been driven much.

Given my own limited experience with manual-transmission GT350s, I hope the buyer gets out and drives it a bit more.

There aren't a lot of other details here, but we're guessing that a mostly-garaged, low-mileage, seven-year-old car is probably stock or close to it and has been well-maintained.

Give it a look here if you have a thing for Shelbys and the scratch needed to take this Utah-based car home.

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.

    In my opinion, he wants 15% to 20% too much. If I wanted the car, I'd offer him $50k and consider that generous.

    "I hope the buyer gets out and drives it a bit more."

    • I hope the seller learns to park. (The Stellantis parked next to it does not have the right shade of blue paint to match; the door ding is going to stand out.)

      Is this a Utah thing? Several of the vehicles in the first picture seem to be aiming to align the passenger side of the vehicle with the parking lot stripe.

      (Regardless, the Mustang parking job is a clear Fail.)

  • SCE to AUX Wow - just the thing for that special buyer with discriminating taste.
  • SCE to AUX I'd drive this. Corrected for inflation, this 25 Kicks is the same price as my 05 Scion xB. The xB had a Spartan interior and very light construction; this is much more car for the money.
  • MrIcky 100% a 'play stupid games, win stupid prizes' issue here.
  • Wolfwagen Am I the only one who thinks that this car should be saved and resto-moded with an early 2000's VTEC? Perhaps go a little crazy and swap in the power train from an S2000?
  • Ger65690267 Well, the TFL guys who have a Cybertruck with even more miles have noted their tires still look fine. They drive all sorts of terrain and situations, and they haven't seen the wear, which means that guy is running his truck probably rather hard more than he cares to admit.
