The Shelby FP350S is essentially a Mustang, given all the racing specifications. It has a 5.2-liter V8 fitted with a custom exhaust. It also has an enhanced oil pan and oil color, and features a Tremec 3160 six-speed manual transmission with an integral oil pump. The final rear drive ratio is 3.73. It’s worth noting that the unibody is strengthened with additional seam welding and an FIA-approved, six-point roll cage.
Externally, the machine has a Ford Performance splitter and a carbon-fiber adjustable rear wing. An optional Shelby FP350S custom graphics package is expected to be offered.
The full specifications can be found below.

Here's the updated LINK. http://www.foxnews.com/auto/2016/12/09/will-soon-be-able-to-buy-track-only-shelby-mustang-from-your-ford-dealer.html


Looks like an ADDITIONAL 9K for the Forgeline wheels pictured. Yikes!

No VIN, has a Serial Number = Track Only and you'd be a BALL-o-Flames trying to reach this car's potential on a Back Road. LOL :)
