Shelby launched the limited Series 1 in 1999. Only 249 examples were made of the sports car, with each one costing around $225,000. Nearly two decades have passed since the first Shelby American was introduced to the public. Shelby American decided to reintroduce the car to the public using a few monocoque chassis. This is the new Shelby Series 2.
Only four versions of this sports car are being made by hand. Underhood buyers have the option of either a Shelby-tuned, 427 FE engine, or a Ford-tuned, 427 Windsor motor.
