You Could Win This 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Plus $20K Cash

The S550 generation Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R is a truly unique and special machine that may never again be replicated – at least, in its high-revving, naturally-aspirated, flat-plane crank-equipped, track-focused form. Since its discontinuation, we’ve watched as the values of these last-generation GT350 and GT350R models have steadily risen as a result, and Shelby American just released its own, S650-generation version, too. However, Ford Authority readers now have the chance to bring home a stellar example of a 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R in a much more affordable manner, thanks to a new sweepstakes from TapKat. Better yet, we have a way for you to get more tickets, too (see below for details).

The S550 generation Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R is a truly special machine, and in this case, it has just 28 miles showing on the odometer, so it’s essentially in brand new condition. It’s finished in Shadow Black paint with the optional over-the-top white racing stripes, all of which has been covered in paint protection film. The pony car rolls on a set of black 19-inch carbon-fiber seven-spoke wheels wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires measuring 305/30 up front and 315/30 in the rear. S550 GT350R models came equipped with the MagneRide damping system and Brembo brakes, too.

Inside the cabin, one will find a pair of Ebony cloth Recaro sport seats up front with Miko suede and red accents, along with exposed carbon-fiber trim pieces. GT350R models came with a rear seat delete, and in this case, niceties such as the 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, dual-zone automatic climate control, an Alcantara steering wheel, and auxiliary gauges for monitoring things like oil pressure and temperature. Power comes from the naturally-aspirated 5.2L V8 Voodoo engine, a high-revving powerplant that churned out 526 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque from the factory. All S550 GT350Rs came exclusively with the Tremec TR-3160 six-speed manual transmission, which sends power back to the rear wheels via a Torsen limited-slip differential with 3.73 gears.

As if this amazing car wasn’t enough of a sweepstakes prize on its own accord, the lucky winner will also receive $20,000 in cash to help pay taxes. Even better, the money collected from the sweepstakes helps benefit the Shelby American Collection museum in Boulder, Colorado, which is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to preserving the history and achievements of Carroll Shelby and Shelby American. Those that wish to throw their name in the proverbial hat to win this special Shelby can do so by heading over here to secure their entries. Better yet, use promo code FORDAUTHORITY and score bonus entries – the more one donates, the more bonus entries one receives.

This sweepstakes is scheduled to end on August 24th, 2025, and a winner will be chosen on August 30th.

Brett's lost track of all the Fords he's owned over the years and how much he's spent modifying them, but his current money pits include an S550 Mustang and 13th gen F-150.
