The Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R represents the most track-oriented version of the sixth-generation Mustang and features a 5.2L Voodoo V8 audibly recognizable by its flat-plane crankshaft. This 2017 example is believed to be 1 of 2 units produced with a combination of a Shadow Black finish, stripe delete, and Electronics Package delete. Offering a 6-speed manual transmission, this example also equips 19" black painted carbon fiber wheels, Brembo brake calipers, Launch Control, an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, and Recaro cloth & Miko suede sport seats. This unique Mustang has remained in a climate-controlled facility and is now being offered by its seller out of California showing under 20 miles on the odometer.
This GT350R comes finished in Shadow Black with stripe delete. It can be differentiated from the standard Mustang with its lowered stance, widened fenders, added cooling ducts, hood vent, large front splitter, quad exhaust tips, carbon fiber rear wing, and red-finished Brembo brake calipers. This GT350R has remained in a climate-controlled facility and rides on 19" factory-equipped carbon fiber wheels that come wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. A collection of detailed images including paint meter readings and a clean CARFAX report are included in the gallery.
The cabin is appointed with an Ebony and red-accented interior featuring Recaro cloth and Miko suede sport seats, as well as an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel with a red 12 o’clock stripe. Equipped with the Shelby Exclusive Trim Package, this GT350R also features cruise control, rear seat delete, and Electronics Package delete. All gauges and accessories are reported to be functioning properly.
The Shelby GT350R is powered by a 5.2L V8 engine generating up to 526 HP and 429 lb.-ft of torque to the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual transmission and Torsen limited-slip differential with a 3.73 axle ratio. The “R” package also includes a stiffer suspension setup and performance capabilities are further aided by a MagneRide damping system and Launch Control with Line-Lock. Stopping power is handled by six-piston Brembo calipers and the seller adds that this vehicle has had 1 oil change.
This sale will include a clean title, a window sticker, a car cover, a Ford Performance Certification (chassis HR488), a Shelby GT350 owner’s Supplement Kit, sales literature, correspondence with Ford, and owner’s manuals.
The seller would like you to know: “Thank you for your interest in his very special GT350R - This example was ordered by the owner/collector through the Ford VIP program and is a rare spec: 1 of only 2 in Shadow Black with Stripe Delete and Electronic Delete Package! It has lived its life in a climate-controlled facility with the care and attention it deserves. With 19.7 Miles on the odometer and all the documents and stickers as it left the production line intact you can say definitively it is "New in the Wrapper!”

A redacted email from Ford VIP services indicates that this non stickered and non tech package 350R is believed to be one of two has been added to the gallery. Also a start up and walk around video can be seen just above! Good luck to all bidders and thank you for all the DM's and comments.
Just a quick numbers review here for 2017 350R Production. I own a 2017 350R as well...happy to have another.
906 Total Production for 2017
264 in Shadow Black
59 with No Stripe
13 with Radio Delete (No Electronics Package)
So based on what the seller is saying, there are 2 done with No Stripe AND Radio Delete. The other 11 Radio deleted optioned cars had a White, Blue or Black stripe option. I do not have anyway to confirm the 1 of 2 with the production numbers charts I have on hand but wanted to put this out there. If it's not 1 of 2, its probably very close given there are only 13 R's with radio delete done in Shadow Black for 2017.

@riderup this is very helpful, thank you for sharing!
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! All DM's responded, here to field any additional questions bidders may have!
@JTPi with 6-7 year old tires I wouldn’t worry about flat spots — they need to be replaced if you’re going to drive it. It’s also out of warranty and at the 60,000/6 year maintenance interval so you would need to allocate some money to that — this is not buying a new car!
Of course if you’re not going to drive it and instead plan on keeping it in a museum then never mind.
for Lax1022:
I can probably help as I have a similarly-configured '16, except that in 15 / 16 the 'Electronics Package' was an option, you didn't 'delete' it (similar to the stripes...people often, erroneously, refer to a no-stripe car as 'stripe delete'...that's inaccurate because the cars come without stripes as the default, you add stripes). The Electronics Package (at least in 15 / 16) included A/C, stereo, and navigation / back up camera. Why would someone order it that way? Well, I live in a temperate climate (SF Bay Area) so the A/C isn't that necessary (and I tend to use my '2-65' A/C the most...roll down two windows and go 65), playing music doesn't make sense you have a Voodoo, and I have nav on my phone. It, of course, reduces the weight of the vehicle (by perhaps 1.5-2%) and makes it more unique, but I think that the primary reason one would spec / own a car spec'd this way is to appreciate / embrace the simplicity of the driving experience. My 'base' R is going on 20k miles and I've never regretted the spec.
Hello, great looking car! Can you please explain the Electronics Package delete? I’m not familiar. What are you giving up and why would someone spec this car without it. I’m sure there is a good reason. Thank you!

@JTPi -Thank you! Thats a great question. The collection is regularly moved around the building so the cars are started and not sitting long enough to flat spot the tires. Modern fuels are quite stable so that is not an issue. The battery is always on a C-tek charger. The collection is maintained by a knowledgeable owner, skilled technicians, and an attentive detailer providing anything the 350R requires. Here if you have any further questions.
Hello, great spec on this Voodoo R.
May I ask how you have started, drained/refreshed the fuel, avoided flat spots on the tires, etc. Since you have not driven this gem?
