Rare Shelby Mustang GT-H with just 1,519 miles, never rented, surfaces for sale with full documentation and showroom condition.
A rare 2006 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H with just 1,519 miles on the odometer is now being offered from The Carolina Collection, representing one of the lowest-mileage and best-preserved examples of the special-edition Hertz Shelby ever built.
In 2006, Ford and Shelby American revived a legendary collaboration from the 1960s to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the original “Rent-A-Racer,” the 1966 GT350H. Based on the S197 Mustang GT, the modern GT-H paid tribute with signature Shadow Black paint and gold Le Mans stripes. Only 500 units were built, all exclusively for Hertz rental fleets — except a small number, like this car, which were retained for promotional use and never rented to the public.
Number 472 of the 500-unit run, this Shelby GT-H was never part of the Hertz rental program. Instead, it was used strictly for promotional purposes and has been meticulously preserved throughout its life, now showing just 1,519 actual miles.
Under the hood is a 4.6-liter, three-valve V8 engine enhanced with Ford’s FR1 Power Pack, raising output to 325 horsepower. Paired with a five-speed automatic transmission and the FR3 Ford Racing Handling Package, the car delivers sharp, responsive performance while maintaining daily driving ease. Shelby visual cues include a retro-style grille, hood scoop, side scoops, and 17-inch chrome wheels. Inside, black leather upholstery and the Shaker 500 audio system round out the package.
The car is listed in the Shelby Registry and comes with original Shelby paperwork, a certificate of authenticity, and its window sticker. A clean CARFAX confirms the car has had only three owners, residing in Utah and South Carolina before joining The Carolina Collection in 2024.
This showroom-quality GT-H presents a rare opportunity for collectors to acquire an iconic piece of Shelby and Ford performance history — untouched by rental duty and virtually as-delivered from Las Vegas. See it here.
