BACK SEAT FUN GETS REVVED UP WITH NEW MUSTANG GT350R BACK SEAT KIT

Ford Performance is giving Shelby® GT350R customers more of the functionality they asked for with a new back seat package for most track-capable Mustang ever. Unique upholstery and contrast stitching match Shelby GT350R front seats. With safety top of mind, GT350R kit includes all GT350 occupant restraint systems.

DEARBORN, Mich., Jan. 21, 2016 – Fun in the back seat has never been this exciting as Ford Performance debuts a new Ford-designed and engineered back seat kit that turns the Shelby® GT350R Mustang into a four-seater.

Gone are the days in which only two passengers could fit in the most track-ready, road-going production Mustang ever built. This new kit means Shelby GT350R is now the most track-ready, road-going four-seat Mustang ever built.

"We always listen to customer feedback," said Dave Pericak, global director, Ford Performance. "So when many requested a back seat for their GT350R, we acted quickly to make it available."

The kit features the same high-quality Alcantara material and high-contrast red accent stitching as the front seats for a beautiful, straight-from-the-factory look, and a consistent feel. With safety a top priority, it includes all original GT350 occupant restraint systems.

The back seat kit is available for $999 through Ford Performance Parts. It is recommended a Ford authorized dealer or service center perform the installation to help ensure safety for rear seat passengers.
