It is offered on Bring a Trailer by a private seller with bidding at $49,500 and two days remaining. The hook is a limited-edition, essentially new Shelby convertible that channels the spirit of the original 1966 GT350H.2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H ConvertibleBring a TrailerWhat it's worth right nowThe modern GT-H occupies a limited-edition niche that trades at a healthy premium. According to Classic.com, third-generation GT-H models average about $74,383, and comps for the specific 2022 convertible indicate a range of roughly $67,895 to $86,895. This car carried an MSRP of $80,230 when new.AdvertisementAdvertisementIts condition is a major factor, since at 97 miles it is effectively a delivery-mileage car, and the seller presents a compelling rarity angle, describing it as one of a small number of licensee cars that went to Hertz franchisees and were never placed into rental service. Worth noting for accuracy, the Carfax lists the owner types as rental and personal, so a buyer who cares about the never-rented distinction should confirm that history directly.2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H ConvertibleBring a TrailerAt $49,500 with two days remaining and active bidding, the auction is tracking below the comp range, so it should climb. Fair value for an essentially new, well-documented example realistically lands in the $60,000 to $78,000 range.Condition and detailsThe car is finished in Carbonized Gray Metallic with the signature matte gold Hertz stripes and graphics, riding on 20-inch wheels with Hertz center caps, and it carries the full Shelby treatment: specific bodywork, a vented hood, a Shelby exhaust, MagneRide suspension, and Brembo front brakes. Inside are heated and cooled leather seats with GT-H embroidery, a Bang and Olufsen sound system, and a dash plaque identifying it as Shelby American CSM number 22HO147. It comes with the window sticker, Shelby build documents, both keys, and a Hertz license plate frame.2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H ConvertibleBring a TrailerThe powertrain is the familiar and robust 5.0-liter Coyote V8 rated at 450 horsepower, paired with a 10-speed automatic and a limited-slip differential, so this is a limited-edition appearance and handling package rather than a mechanically exotic car. That is not a criticism, simply the right way to understand its value, which rests on rarity, the Hertz collaboration, and its near-zero mileage.2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H ConvertibleBring a TrailerA couple of practical notes: the Carfax lists at least one open recall that should be addressed, and despite the tiny mileage, the car is now a few years old, so fluids and tires should be evaluated by date rather than wear. The seller notes the 2022 cars came only with black wheels, so the gold-wheel look some buyers picture would require aftermarket powder coating.The offerSpecificationDetailMakeFordModelMustang Shelby GT-H ConvertibleYear2022Mileage97 milesEngine5.0-liter Coyote V8Power450 hpTransmission10-speed automaticDrive typeRear wheel drive with a limited-slip differentialExterior colorCarbonized Gray Metallic with matte gold graphicsInterior colorBlack leatherCurrent bid$49,500, with two days leftInterested in this 2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H? View the listing here.What makes the Shelby GT-H uniqueThe Shelby GT-H revives one of the great stories in muscle-car history, the 1966 Shelby GT350H, a special run of Mustangs that Hertz rented to customers who, legend has it, occasionally returned them with evidence of weekend racing. Shelby American revived the concept with Hertz in 2006 and has produced limited batches since, with the 2022 cars marking Shelby's 60th anniversary and offered in both coupe and convertible forms in a small, numbered production run.2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-H ConvertibleBring a TrailerAdvertisementAdvertisementEach GT-H starts as a Mustang GT and receives Shelby's bodywork, suspension, and brake upgrades, an exhaust system, and the unmistakable black-and-gold or, here, gray-and-gold livery, along with individual CSM identification that ties it to the Shelby registry. Because so many were destined for the rental fleet and accumulated real miles, genuinely low-mileage examples like this one are comparatively scarce, which is central to their collector appeal.My takeThis is a fun and genuinely rare thing to own, and the combination of an essentially new odometer, the desirable Carbonized Gray livery, and the Hertz rent-a-racer story makes for a real conversation piece that should hold collectors' interest. If the licensee, never-rented backstory checks out, it adds a further layer of appeal to what is already an unusually well-preserved example.I would place fair value in the $60,000 to $78,000 range, so the current $49,500 bid still has room to run within the comps. Just go in clear-eyed that this is a limited-edition Mustang GT rather than a mechanically special Shelby, confirm the ownership history if the never-rented status matters to you, sort the open recall, and refresh the age-sensitive fluids and tires. Do that, and it is a distinctive, low-mileage modern Shelby that should be easy to enjoy and maintain.Disclaimer: This post is for informational purposes only. We are not a dealership or broker.
