You can’t buy Joey Logano’s Penske Racing Nationwide series Ford Mustang; but you can rent a race car from Hertz that’s pretty close.
Hertz will be renting them for approximately $180 dollars a day. Dubbed the Hertz Penske GT it recalls the famous Shelby Mustang GT 350H which was popular in the late 1960s. Penske Racing combined elements of Ford's 420-horsepower Shelby GT500 Mustang and the even more powerful, track-oriented Laguna Seca version.
Enhancements to the five liter Hertz Penske GT include: • Performance Upgrades, including: Quad-Tip Exhaust System, Air Intake and ECU Tuning Upgrade, 3.55 Gears, and Brembo® Brakes • Interior Upgrades, including: Black Recaro Racing Seats, Laguna Seca Gauge Pod, Limited Edition Interior Dash and Engine Bay Plaques, Custom Floor Mats and Door Sills, and Ford’s Touchscreen Entertainment System with GPS and Back-up Camera • Exterior Upgrades, including: Black exterior with unique Hertz yellow racing stripes, Boss 302 Front Splitter, GT500 Rear Valence, Upgraded Suspension and Handling, Custom Graphics Package, and Custom Hertz Faux Gas Cap
“It is terrific that a classic American car is being transformed into a one-of-a-kind vehicle inspired by Penske Racing,” said Roger Penske. “The Hertz Penske GT makes us even more excited for what is in store for our multi-year partnership with Hertz, and we are thrilled that our fans and Hertz travelers will have the opportunity to rent this special car.” You can buy one of those old-original Shelby Mustangs, but, it will set you back six figures.
