Hertz-Penske Mustang GT, Your Next Rental Car

During the height of the Muscle Car Wars, even rental car agencies were pulled into the battles between the Big Three as they fought for the hearts and minds of consumers. The Hertz-Shelby GT350H Mustangs were used by weekend warriors and thrill seekers at tracks across the nation, and Hertz has tapped into this historic partnership with the Adrenaline Collection. If you have enough cash, you can rent a genuine muscle car for a day, week, or month if you can’t bring yourself to part with it.

Hertz is now even getting into the customized car market with the addition of the Hertz Penske Mustang GT. This customized ‘Stang features performance and aesthetic enhancements that set it apart even from the other powerful options in the Hertz Adrenaline Collection.

The Hertz Penske Mustang GT is a collaboration between the rental car agency and Penske Racing, a major player in the NASCAR world. Starting off with a base, 420 horsepower 2014 Mustang GT, Penske Racing added quad exhaust system, 3:55 gears, Brembo brakes, a custom air intake and ECU upgrade that bolsters power an unspecified amount.

On the inside, Penske adds black Recaro Racing seats, a Laguna Seca gauge pod, custom floor mats, and serialized plaques. Each Mustang is also equipped with Ford’s MyFordTouch touchscreen system and a backup camera. The exterior also received a few small enhancements as well, such as a unique black exterior with yellow racing stripes, a Boss 302 front splitter and GT500 rear valence. There are also unspecified suspension and handling upgrades.

Too bad you can only rent them, not buy them at this point.
