2019 GT500 Mustang New Spy Video, Pics, Info

I saw the race also. Certainly an exciting finish.

I'm still in shock they took that modern, cohesive design and turned into Kermit the frog.

Whoever approved that needs to take a breather.

I agree, I'm not a huge fan of the Camaro in general, but it seems neither is GM based on the "refresh"

Maybe Ford is just getting back at GM for using a 15-17 Mustang look-a-like hood on the Camaro refresh?

I feel like the Camaro is about to another hiatus for a few years.

I guess GM came up with vented hoods :lol:

Personally, I don't like functional components. Give me "form" any day.

Nope competition is a good thing. I hope the Camaro lives on for a long time.

I don't know what would happen to the Mustang if the Camaro dies.... I really hope a long life to the Camaro so Ford can continue improving and trying to beat it's long-time enemy.

Cool!

I like it... I wish it had the GT500 13-14 grill-style and not just a wide open grill...

Two things I see in that photo that get my attention.

1 - I see the outline of what looks to be a removable plug on the bumper. I'm hoping Ford follows GM's lead here and we finally get a hook that can be threaded in and quickly removed. Certain export Mustangs come with a plug and a threaded bung welded into the bumper at this very location.

2 - The corner of the splitter is retracted much in the way the regular GT350 is. Gives me hope that there will indeed be a more aggressive version of the GT500 available with more effective aero, ala the GT350R.

Also... don’t forget the midsection of the bumper is color matched. :cheers:

Not “production-ready parts”. Usually on pre-production cars you won’t see the correct part pedigree just yet.

I saw it posted here by a guy called R j Smith

It appears he got it from the guy that runs this You Tube channel

This guy maybe familiar to some GT350 owners, as he just blew his engine and there was a bit of online noise made as, IIRC, he believed the replacement block should have been matching numbers (another story for another day)
