A new high performance Mustang prototype has just hit the streets of Detroit and we believe this is the successor to the Shelby GT500, in spirit if not in name.

Ford has kept this one tightly under wraps and gone as far as scrubbing the markings off the tire sidewalls. The only size markings visible are "305/30/ZR20" on the front tires. After some quick comparisons, the tires on this prototype may be the brand new Pilot Sport 4S Michelin that just launched, indicating very aggressive rubber to lay down some serious power.

The markings on the rear tires are unfortunately not legible, but the wheels appear to possibly be 21-inches. Ford obviously doesn’t want the wheels or braking package seen at this time given the camouflage panels attached to the wheels.

Our sources tell us the next-gen GT500 successor will be powered by a supercharged cross-plane crank version of the 5.2-liter Voodoo V8 engine making between 750-800HP.

Stay tuned as we dig deeper!

Given the zip tie count...

Expect a split 5 spoke GT500 style or maybe a 10 spoke GT350 inspiration...

Interesting to see no spoiler on this one, along with the heavy camo on the back. Not sure what they're hiding in the tail lights. All other prototypes just showed 2015 tails and we've already seen the 2018s, so what's to hide?
