2018/19 Shelby GT500 Mustang Spotted! Twin Turbo V8 Powered? [UPDATED WITH VIDEO]

[SVTClark]

nobody seem to notice that the headlights on the mule still retain the '15+ tri bar LED's? You can see them straight through the camouflage.

Folks, it's not a production unit. This is just some sort of development vehicle.

No where did I mention the production vehicle having the same race wing...I just said that the vehicle looks to have the steeda race wing. :headbonk:

The wing looks similar to an early 350R prototype

From the pictures, it looks like a mix of GT350 and GT. The fenders are same as GT 350. The hood looks different, possibly RAM AIR.

The bumper looks from a GT instead of GT 350, the pillars on the bottom part are
pointing inwards, like GT and not outwards as they are in GT350.

Even the Head lights look same as GT/GT350 peeking from the camouflage.

not sure what they are trying to hide, if cosmetic changes or the face light, then I doubt there will be big change in front appearance and based on the pictures, my best guess will be it is based on a GT350 Chassis, with little or no changes to appearance, if this is actually the final product.

Will be interesting to know what engine they are picking up, 5.0, 5.2 or bigger

Maybe they still have a few 5.8s laying around.

I think these are just mules where manufactures throw parts in for testing. They might need to test a new engine and they use an old mule to try it on.

But I do hope we will get a TT 5.0 at the end.

If its a gt500 i hope its not v6tt. I think it will be a single turbo v8 or a supercharged v8. Im really hoping mach 1 though, voodo engine with a bad ass shaker hood. Maybe same suspension as the current 5.0 (keep costs down) with gt350 brakes and maybe exhaust? Or something similar for like 45k :ford:

it will not be single turbo - unless it is a single exhaust car or a four cylinder

cost will be more than gt350 and it will be bargain compared to the wider performance car market but will be expensive for mustang guys and ford will sell everyone

i wish i could hear this car so bad damn if it really a TT V8 i will put my name on the list for a GT500

 

[z460]

Am I seeing a roll cage in the back?
GT350RS track addition?

it's not another GT50

 

[z460]

OMG, I love this design, if the Turbos would fit there.

well this pictuere from a prototype super cobra jet idk if they would put that in a GT500 if its' going to make over 700hp for sure

 

[HawaiianStang]

TT 5.0 with AWD, Magneride and Carbon Fiber wheels. 740 hp. I can dream can't I?

 

[Entick]

They need to release this in the UK!
Take my money!!

 

[Davy_Baby9]

Why would one assume it's a TT V8 and not a TT V6 that appears to be available in everything?

Could just be testing the cooling of the possible new front end in a GT or GT350 variant.

Ford REALLY needs to step up its game on the HP wars
Total domination or GTFO
