Yahoo Autos High-performance Ford Mustang mule spied as a potential next-gen Shelby
The 2024 Ford Mustang isn’t even at dealers yet, but Ford is already working on follow-up high-performance variants. This batch of spy photos shows what looks like a mule for that very thing.
A much wider front and rear track along with extra-beefy tires on all four corners are the first couple of giveaways that this Mustang is a mule for something more significant than the body might suggest. Look closer, and those wheels that are poking out reveal themselves to be carbon fiber wheels, but not the same as those just revealed on the Dark Horse. Instead, they look exactly the same as the available seven-spoke carbon wheels available on the previous-generation Shelby GT500.
That’s not flat-out confirmation that this mule is a GT500 in sheep’s clothing, but it does suggest that we may be dealing with a Shelby model. Ford hasn’t confirmed that follow-ups to either the previous Shelby GT350 or GT500 are coming with the next-gen Mustang, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t either.
