Yahoo Autos Ford Mustang road-going GT3 prototype: Spy photos show its wide body, center-exit exhaust
Jim Farley foreshadowed it was coming, and now we think we’re looking at a heavily camouflaged prototype of the Ford Mustang GT3 road car. Spied running around a Ford test track, this tester is a seriously chunky Mustang that’s rocking a unique aero package and a center-exit exhaust. It’s no Dark Horse, and thanks to that center exhaust, it’s likely not a Shelby model either.
Of course, all of that is what leads us to guess that we’re looking at the road-going version of Ford’s GT3 racecar. Its wide body is undeniable underneath all those wrappings. The extra width is most noticeable when you’re looking at the disguised Mustang directly from the front or rear. That rear shot gives us a fuzzy glimpse of the dual outlet exhaust coming out the middle of the rear bumper instead of the Mustang’s traditional exhaust outlets on the corners. A rather aggressive-looking spoiler sits under cover on the decklid, but it’s all a bit fuzzy to make out exactly what’s going on back there.
