2016 Mustang GT-350 in the wild

Downtown Friday night 09/25/15 I see this car parking across the street.

It looks like a Mustang, but the low rumble of the engine while just parking was like a bass line from Tony Levin of King Crimson.

Then I notice this front/side vent just behind the front wheels.

I convinced my wife that it was just cause to cross the street to check it out, and borrowed her point and shoot camera.

The driver confirmed that it's a 2016.

I wish I had more pictures of when the parking lights were on, very cool affect.

From what I could tell, it's still difficult to get out of the back seat of one of these.

However I doubt anyone buys one for the back seat ergonomics.

NOTE: I did not see the name Shelby on a badge or emblem anywhere. Maybe it's inside the car, or blacked out where I did not see it.

I don't know about the yellow... Otherwise, it looks very cool!

I saw one of the titans with the Cummins last week. All the badges blacked out except the Cummins badge on the the fender.
That mustang looks good though.

We had a car show last month sponsored by Ford, they had two GT350R on display. Very striking cars. I'll be looking for one in a few years when they start depreciating.

I see from the link below there is little difference between the 2015 and 2016, guess I don't get out much.

Shelby GT350 Mustang In White With Blue Stripes Is 500 HP Of America

Still, the sound of this thing was special. When I mentioned to the driver that the sound first caught my attention as something different, he smiled, shook his head yes, and said it is special.

Just based on the videos online I would totally agree, that flat plane V8 sounds like nothing else. The lovechild of an exotic and a muscle car.

Obviously he had a selfie stick with him. I don't leave home without mine...

I just stretched out my arm over my head.

Must be the focal length of the point and shoot lense.

Not very crisp photos, but a nice halo effect on these night shots.
