click above for more spy shots of the 2010 Ford Mustang GT
Spy shots of the production 2009 Chevy Camaro and 2010 Ford Mustang GT in the same day? It's like these two pony cars have started competing for mindshare before a single one's been built. All the better for us, however, as in addition to the Camaro testers that were just caught on camera, we also get to glimpse the new Mustang GT that will arrive a year after the new bow tie brawler. Ford is playing it smart and will steal some of the Camaro's (and Dodge Challenger's) limelight with this mid-cycle enhancement when it appears in late 2009 as a 2010 model. From these spy shots, however, we can see that the changes are more than a nip/tuck. The 2010 Mustang will sport all-new front and rear fascias, so expect new headlights, a new grille, new taillights, etc. In fact, from what we can see of the high-tech looking headlights on this tester, it appears that the front-end will be carrying design cues from the Guigiaro Mustang Concept, which is a good thing. Check out more angles of the car in our gallery below and let us know what you think in the comments.

Just wait until the 2010 special edition. Now that will really knock your socks off.

Like the once great Lincoln Marque, the Mustangs will no longer be offered with a V8.
You can select a lame V6 or the venerable I4 from the 1973 Pinto.

A Mustang with a trailer hitch?
Drives like a truck jokes in 5..4..3..2..1...

No your the joke and lame, its a test mule what do you expect

I'm a Ford owner (Lincoln, actually) and was merely making a joke about the flamewar insitigations that people like you fall for EVERY time.

Do I see a 3 bar chrome grille?

Dude, that's not even funny. ;)

I was hoping Ford would upgrade the quality of the Mustang's interior with this redo, but with what we just saw with the Camaro, why bother....
Randy @ Jan 4th 2008 8:57AM
LMFAO... When I saw the Camaro interior I thought! Gross! It's old looking! But I've always disliked GM interiors! Always plastic looking (yeah I know they are all plastic). I like the current Mustang's matte-ish interior finish too!

if there is one thing Ford seems to do right now, it is interiors. the current model swept every interior award the year it came out. I have seen the interior styling cues of the next model and the camaro of course and let me just say that Ford is in no way following the cheap plastic look of chevy here. the mustang is going to be a stunning enhancement.

it's hard to see anything they have it wrapped up so tight.
Trevor Klein @ Jan 3rd 2008 11:29AM
It looks like they finally did something with that rear though. Just about everyone loves the front of the current 'Stang, but can't stand the rear.
The Saleen's rear is much nicer/cleaner.
Jason Bird @ Jan 3rd 2008 11:27AM
I love the look and performance of the Mustang...but the interior is where you live. The look is fine, I would just like them to up the material quality. Especially the dashboard and console.

anyone see the gauges on the pillar?
naggs @ Jan 3rd 2008 2:17PM
boost gauge for ttv8?
no, its a mule, prob just oil temp A/F stuff like that. i would be shocked to see that on the final car
EmmEff @ Jan 3rd 2008 11:47AM
Mustang coupe? Is the "coupe" designation in the article title _really_ necessary?
Mr. Blake @ Jan 4th 2008 8:31PM
Um, did you know that there exists a Mustang Convertible?
EmmEff @ Jan 5th 2008 9:01AM
I don't wish to argue semantics, but unless otherwise stated (and it ALWAYS is), the model "Mustang" by itself implies 'hardtop coupe'.

As revealing as Eva Mendez in flannel feet pajamas and a bathrobe. What's the point?
(Altho I bet she's even hot in feet pajamas)
