Camouflaged Shelby GT350 seen on the street

The styling of the next-gen Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang isn’t a secret at this point, but Ford still keeps them camouflaged on the street. This clip gives a real-world opportunity to hear what its V8 sounds like, though.

The Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang made a grand debut at the 2014 LA Auto Show, and its more extreme GT350R sibling bowed at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. With the order guides already leaked and the R lapping the Nürburgring in a claimed 7:32.19, many of the big questions about the high-performance pony cars have already been answered. However, when they aren’t showing up at events, Ford apparently still sees reason to keep the models fully camouflaged on the street. Case in point: this recent video showing off one in testing.

With the design already fully unveiled, there’s not much left to spy under all of the concealment. This short clip does provide a real-world opportunity to hear the song of the 5.2-liter V8 with its flat-plane crank, though. As a development car nothing here is final, but based on this video, Ford is definitely making sure the Shelby’s engine sounds great.
