Hold your horses there Mustang! Our spy shooters were at the right place at the right time to capture a 2016 Mustang prototype’s unfortunate moment at the Nürburgring circuit.

“One of Ford’s test drivers appeared to have problems at the exit of the carousel, as he lost the back end on a 2016 Mustang SVT development car, and came within inches of crashing into the barrier,” said our eyewitness.

We can’t say for sure which upcoming version of the new Mustang Mk6 we’re seeing here, but this tester lacked the muscled-up bodykit of the Shelby (or SVT / GT500) edition we scooped last month.
