'Monster' show car - What is it? Ford Mustang RTR-X?

Spotted this heading North from Worli (Mumbai) on 14th Feb.

Looks like some sort of tweaked out old-school muscle car.

5 twin-spoke wheels with a green line on the lip and what look like 295+ section rear tyres.

Monster (energy drinks) "M" logo seems to be visible on the rear differential.


What car is it?

Is it here for some event in town that I've missed?

Special shout-out to the Uber driver for switching to his high-beams when he saw me taking the pictures

Is Ken Block coming to Mumbai for a demo/drift show?

An image of his Hooligan V2 (mustang). Seems to have the spoiler that looks similar on the flatbed in Rehaan's pictures. Plus the Monster energy drink livery.

The ride height in Rehaan's pictures are much higher though.

Nice! This is pretty darn close...

Though the car in the video has the diff more hidden behind the aluminum box... but i'm also wondering if the car on the flatbed truck looks raised because the front is on really small tyres or jack stands? The front looks really low.

Also, what's the raised thing on the roof? Is it a set of police roof-lights? (Though they are placed a bit too far back).

Accident or damage ? May be, but hope not !
