We swore we wouldn’t show but that doesn’t mean we won’t tell, thus meaning we’ve got access on Ford’s 4door muscle concept car picture but we figured we wouldn’t break the embargo just this once.
Put it this way, it’s the rebirth of the Chrysler 300C in a dark blue colour with an F-250 Super Chief concept (pic) inspired and rounded edge front end. Details worth mentioning include the super-low roof line, the hood scoop and the minimalistic side air-vents.
And even though it’s based on a stretched version of the Mustang platform, Ford seems to be right in denying Autoweek’s 4door-Mustang theory as there’s no whatsoever “stang” styling cues here. The rear wheel drive Interceptor uses a Mustang derived, 5.0 V8 tweaked to produce 400 Hp. Excited? Well, keep that “stang” cuddled in your pants and wait a few days. It might just be worth it.

Great info, Top! I hope they don't go Too truckish, the 427 is more along my taste, but regardless its good to know this thing's finally coming!
BTW This is a showcar, the 5.0 is probably a Cammer or something similar, tiding us over until the BOSS...

Here's your picture...

Sounds a lot like the 427 concept, doesn't it?

We'll see if thats where motor trend got their info on for the Boss 302 motor... "5.0 putting out 400hp"
Its either that, or ford has found a way to bump the 4.6 to 5.0 (that was tried LONG ago....)
or its the cammer or BOSS crate engine
OR....
Motor Trend is right... and we had the wool pulled over our eyes and its the biggest kept secret...nahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
