Maybe its the Mustang-derived RWD sedan. In the one pic, there is plenty of glass area to be a 4 door sedan. Guess we'll find out eventually.

Definitely looks like suicide doors to me. Too long to be just a two door, and too short for four full doors. My best bet would be a lincoln based on the mustang platform with suicide doors.
The nose looks pretty weird, big and flat but with a nice forward lean like the stang. Then again, that photo doesn't give any reason to think those guys were anywhere near done, so maybe they just hadn't done the nose yet.
The fender flares look about exactly the same as on the current mustang. Look at the size of them, and the distance between the top of the front flare and the shoulder of the hood.

Nose could be from messenger or could be the reflex, same kind of look. Has some faint Visos look as well. Kind on the fence on this one, like that they're still doing neat concepts, but right now I want to see some neat production vehicles.

The front third reminds me of the last generation Probe. Guessing from the size in the photo, I'm inclined to believe it could be a Mercury Messenger - possibly a Cougar. The T-bird had its run, and Mercury needs a "halo car" for itself. Plus, the Mustang isn't exactly a small car, so just imagine stretching it a few inches and that could explain the apparent size of the model.
