x2! I think FORD is testing a new engine using a v6 test car, thats my opinion. Seems to me that the front, from what i can see, doesent look any different. the turn signals are still in the same spot, and the headlights look the same. I dunno. Just gotta wait and see!

I'm not sure how strong of an engine they're going to put under the hood in that test mule while still using the standard 16" wheels. They wouldn't get any grip, IMO.

they have to test performance engines in a day to day commuter atomosphere too. and they are not going to be doing any acceleration tests on the public road.


the only way any of us would know would be if we were there and heard the exhaust sound.

Maybe it's me, but I'm not sure what this thread is about...it's sort of a "nothing" photo on which to speculate, isn't it - unless, of course, the 2010 Stang is going to come with a padded bra.
