It's been kept pretty tight.
I'd expect more than just a slight change.

I mean, we've seen the one spy shot with the different front end... I'd expect the back to change just as much.

Actually found this on a friend's Facebook page today. Looks like a lightly camo'ed Boss 302:

After blowing up the pic in Photoshop, here's what I believe is going on:

- White car is a Boss. Grille badge is a tri-bar pony. Wheels appear to be '12 Boss 302 wheels.

- Headlamps have some kind of LED accent to them, on the outer edge. Think where the current HID headlamps have their turn signal. It appears there are two led "tubes" around that turn signal area.

- Side rockers are painted.

- Lower section of rear is camo, which means it may be painted now. Hard to tell from this angle. Also appears to be some kind of pseudo-tail light wrap to hide the details a bit more.

- Front lower fascia appears to be similar to the red mule we saw months ago. There's something going on in the lower corners of the fascia that's hard to make out, but it looks to be similar. Almost appears to me to be like the 3DCarbon Boy Racer kit, with strakes on the lower corners. Brake cooling? Aero enhancement?

- Other car in pic is a Brembo car, can't tell much more.

I think I'm going to go for a drive...

agree I think that looks like a BOSS (grill/wheels) and that's obviously a brembo GT right in front of it. Is it just me or does that wheel gap look at bit tighter? Are there more pics to be had?

Upon closer inspection, I think it's a new BOSS 302. I zoomed in on the picture and the car has a splitter upfront, the pony emblem in the grille, and Boss wheels on it.

EDIT: oops, you guys beat me to it.

I agree. I pulled it up and broke down what I believe to see in the pics.

Judging from the height between the ground and the side splitters and the wheel gap that I can see it's no lower than what we've seen before.

its too bad they photoed the boss, the GT is much closer and and probably would have revealed more detail. Hopefully one of those spy photographers roaming got a glimpse and pics will be up soon.

Wondering about the interior now too... if the screen is integrated, they would have had to change the cluster. Did they stay with the same theme as before or use this as a chance to change it up completely.

I could see that LCD fitting nicely between the speedo and tach.

If they are on public streets with that little of a camo job then there should be a bunch of pics soon!

That picture was taken coming off of I-75 NB and heading west to AAI on Gibraltar Rd. Looks like they were heading into the plant. As you said, we'll probably see better shots from Priddy & Co. here soon.

Ford really did keep this under wraps all the way to unveil.

Looks to me like the white one has a black spoiler. And the rear over hang seems shorter.

Looks like the tail lights now wrap around?

Or it could be part of the camouflage. Check out the latest batch of Ford Escape mule photos to see what I mean.
