Anrev explains what he saw and snapped with his camera: "The <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Ford">Ford</a> Test mule fleet is in Denver. Mustangs, Fusion, Fiesta, Ecosport with Japanese emblems, F150, Mondeo, Ranger and 2 other cars that are heavily padded and were covered. One was the size of the ecosport but more boxy. The other was the size of the Mustang but had a sharper nose and longer back roof line. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ueEYBeheMhg/UJMMKuJ8b9I/AAAAAAAJ3Ws/w7dNC8ySHdM/s1600/Ford-Prototypes-7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 10px;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ueEYBeheMhg/UJMMKuJ8b9I/AAAAAAAJ3Ws/w7dNC8ySHdM/s200/Ford-Prototypes-7.jpg" width="100" /></a> He continued: "The engineer that asked me to stop taking pics said they were in town for a few days. He started the Mustang while I was there and gave it a little gas. It may have SAID 5.0 on the side. But there's no way it was. Sounded like a V6." <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/11/u-spy-reader-spots-whole-bunch-of-ford.html#more">Read more »</a>

Like all NASCAR racers, the resemblance between the production 2013 Fusion and its <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/01/this-is-new-2013-ford-fusion-nascar.html">competition sibling</a> is only skin deep as the two models are worlds apart when it comes to the inner workings. If you follow the break, you'll find a fresh set of photos of Ford's new and old Fusion NASCAR race cars, some of which were shot during the presentation at the Daytona International Speedway. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/02/live-photos-of-ford-new-2013-fusion.html#more">Read more »</a>

The best-selling <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Ford%20F-150">F-150</a> pickup truck is the perfect example. In 2010, all units sold in the U.S. were powered by V8 engines. Last year, more than half of F-150 buyers (56 percent, to be precise) downsized to a V6, choosing either the base 305HP 3.7-liter or the 365HP 3.5-liter EcoBoost. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/01/ford-plans-to-triple-production-of.html#more">Read more »</a>

And by that we mean only looks as the actual 2013 Fusion sedan you'll find in your local Ford dealerships has nothing else in common with the NASCAR racer seen here.
