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>

CarScoop Exclusive: The All-New 2015 Ford Mustang Precisely Imagined

Hours upon hours have been consumed in getting the look as close to the real thing as possible via feedback and our own extensive investigation, and now, we can finally show you the next generation of pony car. Make no mistake; this isn't our view of the next Mustang, but how Ford's designers are actually imagining the car to look like. The Mustang has been Ford's halo car since 1964, and the 2015MY 'Stang is expected to emerge from the stables in time for its 50th birthday. This nameplate is one of the longest running in Ford's automotive history - and that's something you do not want to mess up. Bearing this in mind, taking on the challenge of rendering the actual 2015 version was hugely exciting. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mbyTh6UAo88/UIik1AzZudI/AAAAAAAJtDk/VrJTv7-n_vU/s1600/2015-Ford-Mustang-Carscoop65.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom:10px"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mbyTh6UAo88/UIik1AzZudI/AAAAAAAJtDk/VrJTv7-n_vU/s200/2015-Ford-Mustang-Carscoop65.jpg" width="200"></a> Working closely with our own sources as well as gathering all the extra information we could, including from a Ford forum thread that concerned a recent consumer clinic about the next <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Ford%20Mustang">Mustang</a> (and which by the way, has since been shut down…), we created these renderings. The car in question has been designed in GT trim, so one can expect even wilder versions like <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/11/mellow-yellow-2013my-ford-mustang-boss.html">the Boss 302</a>, CS, and GT500 down the track. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/2015-Ford-Mustang.html#more">Read more »</a>

The New Faces of CarScoop's 2015 Ford Mustang, Allegedly Tweaked to Resemble the Real Thing

Josh's speculative take blended the shape and styling elements of the retro-penned fifth generation model (both the original and the facelifted versions) with hints from Ford's modern design language as displayed in cars like the production Taurus and the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/04/ford-sources-say-next-mustang-will-look.html">conceptual Evos</a>. Several sites and forums quickly picked up the rendering with readers touching up our original design (we can assure you, none of them asked us), some of whom lightly modded the rendering with new elements like the headlamps based on what they heard from owners who rated the next Mustang at a recent consumer clinic. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/the-new-faces-of-josh-byrne-2015-ford.html#more">Read more »</a>

Well, the answer to that question is a wishy-washy yes and no.
