Was over at Buffalo Wild Wings in Rochester New York and spotted this in the parking lot. Unfortunately the owners were standing right next to it, so i couldnt get any great pictures. I did walk by it earlier and the interior was all leather and it looked quite nice. Anyways, I there weren't any corporate logos on the owner's shirt, and the car wasn't badged but it looked shaped like a ford logo on the front. Can anyone identify what this is?

I bet you might be able to sell those to Pop. Mech. or an auto mag of some kind. Those are actually very good as spy shots go.

I tend to agree, some sort of Ford. Might be the Taurus's replacement since I think they have decided against using the Ford 500 as a straight Taurus replacement. Can anyone else think of what Ford sedan is due up for replacing?
 
Looks like a Subaru emblem to me...

edit: nevermind, mustangs are not 4-door

Definetly. I bet you could sell those shots, do it fast..Looks like a ford..almost mustang-ish headlights.
I was thinking the same thing. The body looks like a plain-jane sedan, but the front clip, hood and headlights look very aggressive. Muscle car like. Maybe, I'm wrong, this could be a hint of what the production version of the 500 will look like or it could be a test mule of some sort.
 
ummm not a mustang... unless they decided to make a 4 doors version?? and mustangs have that trademark feature of that 3 cambered tail lights..
 
I believe that there are 2 new Ford sedans coming out soon. One is the brand new 500 and the other is the Fusion which is based on the Mazda 6. Maybe this is one of them.
 
Just did a search and the car is not the Ford 500. Here is a pic I got from Ford's website of the 500.

Blech! Even with all of the cloaks on it the mystery car looks better than that. Good job Ford, replace the Taurus with a car that has a name inspired by some great cars of the past and make it look like that. Way to go.
 
well the 2005 suby legacy is out of the equasion
