If anyone gets this I will be might impressed.

All I know is that it's been rented in the USA, is obviously a convertible and has 4/5 seats.

This is the snippet I've been sent, I'm no good at stuff like this ..

I'll say what everyone is thinking...

We need to see slightly lower in order to correctly identify the car.

Pretty much guaranteed to be a Stang I would think.

Wow, that was fast mitcht. IMO the webbing texture nails it.

By the rules of the last game, it's your turn to set a challenge....

As I was triumphantly going to deliver the answer (although I had already declared from the help of some friends!) I got sent this:



Moment ruined, but another well done!

Now ... is there any way from that to figure out which engine it is? laugh

Surely America has a 'mycarcheck' ?

2.3 EcoBoost.

It's a rental car, after all.

That's definitely the default assumption. Especially as I couldn't see them paying for the v8.

Didn't know how common the v6 was out there though.

get them to send you a picture of the back? if it says GT its the 5.0 if it has a pony with the tribar its the 3.7 v6 if its just a pony then its the 2.3 ecoboost.

Yes it is a rental car, but that is why I would expect it to be a V6 (the model we don't get) and an automatic!

The V8 would have GT on the side too (below where we often have the side repeaters for the indicators)

So whatever the outcome, it's not a real one hehe

(P.S. I don't know what it is, I just saw it come up in a Facebook sci-fi group, so I'm asking the PH beard hive mind. roger roger hehe )
