They have a not so secret huge proving ground down there. A lot of the spy shots that were out before the release were taken in that area.

No lie. From what I recall its on "the edge of town" somewhere. I know nothing about Florida myself but I am sure someone here can help. Another alternative is to go to themustangsource.com and ask there.

Re: 2005 Mustang GT with Manufacuteres plates in Orlando

There's a 2005 Mustang GT on my college campus. It is pretty cool looking, they need to park by one of the old '60s Mustangs on campus though. It looks a little out of place next to round cars.

What is stranger is that there is a new-ish Alfa Romeo on campus. They don't even sell those in the US O_o. It's ugly and all, but still interesting.

I know of a plant that makes Ford powered big rigs but nothing of a proving ground. hmmmmmmm. Might have to look into that..............

GM has a proving ground here too. It sits right in the middle of Epcot

Fords proing grounds are in Michigan, Arizona and Florida. Remember that early pic everyone thought was a cobra? That was taken near the Florida proving ground.
