It has dual exhaust. 

Was it disguised in the ad so that there wouldn't be any issues with the Mustang logos on the car?  It sorta looks like they wrapped it and left the wrap stretched over the side body features (and maybe over the fuel filler too).  The rest could be decals or cardboard cutouts. 

Makes me think of a corver(spelling)

Thoughts?  Don't like it. 
I do not know how to tell something that may have been created by a computer, or what can be done with 'photoshop', AI, etc.  By why go to that extent and leave the OEM wheels?  And where is the gas filler cap located?
I am curious as to whether this is a real car, and, if so, why the builder went to this effort. 
 

I don't know, I kinda like them square headlights. Are square headlights even made?

Lots of 4” x 6” out there Bob but I’ve never seen any square ones either.

Could have come from any make or model over the last 75 years.  More likely however is they probably just made a square headlight housing that accepts a modern bulb.  At that point you can make any shape you want.

Gotta be CGI - they forgot to put the front turn signals on the lower valance.

I can almost guarantee it's NOT CGI.  CG is very expensive and this is just a commercial.  You could use CG inexpensively to eliminate badging but not completely redesign the car, especial on a moving image as she drives the car through most of the add.  Yes CG could be used to make the mods we see to the car but the CG will take up 3-4 times the entire commercial budget and why would you do that when you can simply use a different car.  It's the name, badging, and logos that would be the copyright issues not the stylings of the car as lots of Mustang appear in commercials and the body lines are not modified.

Sad truth is it's a real car and someone chose to turn a Mustang into that.
 

But - if it is a real car, then how can it be roadworthy (and legal) with no front turn signal lights?

Your assumption is that the builder is actually concerned abut functionality and “street legal” A lot of show cars are made for no other purpose than for someone to create something “new“, that they think looks good and many don’t have things that make them functional like blinkers.

It doesn't take full on Avatar type CGI to make that travesty, cheap CGI/video post processing effects = terribad Mustang. Plus this is a drug company we're talking about, they have deep pockets...

There’s no logic in it. Any company, even a drug company with deep pockets, is not going to pay a bunch of money to do CG that THEY DON’T NEED. They could use any convertible they wanted that they thought looked good as long as the badging is removed. I’m telling you why spend a whole bunch of money to make a Mustang not look like a mustang just for a commercial when you can simply put a different car in its place. It comes down to $$$ and no company is going to spend a cent more than they need to on a commercial. It’s probably a prop car or a movie car and it’s doing its exact job (looking really ugly) in a commercial.

I know the design looks so bad that we can’t fathom why anyone would do that to a mustang but it makes even less sense to pay a bunch of money for CG when it’s not required at all. This was someone’s creation that they thought “looked good“ and now it’s likely a prop car somewhere.

Maybe they are in the headlights?  Or maybe its show car that isn't driven on the street. 

I think it is some CGI mess. Look closely at the headlights. The right one overlaps the bottom of the headlight door and the left does not. They look like cropped versions of round lights. The rear bumper is visible in the rear view, but is gone in the side view. And the side coves…. I agree they look like an orange wrap gone terribly wrong.
Just a big mess of a mess.

I'd like to think that the car is a play off of macular degeneration and the loss of finer details in some Quenton Tarantino kind of way, but it's probably more of its a start up company and they are making sure they don't have any lawsuits.   If that "thing" is real it will surface somewhere else soon enough.   

One thing is sure; they have their target audience talking, so Darren "advertising agency" is the real winner with the help of Samantha's witchcraft.   Don't forget he drove a righteous Malibu which my dad used to always point out was his favorite car!

I say AI created
