I am starting to lean to this car was rebadged to an SS.
Maybe a previous renter who was trying to impress someone did it.

There are lots of stories over the years of people renting cars, particularly the Hertz special Mustang GT350H, swapping parts up to and including engines, and returning them. An engine swap would be a lot harder to pull off today, but wheels/tires and various other parts could still happen.
