chunkypeanutbutter Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 For all the hype I heard, it's kinda unimpressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Woodruff Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I hope someone does a model kit of this one. It is out of this world in design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o-man Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It, the new Raptor, and the GT350R ALL need to be made in plastic. Just waiting for Focus RS to be unveiled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick GMC Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I'm not a big fan of these newer super cars, but this one looks great. I actually really like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DynoMight Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) It has a twin turbo EcoBoost 3.5 liter V6 pushing out 600 horses or more (!), with a seven-speed automatic paddleshifter. A lot of people are complaining that "this is America, it should've been a V8" but I don't think they realize that this engine will basically beat any V8 Ford has out right now. It also has adjustable seats, steering wheel and suspension, and also some crazy aerodynamics. I really like the re-styling, you can still tell it's a GT40 but it's changed so much for the better. A real nice car. I'd buy one if I could afford it! I imagine all together it's going to cost something in the ballpark of 70-100k at least. Here's a few pictures I snagged from that article.

Maindrian Pace Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Needs a twin turbo Ecoboost V8, just because. I like the previous GT better, but I understand the reasons for the restyle. I just hope they tone it down a bit. -MJS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horsepower Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 For all the hype I heard, it's kinda unimpressive. I'm kinda wondering what planet you are from where over 600 horsepower from a 3.5 litre V-6 isn't impressive?? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicholiday Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It's very cool, but I like the old one alot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drive4th Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 looks like a blend of the lotus esprit concept, the koeniggsegg agera and the back of a ferrari 458. not bad though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SfanGoch Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 A real nice car. I'd buy one if I could afford it! I imagine all together it's going to cost something in the ballpark of 70-100k at least. 70-100K is a little league field. The price, according to another article, will be approximately 260000 GBP (around $400000), which is in the same neighborhood as the Aventador. That's Major League mazuma.

Ace-Garageguy Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I like it a lot. I'm usually kinda hyper-critical of most recent designs, but all of the swoops, whiffies, scoops, diffusers, splitters and ducts actually appear to have some valid aerodynamic purpose. I bet it will be a real knockout in the flesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James2 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It's an impressive car, but! I might be the only guy here that feels that European styling has taken over. I remember a time when American Muscle just looked American. The Viper started the tread and it now continues, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quick GMC Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) muscle cars aren't aerodynamic, and the GT40/GT were never intended to be muscle. They are race cars. There is a reason the cars are shaped a certain way. Ford is making a push for Le Mans with this new car, making it a bloated brick like the Challenger isn't going to do them any favors.

58 Impala Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 600 hp out of a 3.5 V6 is very impressive, but nothing sounds better than a V8. Just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
