Yes please. http://www.evo.co.uk/ford/14937/ford-gt-concept-unveiled-new-supercar-set-for-launch-in-2016

Under the bonnet of the concept is a turbocharged 3.5-litre V6 EcoBoost engine, producing over 600bhp and sending power to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle.

nice, seen a GT trundle past me in Aberdeen last month. Looked and sounded epic!

I've only heard one, in Glasgow, I don't think the exhaust was standard but it sounded like thunder either way!

Side profile looks odd and the rear looks 'underhweeled'.

Like it other than that though.
Ford always for the small wheel big tyre muscle car look on the GT's. The original car in the 60's had 15's!

It's nice, I just think a V6 was the wrong engine choice.

This is just going to sound wrong for a Ford GT.

I think they've made a mistake in calling it the GT. It implies that it's a continuation of the GT40 bloodline, and whilst the last car was a real homage to the original with a lot of visible similarities, this really doesn't. Furthermore while I think the ecoboost lump will be incredibly popular, it feels like a slight bit of desecration towards the original V8 muscle car. They should've gracefully retired the name and given this a new one of its own.

Not a fan of that!

The back looks suspiciously 458 and from the front it looks too mid league Lotus-esque. Pass!

Can't believe nobody's posted a video of it yet!

Fast forward to 3:10 for the startup and noise!

I can't see the yanks wanting to buy that, in my mind V6's are Golf R32's, 4Motions and mid engined Clio's, not what i'd associate with high end supercars.
