The New Ford GT

[Gally]

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.

Concept of course. I imagine it will be a special car. Love that Ford have a supercar.

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

 

[Gally]

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

 

[Philip.]

The back of that looks absolutely stunning!

Brb, picking my jaw up off the floor.

 

[Scrooge]

The back is insanely nice the rest is a bit meh compared to it.

 

[Addicted]

Nice, rear looks like a Lizard though.

I see a snake

 

[gex23]

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.

 

[makavelli]

My uncles waiting for the books to open so he can get one, jammy bugger

Had to be small for the Lm gte regulations. No chance of a big v8 these days!

Rear end is horrid IMO, Shame as the rest looks good

 

[gex23]

The more I look at this - the worse it looks.

 

[Mr Plums]

Looks like ET from back, I wouldn't say no tho.

 

[McGherkin]

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.

 

[The_Pirate]

Not a fan of that!

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

 

[Lal B3N]

Rear looks awesome.

Front and sides not so much.

 

[haimsey]

Personally, I love it.
Be interested to see it in the Gulf colour scheme

Lol, synchropost.

458? Tinder wenches have melted your brain.

 

[Gally]

Howly hell!

 

[DannyR]

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

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

[Laine_16v]

The exhaust noise is just pure awsomness!!

 

[Mr Plums]

 

[The_Pirate]

458? Tinder wenches have melted your brain.

And the contents of my wallet! :disrelieved:

 

[Gally]

Oh my....

 

[just-that-ek]

Oh my....

Wow those exhausts..

 

[Advikaz]

Being V6 is disappointing news.

 

[Sir_Dave]

Faptastic.

 

[Martin.]

Looks amazing. How much roughly are these going to start at?

 

[dangerous dave]

I don't like it, this new swoopy open backed joined at the top sh1t..

I'd take the original all day every day over that.. It all goes wrong at the rear of that car.. Yuck

 

[Gavin.]

I can't wait to see it flying around the Circuit de la Sarthe in GT form next year.

 

[SC03OTT]

More than you can afford pal...

($400,000 seems to be the price that's being floated around t'internet).

 

[DaveDreads]

WHAT!? That's just wrong.

 

[Advikaz]

WHAT!? That's just wrong.

Apparently so mate.

 

[DaveDreads]

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.

 

[Martin.]

Nissan GTR is a V6
