2016 Ford GT steals the Detroit Motor Show

[Grand Tourist]

Well, mixed feelings for me...
Ford GT Overall rating : Slightly enthusiastic with lots of doubts.
: - very efficiënt aerodynamics
: - looks a bit "un-Americanized" to appeal to the European market, lost its distinguished looks. I like that specific American look, I don't want semi-European Amrican cars.
- a downsized turbo engine. I don't mind the turbo, but the massive V8 is what made this car to what it was, brutal and uncivilized. I fear with this version, it won't feel the same any more. If owned one of these, I'd take it to Mr. Hennessey for an upgrade
- if Ford wanted to appeal European buyers, they'll have to step up with the quality and look of the interior. I think it's ugly, and they should have kept the H-gear in stead of paddles.
It looks like they weren't really sure where to go with this car.

I'm not nearly as discerning as you guys I'd love to see them all come to a game near me. Look forward to driving each one of them!

You're absolutely right about that. Any news AC will integrate the original GT40? Just for the sound it would be worth wile.

They do have the Ford license. It only seems logical that they include both

Nothing like the original.

True that. Especially with that magnificent Gulf livery

Agree with your point on the interior, black all over is a wee bit bland, but the exterior more than makes up for it IMHO
