New Ford GT
 
This means there will be two genuine American production hyper-cars in 2017, the C8 Vette and the Ford GT. Best time for cars ever. No comparison.

Looks sorta like a Mclaren, but still sexy as fuck.

I like it a lot but I wish they would have put a twin turbo V8 in it. A V6 GT40 is just wrong.

They are going for ultra crazy light weight I think, if I read it right. The Vette is going to have a TT V8 for the big dog, and probably quite a bit more powerful, but also some TTV6.

Yes please!


They were going for best power-to-weight ratio but I agree with Ron... TT V8 (TT the V8 from the GT350!)

That is dead sexy in that paint.

As for V8TT, 'Murika!

If Ford keeps it around for more than a year I'd bet it gets a v8

Given emissions and fuel requirements, I doubt they could pull it off, but a >600HP NA V8 would da shit.

They won't make emissions with a 600hp NA V8 but they could with a twin turbo one.

Ecoboost V8 with variable cylinder selection. Winning.
