Now that the dust has settled, do we like the new Ford GT?

I like that it's the most "race car" supercar since the Ferrari F40. No interior trim, no sound insulation, fixed seats, pulleys as door handles and pedal adjustments, no gimmicks, hydraulic steering, minimal luxuries. I'm glad they didn't just make 488 GTB and sell it for more because muh heritage. I think the hydraulic suspension and wing is pretty fucking cool too, and love how it looks.

No,
Could've been a hyper car slayer, won't be.
Could've had a good engine platform, doesn't.
Could've been something completely unique regarding its styling like the GT90 instead of "GT40" ran through a current-year filter.
Price and pretentiousness of a European exotic without the engine of one.

Lastly you have to suck Ford's dick and prove you're "worthy" to even get one which ironically Ford became the pretentious Italian exotic maker (Ferrari) they originally set out to beat. Its like your father was a Noble Jedi and you became a Sith Lord whilst trying to say you are the successor to your father.

So much for that disappointment. at least their's still the new NSX which has yet to flex its true muscles (Type R) and that MR GM is working on.

I like it because the Ford GT is the only supercar europoors and others respect and actually buy.
Also every company needs a halo car.

they had a good reason for that, they wanted people to buy them and keep them, not buy it and flip it which people like to do with special edition/limited edition cars

>V6 shitting all over the heritage of the car it wishes it was

it's shit

>>17646669
Shit eater thinking it's 1980 still. V8's are obsolete for racing.

Still better than Ecoboost for racing.
>>
Will there ever be another Saleen S7 /o/?
>>
>>17646896
Nope v6 is better for balance and fitting behind axles. An ecoboost 3.5l can make 1000hp no problem there was never a need for a v8 because there obsolete name one relevant racing series that still uses v8's.

As a diehard Nissan fan, all my 10 cars that I've owned have been Nissan, I actually like it. Nothing is wrong with competition amongst halo cars. Now if only GMC would stop shitting the bed the Corvette and just make a halo car.

>>17646909
All that and its still slower than a C5R

I'd like to say the Hennesey F5, but they only know how to make cars go fast in straight lines.

>>17646922
Doesn't conform to current regulations and is discontinued.
>>
>>17646904
Saleen is Financially tight right now so unlikely. best we could get from them is Ford building some extra GTs for them to re-work and fit specialized V8s too. they are in no shape to make a super car though. Hennessy somehow is with their new car they were teasing the "F5".
>>
>>17646934
They can make well over 1000hp and the 2.3 ecoboost can make over 900hp.
