[Year's_End]

It feels so great to be a Ford fan right now.

GT
GT350R
Raptor

And they all look utterly fantastic.

Possibly a new favorite car of mine. I loved the last gen GT, though this looks to be following the 40 a little more in size.

Ford needs to bring the XR8 Falcon sedan to the states. Now.

Ford is on FIRE!

I thought they were going to call this the ecobeast

Even if BMW made one (if you want to count their more expensive, rumored high HP i8 variant as one), it won't look as good as that Ford GT I don't think. The car is absolutely stunning inside and out. Ford took BMW's minimalist approach to interior design and just took it to another level. Absolutely love it.

If you have the money, you're more than welcome to drop your 330i and pick up a 2016 Ford GT.

Wonder how it'll hold up against Ferrari's. The original Ford GT was made specifically to destroy Ferrari in Le Mans competition (and it did).

Wish it had a V8 though, weird seeing a Ford GT with a TT V6. Not like Ford is short on high performance V8's...

I guess you don't remember the 05/06 Ford GT with its S/C 5.4 V8? It did work on any car from those years and turned out to be a beast of a car since it can be boosted to the moon.

Sad to see a TT V6 but if they think it'll be better, then let them prove us wrong.

And the "original" one was the Ford GT40. The revivals have always been called the Ford GT only since some other US company owned the GT40 trademark. Ford and has never been able come to a deal on the GT40 trademark with them.

Car looks great, and it is interesting that they are going with an ecoboost six cylinder for their super car engine. I would have thought at least a V8 with or without forced induction. Something also tells me that it won't have a lot of trouble putting the power down even though it is RWD. This is one aspect I wish the M4 would be better at or if BMW would offer a future package/Competition package to address this issue (sorry for going off topic).

No I remember it. That's why I said I was sad that they went with a TT V6, but that's just nostalgia and I'm sure the Ecoboost unit will be as capable if not more so.

Yeah I know, I should've called it the GT40 when referring to the original.

The engine is based from the Daytona Prototype Ecoboost running in IMSA.

F*ck nostalgia...this is straight from the race track.

It produces over 600 hp to the wheels.

Who gives a shit about being ecoboost.. The things gonna push 600plus hp. The car looks like freakin lambo.. But sexier

That's not the point I was trying to convey. With a hypercar (such as this) most of the vehicles as such have hybrid drivetrains/V8's/V12s/etc. You get the point. It just interesting that a V6 ecoboost that might be similar in a truck (new raptor) would happen to be used in such a car as the GT40. Usually when I think eco boost, I was thinking along the lines of the Taraus SHO. Afterall, Ford just unveiled a flat plane V8 in the Mustang. Either way I wasn't that worked up over it, just happy to read about it.

You must not follow racing.

The engine is from the Daytona Prototypes running in IMSA. This version of the Ecoboost is already an endurance race winning engine. Beating all the other V8's in the same class.

The Ecoboost in the GT is said to put down over 600whp. This thing go to be a beast on the track.

True. I don't follow racing as much, but with this being the case it already sounds like a proven engine. I look forward to following the GT as more information is released. Ford came to the auto show with a ton of new stuff and I am very impressed. I wish I could be there to see it in person.

[Brosef]

that's a lot of output from a 3.5L motor. this thing is going to be a beast, and my guess is that it will continue its legacy of being a top choice for air strip racing.

Is a 600hp twinscroll turbo 6-er... should be interesting to see some of the backpeddling of the s55 criticisms

A TT V6 w DCT... my god, so digital and not bespoke... not visceral...

[hyperboost]

the car looks kind of weird.

[dclowd9901]

I love the look, even though the rear end looks like an angry birds pig.

[erind]

looks good

[Nex]

estimated MSRP?

[DocWeatherington]

I wonder if and how bad the Turbo lag will be. Seriously, 3.5 liter, 600+hp, its going to have some serious boost to make that kind of power.

Hopefully Ford will get an A in homework and do it right.

[F1Venom]

It should've had a V8 though..... A Ford GT with a V6 sounds silly, but the GTR does just fine with one so it can't be that bad. I hope it sounds as awesome as the previous gen GT.
