2016 FORD GT Gallery

Suddenly, that new NSX looks pretty lame.

So, so true.

Any engine compartment shots? I'd like to see the plumbing.

 

[jbyrnes]

Exactly what was needed to inspire and create the new generation of teenage car enthusiasts. I think there'll be a run on posters from the teenagers and lottery tickets from us.

 

[djs]

How funky/cool are those headlights? And yet the rear lamps bring back the GT40 single light motif used in the 05-06 cars.

 

[dbk]

The hotness. I can't take it. Dying. Is it 2016 yet?

 

[ROCK]

Lol...we all are. There won't be enough of them, I'm affraid.
The turbos spin sooo loud. Almost like a modified 911TT

 

[canuck]

I have had to repeatedly change my underwear every time I look at it.

 

[daytrayd]

I will sell my house for this if I have too, GAWD DAMNNN!

 

[djs]

I think it is the front fenders that are so alluring; they really bring back the front end of the Mk 1 GT40s and our '05-06 cars, especially from the concave sweep from the front vents. I love the whole car, but anyone who saw an original and/or a GT would be able to see the provenance because of the front end.

 

[FBA]

I want one - I'm gonna try and get one. Just absolutely sick design! How much power you think this thing will come with and what will it weigh? Any thoughts?

Chip's TT came to mind. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who Designed it?

Joe

"Ford GT designer Moray Callum told us this is the fastest design he's ever done, and that it took about 14 months from start to finish. He also said that a small team worked on it in a basement to help keep it on the down low."

This quote is from MSN Auto

 

[dbk]

Find my ANYTHING else that looks like this:

Insanity.

 

[2112]

I think Ford just closed the book on the old school of design that follows function.

This proves Function can be insanely beautiful. Not freakish as many of the competitors cars are.

 

[Chris A.]

Wonder how the back accessibility is.....where will it hinge?

 

[DakotaGT]

So beautiful. Parts of it remind me of the LaFerrari, but Ford NAILED every angle, while the LaFerrari has so many garish detractor features and angles that keep it from being as attractive as it could otherwise be.

Looking at the dash and gauges, do you think the gauges will fail? (Sorry, had to ask!)

Tim - when you pass the speed of light - you don't need gauges....

 

[bonehead]

Aftermarket is already all over this car. haha

 

[Kayvan]

Think Ford went with classic curves v. trapezoid, ovoids, and elipisoids that plague many others :0

Competition looks soap-bar, hump-backed, cat-fish/snout and squat.

Oblong, center-mass, & bulbous is OUT

Air-Frame, Fuselage, Flying Butress, race Ponton wheel-pod is IN.

Design Review: '16 Ford GT Classic:

-Teardrop silouette
-Coke-bottle haunches
-Kamm style / duck-tail
-Sharp Creased-curves
-Squared horizontal outlines

Interior:

-Miura Seats / Headrests
-Giugiarro inspiration
-Braun / Dieter Rams inspired finishes
-Seating spacing - classic GT40
