Guys just saw this . USD $ 599,695.00 Not sure if its true, but holy crap this is getting very expensive!!
Now I appreciate its over 700 hp (according to the add) but still.
Heck in Canadian funds this puts the car at 1,000,000.00 Depending on the exchange at the time.
WWWWOOOOWW

To steal our forum leaders word..... "clickbait"

Seriously, if the Ford GT had actually run on the Mulsanne don't you think that other press wouldn't have published it? Lots of other things that make it look like it was written by a 9 year old (a 9.4 second quarter mile?) Weight is probably wrong since they can't ballast that much. I put this in the "always unreliable sources" list.

Not true. You should disregard 75% of that article.

75%? Stop lowballing.

They did at least get the engine displacement correct.

The price & hp keep going up while the weight keeps going down! It'll soon be a 1000 lb, 1000 hp car selling for $1M!

Nonetheless, it is an interesting viewpoint and numbers given. Doesn't mention Le Mans/Mulsanne, but does mention the 'Ring - is anyone aware of Ford taking the NGT to the Nordschliefe?

Behind everyone's guesses and suppositions, there is usually some fact that they stray from.

From the Le Mans website (http://www.24h-lemans.com/en/race/category_2_2_1742.html), the LM GTE Pro class major restrictions are -

The 1,245 kg minimum weight translates to 2,744 lbs.

The WEC regulations, for races other than Le Mans, use "equivalency" as their method for maintaining fairness within a class - the rules for the WEC are given in
