Really well done Ford! I think they have built a real modern day super car, but I would never replace my current GT with it....It does not have the same feeling to me. My guess, they will be selling for well over 40% sticker.

I even like the re-designed "GT" logo!

Wow. Incredibly beautiful. Ford did a masterful job incorporating design cues from the 05-06 GT into a thoroughly modern car. Bummed about no manual, but I was not expecting to ever again see a car of this caliber with a manual anyway. Ford gave us the manual V8 car we all wanted, now it's onward and upward.

That is truly amazing, even more so how they managed to keep it hidden.

Love the way they push air thru it... Love it!!!! Entirely new, yet keeps enough of the shape to be recognizable.

The car is much, much more radical in person than people realize.

Look at all the space here. As you say, this is all aerodynamic enhancement. Has a purpose, and nothing like it on the road.

What Jason said, "who designed it?" doesn't look like it came from the pen of a Motor City Master
 
I guess I'm a dinosaur, I don't care for modern super cars. Give me the late 50s and 60s. I'm sure it's a great vehicle, but it's not for me. And I don't like Ford calling it a "GT"! Now there are a gazillion Ford "GT"s: Mustangs, originals, 05-06, and this thing.

Absolutely stunning, Ford did it right, again!
Dave, any idea on how many years they will produce the new GT?
