Can't wait to see what just may be the 2017 GT MK4. Because of the 100 cars in customer's garages rule, its not likely Ford is returning to the 24 for 50th anniversary of the "first" victory at LeMans, but the real target is the first "All American" win in 1967. 50yrs June 2017.

THAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE OF ANYTHING I'VE SEEN SO FAR!!!

They can't possibly make 2016 now, but 2017 is a shot (if they announce next week).

Well, is this a roller as it does not appear to have exhaust pipes? And rear diffuser fins?
Most probably not Dave's.

It does have exhaust pipes and diffuser, just can't see it because of the darkness in the image.

It's definitely not mine. I wish it was!

I wonder if there is any significance to the word Phoenix? Rising from the ashes? Mark IV GT?

Maybe they started in the dictionary at "Petunia" and "Phoenix" was the first interesting word they came to.

I wonder how many on this forum have seen the Phoenix and are climbing out of their skin not being able to talk about it yet....

How about hints. Can you give hints? Beyond "love Ford".

I will spill it: one of the four answers in the poll above is correct! You heard it here first! Tomorrow Ford will unveil something or nothing!

Truth is, it's very nice of Ford to allow the sneak peek like they do. Nobody else in the industry does that. They ask those in attendance not to detail the program, so I'm stickin to the request.

Now please, all of you, stop texting me. :lol
