Dave has included the GT 40 Mark IV that won Le Mans in 1967 in the header photo. Is that a clue or just a reference to the GT 40 history?? Multimatic built this De Macross GT1 a few years ago. It was based on our Ford GT and resembles the Mark IV.. What do you think of this.. ?? Any Multimatic insiders want to chime in?? :biggrin

I hope that it looks like a Mark IV. Having a modern Mark IV and the 05/06 model sitting beside each other would look great in anyone's garage.

Hey, hey, hey. No one's calling anyone a liar. I like it too. In fact, I like the whole retooling of the site. But Stormcat is building a case here and presenting evidence. That's all. :biggrin

Wow I can't believe I've never seen that before... Not nearly as pretty as the GT though. I agree with Empty Pockets, looks like a kit car. But still very interesting theory.

Dave, can you pin down a date and time of the rollout yet? A countdown clock would be cool.

I am curious and observant by nature.. Always asking and exploring.. This is the "2016+ FORD GT SPECULATION " section !!
This was not my favorite looking GT spin. I just remembered it from a few years ago... I saw some smoke and wanted to see if there was anything there.. I knew Dave would give us some vaguely honest feed back...:biggrin

WE got the award. The judges new if you weren't named, you would cry and go home (or least stop using the kitty litter).

There sure is a good chance. I have a hunch Ford is returning in 2017, for 50Th Anniversary of the "ALL AMERICAN VICTORY" at Lemans in 67.
