Fords new 2017 GT Supercar.


Recommended Posts

Hey fellow car fans,

I was flipping through my latest issue of MotorTrend (April 2015 issue) and was fascinated with their short story on Fords new 2017 GT Supercar...errr...Hypercar (pages 16 and 17):

https://social.ford.com/content/fordsocial/en/articles/autoshow/all-new-ford-gt-sets-new-standard-for-ford-innovation.html?searchid=260551114|16660224154|89333318&ef_id=Uw-dFwAABQAjwVrk:20150312124109:s

Whoa...what a sweet looking ride!!! I knew it was being designed/built by Ford after rumors became reality around about last summer, but missed its official unveiling at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show.

Some older news snippets:

Latest rumors are that Fords GT program is farther ahead then people think (thanks to Fords veil of secrecy surrounding this project) and they may even have a racing version ready for the Petit-Le-Mans this October thanks to a partnership with Chip Ganassi Racing. Should be interesting.

Well done Ford! At about $300,000 per copy in a very limited run beginning next year...its a real steal of a deal (yeah right huh... :P )

Now give me a 1/24 version please!

Regards,

Don.

They initially opened up at the auto show with a big billboard that said "LaFord"

Changed it the next day to read The New Ford GT.

Lol

I think its kinda funny and good on Ford. Light hearted humor when you really get down to it and Ferrari could have played along and everyone could have had a chuckle over it (not knocking Ferrari either as I have always liked their F50...not their F150 truck...I mean car :D ). No harm no foul.

:cheers:
