Ford GT: This Is It
Jalopnik ^ | 1/12/2015 | Patrick George

Ford did it. They actually went and did it. It's been rumored about and speculated on for months, but now we know it's real.

This is it: the new Ford GT. Ford just dropped a bomb on the rest of the world, and it's got a twin-turbo EcoBoost V6, if you can believe it.

I love it and hate it at the same time.

The GT 40 is more voluptuous and yet muscular at the same time. Still, the lines of the GT 40 show through.

Gawd that is gorgeous. Absolutely blows corvette out of the water, styling wise. Can’t comment on any other aspects yet.

Sorry, :-(, if the “Mods” want to change it, I am ok with that. It is breaking news in a sense, Ford just sucked all the O2 out of anybody else who is trying to do a product unveiling @ the NAIAS...

That is my personal all time favorite. But the cobra is a close second.

Yeah, I prefer the GT350R.

Ford continues to win by simply producing cars that people actually want.

The F-150 is again named the North American truck of the year.
