As Clarkson from 'Top Gear' found out, they are too wide for the streets of England. Perhaps they've narrowed it a bit?
Also, I HIGHLY recommend the British 'Top Gear' program on the BBC.. It's not JUST about cars. It's GREAT conversation and astounding video editing. If you're tired of trash TV, check it out.

Ford can carry it off. They have a big enough name and reputation. But all the cars too far north of $150k really aren’t cars, they’re works of art.

They could get a lot of publicity if they had Harrison Ford drive one of these new Fords around town ...
... wait ... ... probably a bad idea ...

I like it and that will be a nice place-holder until my Bugatti Veyron arrives...

Will it be able to be serviced by any dealership?

It sure looks right but I bet it has little in common with the original.
Does it have a 427? Can it run 24 hours at high speed?

I’ll take 3 please.
One in Blue for Me.
One in Pink for Mama.
One in “Arrest Me Red” to cruise around Town with Mama and the Dogs (maybe hit the Sonic for a snack) and then see how many LEO’s We can get chasing Us;)

The question then becomes: will the price tag will be justified? With carbon-fiber construction and more than 600 horsepower on tap, it very well could be.
Carbon fiber molded in a pressurized autoclave are labor intensive. Each car ties up the tooling for a day. The result is superb.

I know there is lots of gushing on a thread like this.
As a Ford Stockholder, I just don’t see the benefit to anyone of servicing this miniscule market.
(I think ‘miniscule’ would apply to a certain anatomical measurement as well).
Think of all the engineers and techs working on this kind of a stroke-a-thon machine who could have been making the manufacturer’s main line more profitable and affordable.

The story doesn’t say what kind of trailer hitch it has.

“the new Ford GT will be far more expensive”
Actually, maybe not.
This car would’ve “only” been about $54k back then.
The wonderful GT40 would’ve been about $1.11 MIL today.

OK, Ford.....this is my final offer.
The Yugo. Thirty seven bucks. A pair of used snow tires. A bag of apples.
I’d like it in red, please.

A fine ride for the one percenters. It is disappointing that my conservative brethren have taken to using progressive phrases.
