JVS Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 http://www.verdictoncars.com/features2/GT_wp0_800.jpg Introduction: Although clearly inspired by the original 1960s Ford GT40, the latter-day GT is, underneath its retro styling, a thoroughly modern supercar. The original concept appeared at the 2002 Detroit motor show and was not intended for production. Widespread popular acclaim, and the neat coincidence of the company's approaching centenary celebrations, saw a production car commissioned shortly afterwards. It features a mid-mounted supercharged V8 engine that gives 500 bhp and 500 lb-ft of torque, ensuring massive performance is available at almost any speed. The entire project was developed from show concept to production car in just 16 months, the first examples going to customers late in 2004. in http://www.verdictoncars.com/jsp/vocmain.jsp?lnk=241&featureid=17&description=Ford%20GT Quote
