Just like the good old days, this was an exceptional review of an absolutely spellbinding car. It's amazing to think what a rather utilitarian company like Ford can pull off when they set their mind to it. I don't think there's one person on the planet that wouldn't say the top down view (looking at the roof etc...) is an absolute visual masterpiece. I don't think I've ever in my life seen a car that beautiful from that angle. Just. Perfect.

As soon as he opens the throttle, that smile comes out, even if it’s subtle.

[@darkySp]

The 2017 Ford GT is one of the best looking cars from the 2010-2020 decade in my opinion. It's the perfect homage to the original GT with just the right amount of modernized design put into it. And you also have a really good amount of tech underneath. And I respect Ford's decision to make this a track-focused car. Ferrari and McLaren and Porsche are a little too fixated on making a sort of "Super GT" car (with a couple of exceptions). Not that this is a bad thing in itself, but I like the fact that the Ford GT models have always been for the tracks first and foremost. If I was a millionaire, it's buy this first. I don't think I'll become a millionaire and get super cars to stay pretty in my garage, I'll want to take them to the track and "appreciate" the car, not view it as an art piece. I'll get all the racing courses and qualifications I'll need and I'll be taking super cars to the tracks. I'll keep a Bugatti in the garage, because i don't want to die. Unless...

@@queefreak666 Where did I say that a modern V6 is lighter than an OLD V8? Stop trying to make shitty strawman arguments when you are WELL AWARE of the point I'm making. Take a V6 and a comparable V8, now add 2 turbos to the V6 and tell me that a V6 is lighter than a V8.

I think it was more due to the fact that if they had put a V8 it wouldve affected the design of the car. The car was designed for aerodynamics.i remember on a documentary of the Ford gt they said that they decided on a V6 because they wouldn't have been able to get the aero shape they wanted with a V8....I just cant stand Europeans, they for years say that Americans cant build a "proper" V6 because theyre obsessed with building smaller engines with a higher output...we built a car with a v6 that WON LEMANS!!! And all they can do is criticize it and say it wouldve been better had there been a big V8... they, no matter what will ever give us our due.. but that's kool because when we put our mind to it we ve accomplished anything we ve set out to do...

@@sanctorum21 Take the weight of a Twin Turbo 3.5 litre V6 of 440lbs and compare it to the weight of a 3.5 litre V8. Oh that's not fair because "Turbo". Ok, now we have to increase the displacement to say, 5.0 litres from the 445lb Coyote V8 to level the playing field. But wait, the Coyote only has about 450hp/420ft-lbs and the V6 has 647hp/550ft-lbs, what are we going to do? Ok, now add turbos or a supercharger to that Coyote and tell me how big it is and how much it weighs. I doubt if Ford is gonna put a McLaren or Ferrari V8 in the GT
