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.

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...

You're expecting a special tarmac like the one from F1 approved tracks from an used airstrip huh? Funny

car doesn't have rear wheel steering, it has nothing on the cars with 600+ hp that do...so, it's track days are back 10 years ago, before even P1.

The car is not only a work of engineering art, its been built up to. With the GT40s in the 60s, then to the remake in 2005. The GT has a history that makes the car beautiful. It's built on years of knowledge and ideas. It's honestly one of the finest pieces of engineering in the world. There are certainly cars that are faster and better, no doubt, but the GT was meant to stand for the Ford name. And it does.

This thing sounds like an E-type V12!

[@khar_khuwa]

Please don't insult a master piece that the e type is. No doubt gt40 is a nice car, but this degraded versions sound track is nowhere near similar to that of the roaring V12 the E-type host's.

[@twotailedavenger]

@@khar_khuwa It sounds a lot more dignified and sophisticated than the old GT. And the E-Type V12 never really got to roar, considering it went on sale pretty much right as the gas crunch and stupid emissions stuff happened.

[@chrismalikoff9949]

It still has the very prettiest overhead view of any car I know. Simply gorgeous. Agree with the V8 though, or even better NA V10...

Funny how they have always given Hammond crap for wanting to be American and then watch him gush over American vehicles.

While a V8 would add appeal, it wouldn't really make sense in terms of what the car was designed for. The V6 makes more than enough power. In fact the LeMans winning car had to have it's power output reduced by over 100 hp compared to the road car, to meet balance of performance.

[@joelf1355]

What was that famous quote? Adding power makes you faster on the straights; subtracting weight makes you faster everywhere

[@taylorc2542]

The V6 was a huge mistake and pretty much every conversation about this car turns into "should have had a V8". This car was a marketing exercise, and on that level it was a big letdown.

[@Harmonic14]

The race car was homologated, so roughly the same as the others in its class. Lol

[@bramcurtis6900]

The version sold for the street actually makes more power than the race care due to the limits in it's class. You are literally buying a purpose built race care with turn signals. And it is a rolling piece of art.
