Automotive Guide The Ford GT Overview

By: Tim Allen
Automotive Guide

The Ford GT is the remake of the 1966 Le Mans victor vehicle called the GT40. The original GT40 was a great looking vehicle, but this original GT has a spectacular design. I’m normally fast to go on about about a new design thought. But the more I looked in the region of this vehicle, the more approbation I have for this job of art. And the designers & engineers had to factor in constant aerodynamics at 200 MPH that would have flipped the original representation on its top.

The 5.4-liter engine fills the total end of the vehicle, and the supercharged V-8 produces a blazing surge of 550 horsepower. For the fans: the GT’s 0-to-60 time is just 3.3 seconds, and it takes just 11.6 seconds to get ahead of a ¼-mile.

Once surrounded by the vehicle you'll find there is no glove box, no side-pocket, no goblet proprietor. But this is closely what I fancy in this kind of vehicle – all industry at propelling you with speed and very little in the way of space in the cockpit as I take on the g-forces and hairpin turns.

If people aren't impressed when they first see the outside of the GT (although I'm not sure how that would be possible) they have to be when they get inside. It has the standard life-size ruby “Start” switch that many expensive cars have been made with.

The GT is straightforward to launch and power ahead in traffic, with influence delivered from the included supercharger. The Ford GT will definitely grab the attention of fellow drivers. You'll find people who are pointing and smiling when you drive by. If they can't see they'll hear the roar or grizzly sound of the engine. And that is one top reason to own and drive a Ford GT around.
