Spotted : Ford GT
November 15th, 2008
The Ford GT was built by Ford between 2005 and 2006, and was bascially a re-creation of the Ford GT40 but Ford had foolishly sold the rights to use the name GT40 many years ago ! Built really as a celebration of 100 years of Ford it followed the traditional muscle car route of high power and great performance (in a straight line !).
In total 4,038 cars were produced with 3,596 sold in the US. So, that gives us just 442 for the rest of the world and hence just a handfull in this country. Styling wise its very similar to that of the original GT40 but just slightly larger in more areas (to pass current crash protection laws and give us all the toys we now demand like air con….) so its easy to say its a classic looking car.
