OK, I haven't seen anybody post this yet so I thought I would.

Ford has anounced the offical numbers for the GT to be 550 hp @ 6500 rpm and 500 lb.-ft @ 3,750 rpm. Thats up from the 500 HP Ford kept saying because their now using a twin screw s/c.

Now recently I came across something interesting about the GT.

Clicky



Now, I know Ford tends to underrate their stuff lately but DAMN, if thats true then thats some serious underrating.

All I have to say is...



What does everybody else think?

 

DAYUM!!!

565 to the wheel? With traction problems? Lemme go change my pants.

 

nice. how much is this car going for?

200 k or so . .

 

I have heard in the area of 130K. But dealers are marking them up big time.

Or so Iv heard.

 

oh yeah, msrp i think is 139k? Theres quite a bit of markup though, and that will probably be true for quite awhile.

 

DAMN!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!


Soul for sale - black as coal but can be washed with one visit to confessional...asking $175,000 firm or will take even trade for 2005/2006 Ford GT.

 

The pro that won at Doral with the eagle on the first playoff hole won $900k and a '05 Ford GT.

 

Don't think the public can buy one of them. THey are producing very few, according to the people at Doral....

PEacE....................

Thats a TON of power for that car!!!

I wonder though, why they stayed with the undersquare truck cylinder dimensions for an exotic car.

Seems like they could have at least gone with the new "cammer" 5.0L cylinder/block design to be closer to sqaure on thier way to 5.4L. Probably could have picked up another 50hp this route... not that another 50hp on a car they can't even dyno is needed

 

Daddy likey

 

Funny speaking of this found out that Matt Kennseth got one for winning the Nascar tittle last year. Damn 4 million and a car.

 

We are seeing 625 on the dyno

That is insane HP ratings for that car! I want one, I'll sell a kidney to get one.
