Summary
The Ford GT feels, looks and drives like a car costing much more than it does.On top of which, it's easily competitive in every tangible measure with all but the most exotic of the cars wearing the Italian Prancing Horse. And it's a Ford. What a statement to make.

| | Nice looking car, great ride, and quick. But I think that the cost should be a bit lower, and add some horsepower. Overall I am very pleased with its Performance and I think everybody should drive this car at least once. Recommended! | | posted by Zenner on Mar 05 2006 | | |
