New Ford GT Supercar Unveiled -

[750hp]

With the number of times Evan has said "Petunia" in this thread, I won't ever be able to look at a 2000s Ford GT without thinking of a dainty little flower... Hardly the image Ford engineers would have been looking for.

Can we get started on a dumb name for the new one? I'll start with Daffodil.

Bougainvillea...?

"Orchid" would probably better fit its rare and pricey nature if you are looking for a botanical name. But I could have sworn I saw where Ford was referring to it as "Phoenix" though that may have been some kind of internal code.

Just how tall is this new version? More, or less than 40 inches? GT44? GT50?

Sorry. Just trying to differentiate the two "GTs". Maybe I'll just say gen 2 GT or 05/06 GT.

The petunia reference is fine Evan. Most Ford people and gear heads remember the designation. Much like the stillborn "Daisy" Cobra project.
