I hope the picture is large enough. I sure would like to have the funds for 1

F---ing awesome!

Yup, that's a good dream. I think my next car might be a gt350. Definitely more attainable.

The configurator lets you build any combination you want. www.fordgt.com has a link to it.

It's even more sinister looking in matte black.

And the first concern isn't funds (500K by the time you add options and taxes and licenses) but first to be chosen.

And they just won at Laguna Seca yesterday. Ferrari had the pole too! I'm sure Ferrari folks aren't so happy this morning. Just like old times!:cool:

I was there at the race. The one thing you don't know is how weight penalties were distributed by IMSA. It's just not car vs car.

Can you explain a little? Thanks.

It's called balance of power (BoP) and includes boost and weight. The per race adjustments are published on the imsa web site

yup, didn't realize they're up to date.

Heading to Le Mans this year, can't wait to watch them run. Should be a very exciting race-

Sweet looking car but $500,000 for a V6? I don't like that, for that money I want a V8 or V12

Thank you. I will educate myself.;):cool:

I understand that having the funds are only part of the ownership interview. Only a very select few will be able to buy one. I love the Ford GT but I don't have the right pedigree.

It's Balance of Performance (not power)

He who has the performance, has the power.
