2005-2006 Ford GT40

[Cobra #3170]

Do you mean the Ford GT, they cannot be called GT-40 because Ford no longer owns the name. If that is the car you mean, I purchased one about a year and a half ago. It is an excellent car and superior to anything in a kit or fot that matter the original. The engine and chassis are engineered to the nth degree and are very reliabe. Handling is so precise it makes you a better driver than you are and it has a top speed of 205 MPH (regulated). The car incorporates true ground effects and has a rear diffuser and front shelf that work at speed. I have driven the car 162 MPH on a narrow and highly crowned bumpy road and was able to stay in my lane which speaks volumes about it's stability. The transaxle is so efficient that power loss throgh it is on the order of 5%, this means that a bone stock car will have about 535 hp at the tires. If you want more power they make undersize pulleys or oversize twin screw super chargers that will boost power beyond what most people can or would use. The chassis stiffness in bending and torsion puts the original to shame. You could change the alinement settings, lower the car, put in some racing shocks and springs and a set of Hoosier radials and kick a** at any track day. In short I believe you would be very happy with a Ford GT.
