Default Saw something and I do not know what it is

I was heading up from Farmington Hills last night and a silver car rolled up next to me.

It looked a lot like a RX-8, but had FORD emblems and completely different rear tail lights. It was silver and had GT on the sides.

I could not get more on the car as we were moving through traffic and it turned, but I have been trying to find out what it was.

Dearborn is not that far, I was wondering if it was something from FORD. I checked and could not find it.

It looks a LOT like a RX-8, with FORD emblems. It looked really nice.

Anyone got a clue?

Ford does own Mazda, so maybe a Ford version of an RX-8?

Ford were looking at a new Daytona Coupe - but you'd recognize that.

I looked at the cars suggested and it is not the SHO or the Mustang.

I did not go to the bar, although some days I think I should.

Qvale Mangusta >? J/K.

Lance from Superformance and I were talking at Laguna Seca this august, and he mentioned he wanted to do a GR1. -- maybe this is a Skunkwerks deal.

Looks a lot like a PANOZ.

Dang, that is a sharp car.

On the street it grabs your attention...like any Cobra would.

I think that's it.
