[Redlyne_mr2]

craziest? yes. best looking? no way....

If you got 250G's I can get you one right now

the 650hp version is a highly tuned rally version of the RS200.
Stock hp on that car was a mere 220hp. The RS200 held the record for 0-60mph sprint before the McLaren came around, but I think it recently reclaimed the title again (this time running at 1000hp! )

Did you know Tim Allen has one in his garage? An original that he drives quite often too.

i know this is going to start a war, but i think that it will be interesting...imo, this is the best looking ford ever...

The GT40..mmmmmmm...

I'm a fan of all types of car. Regardless if it's domestic, import (honda, toyota, nissan, even Kia's), or Euro. I like cars for what they are, not where they are from.

Sweet.

If I had the money (or won from lottery)

I would definitely spend it on GT40, those things look really low....

I think I read somewhere that GT40's 40 came from the height of the car...40 inches??? anyway....awesome car from ford

quote:
At 182 inches long, 77 inches wide, and 44 inches tall, the GT40 concept makes an aggressive visual statement from every angle. The original car received the numeric part of its name from its actual overall height. Achieving 40 inches for the concept was never desired. The GT40 concept was designed as a modern road car that would provide the presence of the racer and the comfort of a grand touring sportscar. Proportionally bigger than its predecessor in every dimension, the challenge was to increase the size without sacrificing the overall effect.

Holy cow, american muscle!

The GT40 is my all time favorite car. I have loved it for soooo long. Ther is a place in new zeland (I think) that makes the kit for it. Worked out to 40g's, and works on a mustang or pinto chassis. Ford was going to remake it to combat the viper. Not sure if it made it to production though.

wasn't there a prototype (i think it was yellow/orange) at a big auto show in detroit or something a couple of years ago???

edit: stupid giant pictures

Well, I can honestly say that I would rather have Hollywoods' 240sx with all he has done to it, than a stock GT40.I'm just not a fan of the styling/heritage behind the car, and I would rather have something newer that suits me.I can't say I've ever liked any american muscle. Euro supercars will always be my choice over muscle.
