A nice pleasant surprise..., I clicked on my iPad EVO magazine, and there list the headline article: The EVO Final. For the 200th issue of the magazine, it decided to pick the best driver car within the magazine's 200 issues history. It pick 4 cars from each of the "car groups"; admittedly, I haven't flipped past the first 2 pages of this article yet..., so I don't know what makes up the 4 car groups. And, in addition to the 4 picked top cars, the magazine also picked a Wildcard to pit against these 4 cars. There is it...., the Wildcard that they picked is none other than our beloved FGT!!! To make my knees knock more...., it is a Heritage, which we all know is the fastest color (so freaking what!! Yes, my opinion is highly biased....haha)!! The article is very complimentary about the FGT design, origin, engineering, feel.... Go get yourself a copy of this EVO mag.

Yes that was my Heritage I got invited to do the shoot by David Jones
GT 101.
Evo had contacted him. It was all done in Anglesey and North Wales
it took 3 days in all. I took the Heritage instead of my White and Blue GT as they
requested. All the guys from Evo tested it and they were all raving about it.
The Elder Statesman was King.
I believe it made the top 5 but I have yet to see the article.
I feel very privileged to own 2 GT's

Just picked up a copy of this issue of Evo. Buy one, you''ll enjoy it!! So nice to see a 10 year old American car continue to get such great press even as its competition has evolved.

Owners of the Ford GT are one lucky group.

Is Evo a print mag? The nearest Barnes and Noble is 20 miles. lol.

Maybe someone would be kind enough to make a pdf file of the article.

Mine is about 50 miles. I wouldn't expect anyone to copy and paste a scan to respect copyright issues.

Yes, both printed and digital. I got the digital more than a month ago...., surely the printed ones would have been available for a few weeks by now.

Got a copy yesterday...they were very complimentary of the GT, said it could compete if released today with current supercars.

The FGT was one of the top 20 cars and made it to the final few cars. The Porsche GT3 won overall. Cool article & photos.
