Seriously, I would have liked a "Le Ford" much better. This way it just looks like a copied name.

Hopefully more specific info on pricing and availability so all the speculation can stop.

what are the exciting news to be revealed ?

Unfortunately I missed it by 15 minutes and while reading the press releases I did not find any real news, other than it has a 7 gear ford transmission, over 600hp and does not consume much fuel.

The Mark III is Chassis number GT40M3/1107
It belongs to Ford and is part of their heritage collection based at Dagenham in the UK along with GT40P/1008

It started life as a Silver car, was subsequently painted white and very recently red. It used to be Walter Hayes' company car. I'm lucky enough to have driven it at both on the road and at Ford's Dunton Tech Centre.
