Ringing endorsement. FMC and Multimatic have a lot to be proud of.

It is a special car. There aren't many homologation-Le Mans winning production cars you can buy. Brands X and Y may have better spec sheets, but the racing pedigree and resulting driving dynamics of the GT is what sets it apart and makes it special.

What you cant buy a road going mid engine 911, or an M6 with the engine slammed back a foot, from the showroom?

What???.... you cant buy a road going mid-engine 911, or an M6 with the engine slammed back a foot, from the showroom?

BMW sells lots of 2 seat coupes with the radiator air flow vented out the top of the hood right??? The mid-engine 911 is the biggest joke of all. Wouldn't it be easier to just leave the cars as-is and get competitive with a quick & easy BOP adjustment?

The more I look at this the more amazed I am that Ford built this incredible new GT and put a "waiver free" homologation special into enthusiasts hands to enjoy and show. I've had this thing for 3 weeks and it blows me away every time I see it.

"Worth the wait." Couldn't be more true. I also think Chris Harris is able to pack more of the things that I care about into 5 minutes than any other sports car video journalist. Awesome dude driving an awesome car.
