The GT90 is an amazing car. I remember seeing it at the 1994 Chicago Auto Show. It was on a turn wheel and was right in the middle of the Ford area and drew a huge crowd.

I remember reading stories about the car and its 4 turbo chargers at the press debut. They said they had to let it run for a bit because it smoked real bad on start up and they were ready to drive it on stage and ran out of gas!!! They had to push it on stage

Awesome car non the less :thumbsup

The GT90 was held at the SVT HQ at the centennial. 2 duratecs welded together w/4 turbos.

I looked over that GT90 in person while in Tulsa at the SAAC event back in 1995. It was pretty cool, but the designers got a little carried away with the "triangle theme" of the concept. Too much of a good thing, doesn't necessarily make a nice car.

Personally, I like the new GT much better.
