Ford GT (Mk II 656 PS) specs

The Mach-E wasn't when I realized Ford didn't care about its customers. It was actually this EcoBoost 3.5 GT. It is a fantastic handling car, but a terrible performance car for the value. Although rare, a 60-degree V8 should have been built based off that V6 in order to keep it built-in for the GT's platform. Cars with 60-degree V8 engines are usually compatible with 90-degree V6s. The 60* V8 is like a reverse 90* V6...longer, but narrower.

I would advise against another 90-degree V8 GT though as that block has been a bit too much affiliated with the Mustang and F-Series models, unless they could somehow turn it into a 180-degree variant (like they did with the Voodoo!).

Not the road car, but someone has been taking the Mk IV to different tracks and destroying everything in site. he did a 1:18 at Laguna Seca and a 1:57 at COTA.

This car is really good looking, I just wish the acceleration figures were better because they're honestly beyond pathetic for a car of this caliber. Track performance is good for the specs, you can't expect this to get near a GT2 RS or a Pista if you don't even give it Cup 2 R to begin with. So considering the car is on base Cup 2s laptimes are fairly decent

Ford GT.

I don't think people understand how freaking insane this thing looks in person. Literally only a few cars come even remotely close. A Koenigsegg One:1? Ferrari SP3 Daytona? Pagani Huayra R? And I think that's it. This will be a very hot take but even the P1 and LaFerrari aren't that visually appealing compared with the GT. The Ford GT beats literally everything in it's price range when it comes to looks.

Hello all.
It seems the last Ford GT has been delivered to a motor dealer in the US.(Michigan?)
Therefore there are very few brand new ones still up for sale.
And there is no word about a hybrid replacement.

Safe driving from Flt158.

I hate to be the one to say this, but I do not believe that the second generation GT will appreciate in value in the same way that the first generation one did.

The first model was a supercharged V8 competing successfully against most hypercars of its day. Basically the Ferrari SF90 Stradale and Chevy Corvette E-Ray of its day combined.

The second model was matched or beaten by cars costing between 1/5 and 3/5 of its MSRP even though it had a twin-turbo V6.

This post has received too much negative feedback and is hidden. Click here to show it anyway.

Here's another supercar for the chop: the Ford GT.
It will end production at some stage in 2023.
How sad!

The oil change is HOW much on a Ford GT?

Motortrend, Ford GT "spanks" Lamborghini Aventador SVJ and THEN it tries it on with the Bugatti Chiron Pur Sport in a decider race showoff!

Except NO Bugatti race! They'd BETTER bloody time it AND SHOW IT!🤦

Ford GT HOTLAPS at Laguna Seca PLUS apparently the McLaren Senna AND 765LT!🔥

🧐

Unlike the GT, its indirect successor will be a series-production super-GT

A special announcement from John Hennessey, quote>"HPE DOES NOT PLAN TO OFFER ANY PERFORMANCE UPGRADES FOR THE NEW FORD GT AT THIS TIME. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN OFTEN BUT SOME CARS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE MODIFIED. IN OUR HUMBLE OPINION, THE NEW FORD GT IS ONE OF THESE CARS."

John it's the one bloody car that DID NEED some electronic "enhancements?"

😂

The Ford GT can do 100-200MPH= 29 plus 0-100MPH= 6.2= 0-200MPH= 35.2 seconds!

Feel that Ecological Boost power!

The Ford GT's acceleration is the exact reason why engine inertia is important. If this car had produced the same power and even the same torque out of a larger engine — say, a 5.0-liter V-8 — that peak torque would start very early in the range. The problem with the EcoBoost engine is that it can't handle that much power and torque without a huge turbocharger, and that's what decreases the engine inertia and makes the car unstable. There is no replacement for displacement even when it comes to supercharging and turbocharging.

The previous Ford GT had a 5.4L supercharged V-8 and that car is not only already equally as fast as this one, but it makes more than the advertised 550 hp (only underrated so that it wouldn't officially touch the established Hypercar Big 3 of the time — CGT, McF1, and Enzo).

Disclosure: Drag coefficient, frontal area, and curb weight figures are estimates of my own; not copied from manufacturers or independent tests.

2005 Ford GT
Drag coefficient: 0.338 Cd
Frontal area: 19.40 sq. ft. (x1.2 for mirrors and ground clearance)
Curb weight: 3492 lb (+165 lb for driver)
Top speed: 211.89 mph (verified @Nardo)
= 545 rwhp (rounded up)

2017 Ford GT
Drag coefficient: 0.310 Cd
Frontal area: 19.63 sq. ft. (x1.2 for mirrors and ground clearance)
Curb weight: 3313 lb (+165 lb for driver)
Top speed: 213.xx mph (verified @JBPG; rounded up to 214 mph regardless)
= 520 rwhp (rounded up)

Ford GT: is a track oriented supercar for 500k to up to a million
Also Ford GT: is outmatched by a Ferrari on most tracks for half the price ;)

Just buy an MC20 if you want a fast and actually pretty V6 supercar

So the finest manufacturers in terms production portfolio from hatchbacks to hypercars are FORD and MERCEDES-BENZ. Leave your thoughts below>

@FastestLaps, is it fine if I add the "660hp" version? Besides the power add-on, everything appears to be the same...

Based on rumors they might be making a v8 send off edition

Also pulled the 60-186MPH or time off the Johnny Bohmer top speed Ford GT test. The display is a direct link to a GPS readout and the timings are off directly related YouTube counters. There could be variances.

60-186MPH= 22 seconds plus 3 seconds 0-60MPH= 0-300km/h= 25 seconds
0-200MPH worked out exactly the same way= 35 seconds

Etc.

Finally managed to get the FULL figures from the Car and Driver test with results and full scans>

Thank You to the original collator!

Imagine paying 500k for a Ford that's slower than the whole competition.
