2003 Gt40

the ford concept roadshow truck... thing... had it's last stop in phoenix today. and the premire car was *dramatic pause* the new GT40! i've decided i need one... anyone who wishes to contrubute to the fund pm me and we'll work something out... :D but reguardless... and aside from too many straight lines, and the mustang influenced sides... this is one of the most beautiful cars i've seen in a long while

kick some ass with this Gt40---it isn't pretty---but it better whip the Viper right in its ass.

not pretty?!?!!? what are you:bonghitte ?

I don't know----it looks like a race car-----not a beauty car------but heck----it better act like a race car.

agreed

ist just the color on the concept version. I hope it lets a Viper have it-------because I'm damn well sick of the Viper glory. Its gonna have a hell of power plant though. 5.4 liter supercharged. Maybe you know this one---I can't seem to find any info anywhere---maybe its still too early. I noticed that the new SVT Lightning----is using a Lysholm blower---and some unsusual 'recharging' intercooler technology----which I was still confused about after reading the press release. Is the Gt40---using an Eaton roots or the Lysholm roots? has it been announced yet? Are they pre-selling ? If so-----how many purchased approxamately. I know the 03 cobras------had about 7,000 presold before they went into production-----thats pretty fricken wicked!

well, as far as i know, there are 3 being made in 2003, and they should go into production of about 1000 a year. and as far as the engine goes... all i know is that Saleen is doing the work on it.

Production numbers are supposed to be something like 700 for 2004 and the same for 2005.

I have one on order. I haven't decided on the color combination yet. I am leaning on the original Gulf colors, light blue and orange.

i didn't think they were going to make that many... at least in the first year. maybe i will get to drive one then!

As I have heard from inside sources from Ford directly...

only 3 for 2003 to commemmorate the victories in LeMans in the 60s
then around 700 per year. More likely less would be my guess.

ha ha! see i was right! *that's amazing*

I hope that thing eats Ferraris for breakfast. Strip and Track.

o ya look at her!
