2005 Ford GT 40

I was cruising along the highway on I 96 in Grand Rapids, Michigan when this sweet car flew past me while I was doing 80mph.... A ways further down the highway it was pulled over and i saw that it was a 2005 Ford GT 40, definitely a badass car!

The 2005 is called the Ford GT. GT 40 was named as such because it was 40 inches tall, the '05 is 43 inches tall. He's trying to tell you, the new one is called, the Ford GT.

anyway, that's nice. I've seen a truck unloading them at our ford dealership, so i stopped by to take a look, definitely a VERY nice car. I wasn't allowed to drive them, they were meant for "serious buyer's only", but i got to take a seat and the dealer was more than happy to take me for a small ride. The exhaust note sounds so beautiful. my favorite color they had was the yellow with black racing stripes. Red didn't cut it for me in person, not on the GT.

I can't wait to ride in the upcoming GTX's.

Re: 2005 Ford GT 40

last year i was going back into my town and i passed a gas station where a white one with red stripes was sittin. there where two other cars there, a guy i knows prelude, and a 13 second gti. i was in my slow a$$ 95 corolla but anyway. we all pulled out onto the highway and they all got on it, as did i just to see what happened. the prelude got owned, and the gti was a bit behind. just goes to show how fast they are. i dont know what they run stock, but it whopped a 13 second gti. so...whats their 1/4 time??
