the Paint was originally created by BASF called Rainbow. It was the companies 2nd experimental paint scheme following the development of the Mystic paint, that was used specifally on Ford Mustang cobra's. Rainbow further extended the hue range beyond Mystics Blue/Green tones adding Yellow Orange and Cyan. (full…
Technically speaking the production of this car has been a tremendous blunder. The reality is that this car began development as far back as 2006, first public seen in 2007 appearing in Iron Man 1 and 2, 8 years of development!!!! really!? thats preposterous, far too long to be sitting in a think tank. a whole…
EARL SCHEIB!!!! YES
Ok so yes, the big news is the new FordGT concept. And IMO the jury is still out on its looks. But another limited run FordGT is not what the company needs. What Ford needs is a full production sportscar to rival the Corvette. Sure we all love another FordGT but a Full production FordGT on the level of a C7 wouldve…
Please tell me this is a joke!?
As for the EcoBoost, ok truth be told those engine are great, whats bad is the name.. EcoBoost
Lots to be desired in this concept, first and farmost it certainly doesnt look well thought out. Theirs load of design issues here. Clearly two design ideas hopelessly merged into one vehicles with a poor effort of blending those ideals together. disjointed is the term that comes to mind. For instance Lamborghini…
Car looks good and sounds incredible. seriously incredible. only gripe is that afterthought rear spoiler. doesnt really fit the car. they shouldve extended the cars rear deck lids spoiler.
true. amazing how the orange turn signals makes much of the front end work nicely, and without look so wrong.
thank goodness they cleaned up the front facia. prior versions looked lifted straight off acura's family sedans
pulling a G isnt really an absolute prowess of overall handling, its only part of a bigger picture.
i agree to some degree, but the c5's were at best straight line rockets, only the the original zr1 introduced a degree of sophistication and i use that term lightly, because 80's gen corvette were rolling trucks, at least thats how they felt. much of its glory was due to its change into a modern-esq design (shark) …
Yep agreed, nailed it with the old vette. The age old problem with american sports cars was that aged old people with a misguided vision of speed and performance were creating them. It all goes back to the 60's muscle car generation. The idea of a muscle car, and how it came to be, they basically stuck big engines in…
This is cool and all but to be honest it would be best if they did some form of cosmetic/functional change to the cars, to signify these are uniquely special even amongst
Umm.. so i guess all those 70's japanese anime cartoons were correct!
Although we would all love to see the next gen FordGT, i would moreso love to see such a car thats developed by Ford for full-production, not simply another limited run.
Lol now i certainly doubt this guy with a hole in his engine block had anything close to a normal mustang not to mention saleen. And as i recall saleen engines are mustangs engines so whats your point, your roush has a mustang engine as well. As for Roush ive never been impressed with there ideology. i mean all…
indeed
lol.. As a Saleen owner i can say i do recall some engine claims, but the reality is that those issues were Ford derived. And if you were a first buyer you would have know Saleens were not only covered by Saleen but also Ford, double warrantee!. In the past when Ford put out the modular engines, particularly the…
because the mustang has back seats its inherently creates the space for a mid engine layout, the problem is cost and drivetrain. (for the current car) the old LRA was almost perfect for the conversion. low, reduced space simple.
