It needs to be a balance. The way is see it if people don't think ford can build a car to the GTHO's Legend, then FPV shouldn't have a GT at all. Everyone looks at this subject with rose colored glasses. The GTHO doesn't need to be the fastest, most powerful 4 door, it needs to be the symbol of what extremes Ford Au can go to now. It doesn't need fancy body add-ons, nor a fancy interior to differentiate it from a GT. The GTHO was a shot across GM-H bows...Ford/FPV need to do it again, let HSV and the rest of australia know that ford can build a car that rumbles into the desire of a young man. Twin force/twin screw, either way will do.

Most of us have a fair idea of what the new engine will be, we await Ford to confirm it. |

This is all real fantasy stuff ....... and the mention of a V10 justs gets me all goose bumpy. In reality? They won't build a car that everyone wants but no one will buy .... thats reality ..... and sometimes reality hurts.
