Scott I I disagree. Doug has been getting way to friendly to the manufacturers recently. He does this to get mor cars to review as the manufacturers know he'll give a good review-its a win win but we don't get a real review. The only bad comment he made was the standard: "it's bumpy"
@Conor Chambers -- what manufacturers? I can't remember the last time I filmed with a manufacturer-provided car. Also, I paid my own way to Utah for this review.
This is by far the finest car of 2018. It breathes the love and enthusiasm of everyone envolved in creating this piece of art. And it is so far ahead, in any aspect of design, of any super car of its generation. Seeing it initially in Le Mans this year can only be described as an honest "experience". Just everything right, almost perfect, with this, maybe the most emotional car of the passed 17 years.
I see a lot of people hating about the interior and the v6 engine. Ford has built this car for the track and not for people to enjoy on a McDonalds Drive-thru. I also can't understand why people are refusing to accept that smaller engines with new technologies can produce more power than bigger ones, with less weight. If you want a noisy v8 then buy a muscle car, this isn't one. There is thousands of engineers building this masterpiece, testing it, pushing it to the limits and you come say your Honda sounds better, pathetic. Each brand and car has its forces and weaknesses but we've all got to admit that Ford has done an AMAZING job with the GT. The design only makes up for its flaws. Enjoy your day fellas
you say they built it for the track, but still they're making sacrifices in order for it to be street legal... seems just a bit pointless, no? why not just go all out and make it a full-blooded racecar then. 500k is also a very bold price tag for this imo.
oaamrane i agree plus the reason i hate the 2005 GT was that it was too "American" to be a supercar and I would rather have 2017 GT or the Saleen S7 over that car.
@@jotarokujo6562who really cares besides you and people obsessed with speed? Maybe you just like car history and supercar design. If someone wanted a fast car they could've got a number of things that look ugly as shit but go fast but that's not the point of this video at all

So stop complaining about the interior. 2) this is the exact design (chassis, body, and engine except the mammoth spoiler ) used in the Le mans race machines. It is a race car homologated for the streets. 3.) Its not as v8 for a reason. The v8 wouldve made less power and ford wouldnt have been able to do adaquit forced induction to a v8.

Your Boy actually, its that price from ford. But u have to be approved in order to get it. If ur not, and u wamt to buy this car, u r going to be spending a hell of a lot more to get it. All 1000 people had already been selected.
ryan dibble yea, and another fact, Ford selected people that would actually drive the car, that's why most collectors were rejected from buying it because Ford didn't want the car collecting dust
Carsten Edison At this point I just deleted his response bc he is quite an idiot and seems to not know that "racecar" doesn't literally mean "kitted up super GT car with sponsorship stickers" lol
This is a race car, people. The price does not matter to the average citizen. They could sell it for 100k and 90% of you (me included) would still be unable to afford it. Just enjoy the car for what it was developed for.
"They could sell it for 100k and 90% of you (me included) would still be unable to afford it" ...not so fast. If you're a homeowner with a decent job, then you can probably swing a loan for a $100k car. There's nothing about that car that says that it's worth $500k other than the resale value.
I see a lot of "this can't out perform [pick random googled car]". I guess people don't really realize that this car finished 1, 3, and 4 at le mans beating Porsche, Ferrari, Chevrolet, Aston Martin, and Nissan.
plainlogic I'd take an aventador over this any day. I don't care if it's faster or not. When you're paying top dollar for a car you want an exotic engine. The block is the same one that they put a freaking v6 fusion. Just with stronger internals and twin turbos. Lame.
ImASavage because it's only fast because of the high boost pressure of the turbos. A twin turbo v6 isn't nearly as reliable as a v8 that's built but still naturally aspirated. Like the 5.2 in the Shelby gt 350. Its just as fast but will be fast for many years to come. This engine I'd have it blew up in less than six months.
sorry but no you wouldn't lol it's made to be run under intense conditions... racing. That's why they didn't boost the shit out of it. Ya, they could have made it make as much as a 5.2, but reliability, weight, and size all mean v6 is the way to go. The whole point of the car was to be light, quick, and aero dynamic. The bulk of the v8 would have been just harder to deal with and it wasn't necessary I've never driven a car that wasn't a v8, I drive a ls1 daily. I like my v8s. But you need to realize application. just because you can make up a v8s weight in power, you still added weight. and weight is the enemy in racing. This car is most likely going to be one of the best, if not the best production race car to date
So very WRONG!!! The McLaren 720s has a V8 and weighs less so Ford did not come out with some super light car that required a V6, they just don't have the experience in building super cars to compete with the big boys. The car barely beat a McLaren 675LT on Ford's chosen track, we all know the 720s is alot faster then the 675LT so the Ford GT will get spanked and the 720s is a lot less money.
Not Hitler - Go to V.I.R. (Virginia International Raceway) Aug 23-25 and you'll see the 2 Ford/Chip Ganassi Race Team Ford Gts on the track. In the last 2 races they placed 1st and 3rd at Lime Rock Park and 1st and 2nd at Road America.
Wow everybody seems to hate that this car exists. Seems like it all boils down to: 1) It's a Ford 2) It costs 500k 3) Everybody is talking about it Yes I get it, it's expensive but not for the market segment it's competing in. Seriously, Ferrari and Lamborghini make models that cost 6-8 times more than this and they get the pass? Even more ridiculous is the notion that a Tesla sedan or hopped up street car is a better track car. By the way the McLaren P1 has a similarly spartan interior and costs more than double..Judging by the previous generation, this car will only become more valuable in the future. Anyway I'm sure all 1000 owners will be extremely pleased with their purchase and won't be envying corvette owners or looking for approval in the RUclips comments section, so why make a big deal?
Ryan David Because Ferraris have the performance to back up their prices, the P1 is a highly advanced 900 HP hypercar, and Lamborghini is Lamborghini. We haven't seen what the new GT can do yet, and with cars like the 720s coming out with performance figures that are apparently faster than a P1, gives you a ton of comfort, and costs considerably less than a GT? That's why a lot of people are questioning it. I get it, the GT is a completely raw supercar that is at home on the track, but I still don't know about that price.
Daniel D. But it yields 600+ horsepower and I forgot the torque but for the price and designing and all the wonderful quirks I say it's worth the price of 500k and the fact that it's made for equality for track and road, while as Lamborghini and McLaren and Ferrari are either a well thought out track car and shitty road car or a great road car and a shitty track car.
@@marktaudac1ty150 oh I'm sure it's got it where it counts. That cars all racing inside. It is lighter and those echo boosts are winning races all over the place and built up the street engines are faster. I got faith in the damn thing. I just thinks it's changes are to extreme to be a GT40. Should have rebadged it.
Ravelord Nito Yes, Federal Law. 3-Year, 36,000 miles. Became mandatory maybe a decade ago for ALL cars sold in USA. Before that Ferrari, Lambo, etc. could get away with only offering 1 or 2 years based on their limited production numbers, but then the DOT put an end to that.
IT IS AMAZING, BUT.... 500,000k goes a long way in the super car market. I have read many of the comments, and totally understand that you are paying for a "track ready" super car. I get it. It is gorgeous on the outside, but for a half mil, I would want the speed, the handling, AND the luxury inside. McClaren 675LT, 5 Acura NSX's, 2 ferrari 488's, 4 Porche 911 Turbo's?... that last one... 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. OR... if you really love American.. what about the c8 corvette that is coming soon? Gonna be AMAZING... I want to reiterate (just for the trolls who are itching to lite me up..) I get it. This is for the person who wants something that can.. with the push of a button... go from the curvy mountain roads of Colorado to the curves of Road America.. I get it.. just not what I would I want to spend my money on. Side note; if you apply for this car, and they accept you, (what I read, and heard) they won't sell it to you as a collector item. They want drivers, and pretentious collectors need not apply. SO.. unless you are ready to spend gratuitous amounts of money on fuel, tires, insurance, and body work..not to mention the car itself... this is not a car for you.. or me.
Yeah obviously ford wanted to make a track car but if you really want to explore I say just buy a shelby gt350r it MIGHT even spank the Ford gt off the line well then again the gt is super light but I can't lie this is a really good looking car and is very unique
Performance > Number of Engine Cylinders I hate when people say... It's just a V6. If you can get the power from the V6 instead of a V8 and shave some weight. Why would you want the V8? There was a goal to hit a certain amount of power and that was achieved.
Lucas Tseh No. That is not always the case. It really matters on the quality parts, materials, and tune. A properly built and tuned engine should last a very long time.
You no nothing about cars omg, mercedes making the best Mercedes ever and is a is a 1.6..................... 1.6........V6 whith 1020HP, These engines are low displacement but are much more sophisticated\Robust\ and resistant and made with super alloys What ignorance
The horrible story of a man that was forced to connect his youtube account to google+ several other journalists may have used it first. He mentioned int the beginning that he had to wait to try it.
This is probably one of the videos that took Doug's channel to the next level, and then the "Doug is the type of guy" comments started coming. If you search "ford GT" on RUclips, this is the number one video
One of the best sounding cars ever imo. I love the simple interior with the insane exterior and the fact that Its actually just a Ford is really cool to me.
BrodyTheGreatDane, I left the video a quarter in exactly for that reason, I usually give his work a miss, simply because of his presentation format. The hot Ford suckered me in, a half million$ sucks though, bet they've sold out though, smh.
People change once their thousand people turn into millions. But, 11 million subscribers and you're still the same Doug we all fell in love with years ago. Thank you!
Or so it looked, could simply be a very lil dusty and the dashboard's colour and the natural lighting could've just made it look more dirtier than it is... Edit : Lol no it isn't dirty, the dashboard's exterior is made of something called "I dont remember its name but its dark and it feels spongy and very soft" thing. I've seen that thing irl and it does make things look dirty
People don't seem to realize that the people purchasing one of these can wipe their ass with 500k. Also at this tier cars are investments and will appreciate in value.
It's worth the money because when you do decide to sell it, you will probably get double or triple what you paid for it or more depending on when you sell it.
Except certain cars. The 2005 GT had an MSRP of around 140K and is currently selling for $250- 350K. It's rare, and obviously the manufacturer wants every penny of value it can get so it's just as indicative of supply-and-demand as well as not selling at the best price to begin with. I don't know if this particular GT will do the same, but it's really cool none-the-less.
огромная эрекция You have to wait 2 years to sell it, part of the contract. But you can’t buy it anyway from Ford, you had to apply to buy it, and basically if you weren’t famous, your application was tossed in the garbage.
I like how the exterior looks like something that shits all over any other sports car, and the interior has almost no design in it... it's almost cheap looking. I really dig it. Want to see an all analogue version of the interior.
Glad it doesn't have a luxury interior, that means it's probably more reliable than most european cars which often have horrible electrical issues because their infotainment system is where the main focus is.
Ulysses Martinez Never mind, the fact that a 4/5/6 point harness is not DOT approved, and so your driving without your seatbelt on. Police WILL ticket you! Just check out the racing forums, if you don't believe me.
I'm dumbfounded to see this car fly over so many heads in the comments. The Ford GT was homologated for racing reasons! They just want to win. They could give two shits about the interior. This car reminds me of the 90s GT1 era super car craze where the cars would break your back on the street. This is much more refined and livable. Ford is brave to wander into strict racing development, that's why this car is so expensive, it needs to cover all the huge costs it comes with and to be slightly profitable. These things usually run a massive loss for the company. More manufactures should take Ford's role and create dedicated racing chassis. We would see some of the craziest cars ever built.
Cool info. I'm sure there are enough collectors out there that want it, and lord knows I think it's beautiful. I personally would never buy a 500K track day car, quite simply because there are many faster, more fun alternatives at a quarter of the price. But I'd never knock it, because it's an impressive machine, and think it'll bring a smile to the faces of any of the lucky people who will own one.
OGSiX33 I can agree with that, if you want a piece of automative history and a rare car that can truly perform it's worth it. Of course not as much value compared to a 488 in comfort features and such but I don't think the rich really care too much about a 200k premium with this car having investment potential as well.
Stirling Moss yeah if you're gonna pay 500k for a car I would atleast want a better looking interior... I could buy a huracan for less and it looks and sounds nicer than this turd
jack moore its like having a dog and calling it a cat and someone being like wow but it looks like and feels like a dog.... its a fucking race car bro.
jack moore Ever heard of the Formula Ford? Its an entry-level class of single seater for open-wheel formula racing. In other words a "race" car. Its also street legal.
dkphantomdk you'll get a girl driving anything that looks fast or expensive. If you think girls care whether or not it's a "true supercar" you must not know a lot about girls.
I was at the Rolex 24 a couple years ago. The Ford GT sounded a million times better than the Italian cars.. I know what you mean about the sound. Amazing.
3.2 sec @ 60 mph, 11.1 sec @ 130 mph. It's pretty fast. Especially for a street legal car you can buy yourself. The majority of cars faster than this are designed and engineered directly for racing (as in, designed for a driver and their team to race in), or performance electric.
Matt Delmonico the way I see it is when your going around the track its all about functionality. I see their point for it, but it isn't very visually appealing on the inside in my opinion as well. I won't be buying a 500k car either though lol
can't a Ford it

He was SHOCKED that the huge side air intakes were ACTUALLY FUNCTIONAL! on this half mill $ supercar!
Carsten Edison At this point I just deleted his response bc he is quite an idiot and seems to not know that "racecar" doesn't literally mean "kitted up super GT car with sponsorship stickers" lol
Dude GT's were first designed in the 60's to compete with Ferrari, lmao Ferrari's are race cars. Therefore Ford GT's are race cars, no roadsters....
This is a race car, people. The price does not matter to the average citizen. They could sell it for 100k and 90% of you (me included) would still be unable to afford it. Just enjoy the car for what it was developed for.
Joshua Nelson I respect you for that
Lol have you seriously deleted all the replies? you insenstive little shit
I don't even know how to do that, nor would I even want to.
Very well said
"They could sell it for 100k and 90% of you (me included) would still be unable to afford it"
...not so fast. If you're a homeowner with a decent job, then you can probably swing a loan for a $100k car.
There's nothing about that car that says that it's worth $500k other than the resale value.

Daniel M "why this car is shit." Lmao, a lot better than your civic
plainlogic I'd take an aventador over this any day. I don't care if it's faster or not. When you're paying top dollar for a car you want an exotic engine. The block is the same one that they put a freaking v6 fusion. Just with stronger internals and twin turbos. Lame.

Your joking right ? Lol 2 seater
Yeah the baby goes under the seat
why are people so caught up at the v6 if it can go 0 to 60 in 3.2 sec its better than most v8 and v12 this car is a race car
ImASavage because it's only fast because of the high boost pressure of the turbos. A twin turbo v6 isn't nearly as reliable as a v8 that's built but still naturally aspirated. Like the 5.2 in the Shelby gt 350. Its just as fast but will be fast for many years to come. This engine I'd have it blew up in less than six months.
sorry but no you wouldn't lol it's made to be run under intense conditions... racing. That's why they didn't boost the shit out of it. Ya, they could have made it make as much as a 5.2, but reliability, weight, and size all mean v6 is the way to go. The whole point of the car was to be light, quick, and aero dynamic. The bulk of the v8 would have been just harder to deal with and it wasn't necessary
I've never driven a car that wasn't a v8, I drive a ls1 daily. I like my v8s. But you need to realize application.
just because you can make up a v8s weight in power, you still added weight. and weight is the enemy in racing.
This car is most likely going to be one of the best, if not the best production race car to date
Are there cars with a triple sequentional transmission
So very WRONG!!! The McLaren 720s has a V8 and weighs less so Ford did not come out with some super light car that required a V6, they just don't have the experience in building super cars to compete with the big boys. The car barely beat a McLaren 675LT on Ford's chosen track, we all know the 720s is alot faster then the 675LT so the Ford GT will get spanked and the 720s is a lot less money.
ImASavage he is wrong it is 2.8 sec

Wow everybody seems to hate that this car exists. Seems like it all boils down to:
1) It's a Ford
2) It costs 500k
3) Everybody is talking about it
Yes I get it, it's expensive but not for the market segment it's competing in. Seriously, Ferrari and Lamborghini make models that cost 6-8 times more than this and they get the pass? Even more ridiculous is the notion that a Tesla sedan or hopped up street car is a better track car. By the way the McLaren P1 has a similarly spartan interior and costs more than double..Judging by the previous generation, this car will only become more valuable in the future. Anyway I'm sure all 1000 owners will be extremely pleased with their purchase and won't be envying corvette owners or looking for approval in the RUclips comments section, so why make a big deal?
Ryan David finally someone with brain
Ryan David Because Ferraris have the performance to back up their prices, the P1 is a highly advanced 900 HP hypercar, and Lamborghini is Lamborghini. We haven't seen what the new GT can do yet, and with cars like the 720s coming out with performance figures that are apparently faster than a P1, gives you a ton of comfort, and costs considerably less than a GT? That's why a lot of people are questioning it. I get it, the GT is a completely raw supercar that is at home on the track, but I still don't know about that price.
Daniel D. But it yields 600+ horsepower and I forgot the torque but for the price and designing and all the wonderful quirks I say it's worth the price of 500k and the fact that it's made for equality for track and road, while as Lamborghini and McLaren and Ferrari are either a well thought out track car and shitty road car or a great road car and a shitty track car.
Daniel D. The McLaren is amazing, but the question is whether it's twice as amazing. Is the performance and interior worth two GTs? I'm not sure.
Ryan David did you really just compare a ford to a P1? lmfao
So vacuuming the floor of that car wasn't considered before filming this?
It's for reasons of authenticity. It has to represent the USA.
Pfft, it doesn't even have a built in playstation 2. I know trash when I see it...

But does it come with a bumper to bumper warranty?
Ravelord Nito nope
Ravelord Nito show me the carfax!!!
Ravelord Nito Yea but it costs 500,000 for the warranty they'll even replace the whole car
Well, it does actually...
Ravelord Nito Yes, Federal Law. 3-Year, 36,000 miles. Became mandatory maybe a decade ago for ALL cars sold in USA. Before that Ferrari, Lambo, etc. could get away with only offering 1 or 2 years based on their limited production numbers, but then the DOT put an end to that.
IT IS AMAZING, BUT.... 500,000k goes a long way in the super car market. I have read many of the comments, and totally understand that you are paying for a "track ready" super car. I get it. It is gorgeous on the outside, but for a half mil, I would want the speed, the handling, AND the luxury inside. McClaren 675LT, 5 Acura NSX's, 2 ferrari 488's, 4 Porche 911 Turbo's?... that last one... 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. OR... if you really love American.. what about the c8 corvette that is coming soon? Gonna be AMAZING... I want to reiterate (just for the trolls who are itching to lite me up..) I get it. This is for the person who wants something that can.. with the push of a button... go from the curvy mountain roads of Colorado to the curves of Road America.. I get it.. just not what I would I want to spend my money on. Side note; if you apply for this car, and they accept you, (what I read, and heard) they won't sell it to you as a collector item. They want drivers, and pretentious collectors need not apply. SO.. unless you are ready to spend gratuitous amounts of money on fuel, tires, insurance, and body work..not to mention the car itself... this is not a car for you.. or me.
Rob Martin I agree
Yeah obviously ford wanted to make a track car but if you really want to explore I say just buy a shelby gt350r it MIGHT even spank the Ford gt off the line well then again the gt is super light but I can't lie this is a really good looking car and is very unique
This car not made to focus in luxury...
But you do realize that the GT IS only a track car and always will be.....even the previous version....in fact, ALL versions.........
Performance > Number of Engine Cylinders
I hate when people say... It's just a V6. If you can get the power from the V6 instead of a V8 and shave some weight. Why would you want the V8? There was a goal to hit a certain amount of power and that was achieved.
Victor Andrade small engine with big power wears down quicker and breaks easier I think? not sure though
That depends on how high quality the engine parts are. Obviously it should have quality parts that can withstand the amount of force the block makes.
Lucas Tseh No. That is not always the case. It really matters on the quality parts, materials, and tune. A properly built and tuned engine should last a very long time.
Don't worry, you wouldn't even have the oportunity, even tho you had that money.
You no nothing about cars omg, mercedes making the best Mercedes ever and is a is a 1.6..................... 1.6........V6 whith 1020HP, These engines are low displacement but are much more sophisticated\Robust\ and resistant and made with super alloys What ignorance
"I'm gonna floor it very briefly" then that look means everything ;)
"there are a million cool features in the car but im gonna start with possibly the coolest one...THE STEERING WHEEL !!"
The Ford GT has a cool wing.
''Does the Ghbli?''
If this v6 produced 1 million hp people would still bitch cause it's not a v8
Biff Smith v12
pretty much lmao
Who wants a million hp in a v6? that's right no one.
Boosted 5.0 it was a joke...
Yea because people want the sound of a V8 engine. It does't have anything to do with horsepower, no is denying that this car performs.
That background is beautiful. Go Utah.
Too many snarky Mormons.

The real question is: Why is it so dirty inside?
The horrible story of a man that was forced to connect his youtube account to google+ several other journalists may have used it first. He mentioned int the beginning that he had to wait to try it.
It's a press car probably with allot of people getting in and out and doing a couple laps for Journalism.
My question exactly
It's probably owned by whatever track he's driving on. 3+ different people use it everyday.
To me is does not look dirty
Where is the 'Doug is the type of guy' comments?
Ali Kazmi ..Dougs the type of guy that has to use the trunk lid release button from inside the trunk on a daily basis
This is an older video.
Doug is the type of guy to wear a racing harness AND a seatbelt just for added safety
This is probably one of the videos that took Doug's channel to the next level, and then the "Doug is the type of guy" comments started coming. If you search "ford GT" on RUclips, this is the number one video
Doug is the type of guy to not bitch about dead jokes.
One of the best sounding cars ever imo. I love the simple interior with the insane exterior and the fact that Its actually just a Ford is really cool to me.
Doug is the type of guy who keeps lint in his pocket, just to take it out every so often and smell it.
I'm dead
thanks for letting us stare at your face instead of showing us how it looks out the front when driving lol
BrodyTheGreatDane Plus he never shuts up so we can't hear the engine while he's driving the car.
BrodyTheGreatDane Then spent the first 10 mins talking about the dials on the wheel.

Prashant Gnawali that’s views not subs
In the comments: a bunch of people who want a fancy interior in a homologated race car for the street
and all drill on mclaren F1 with even more basic cabin
Most people don't realize that this is a homogolation car. Kind of a cheat in my opinion.
Derek Ferrell bro this car only has 600 horsepower quit hyping this piece of shit car up as a race car
it won le mans lol
Derek Ferrell but the interior of the ford is horrible..it looks like its from the 1980's..ZR1 makes it look silly in every aspect...
the inside was dirty af
Or so it looked, could simply be a very lil dusty and the dashboard's colour and the natural lighting could've just made it look more dirtier than it is...
Edit : Lol no it isn't dirty, the dashboard's exterior is made of something called "I dont remember its name but its dark and it feels spongy and very soft" thing. I've seen that thing irl and it does make things look dirty
It's a kind of fabric or something that is very very soft it only looks dirty but it isnt.If you see one in real life youll probs no
they didnt bother to even use a lil vacuum cleaner for the carpet and the interior
@Satya Patel @Tae Mo Alcantara.
They had been driving it around the track all day what do you expect
My favorite quirk is the same light controls that they put on their $13,000 fiesta
Kenneth Cypret yeah..well they are good light controls. Why make it different?
Fiesta has different light controls btw.
I was thinking more Michael Shannon
mxt mxt considering maserati has Chrysler light controls and nobody freaks out I doubt that.
But it's a Ford with Ford light control. Not a "luxury exotic" Maserati with a shitty Fiat light stalk.
Lets take a moment to aprecciate how beaultiful the mountains behind are
People don't seem to realize that the people purchasing one of these can wipe their ass with 500k. Also at this tier cars are investments and will appreciate in value.

Way to go Ford...I asked my buddy at my favorite Ford dealership how he feels about the new GT... He said, " Now it is our turn "
It's worth the money because when you do decide to sell it, you will probably get double or triple what you paid for it or more depending on when you sell it.
Except certain cars. The 2005 GT had an MSRP of around 140K and is currently selling for $250- 350K. It's rare, and obviously the manufacturer wants every penny of value it can get so it's just as indicative of supply-and-demand as well as not selling at the best price to begin with.
I don't know if this particular GT will do the same, but it's really cool none-the-less.
Terry king is right a ford gt just sold for 1.2 mill at a auction.
Who the fucks gonna buy a v6 car for more than half a mill.
огромная эрекция You have to wait 2 years to sell it, part of the contract. But you can’t buy it anyway from Ford, you had to apply to buy it, and basically if you weren’t famous, your application was tossed in the garbage.
DESTROYER67732 ignorant
I like how the exterior looks like something that shits all over any other sports car, and the interior has almost no design in it... it's almost cheap looking. I really dig it. Want to see an all analogue version of the interior.
@Eau Rouge - The Germans would refer to it as a "spartan" interior - devoid of nonsensical crap like cup holders, etc.
It's a car made for performance not luxury
hey i like your pfp, tfto by yes
Glad it doesn't have a luxury interior, that means it's probably more reliable than most european cars which often have horrible electrical issues because their infotainment system is where the main focus is.
4 year old design still looks like it's from 2030.

Ulysses Martinez Never mind, the fact that a 4/5/6 point harness is not DOT approved, and so your driving without your seatbelt on. Police WILL ticket you! Just check out the racing forums, if you don't believe me.
Someone didn't watch the end of the video
17:17
I'm dumbfounded to see this car fly over so many heads in the comments. The Ford GT was homologated for racing reasons! They just want to win. They could give two shits about the interior. This car reminds me of the 90s GT1 era super car craze where the cars would break your back on the street. This is much more refined and livable. Ford is brave to wander into strict racing development, that's why this car is so expensive, it needs to cover all the huge costs it comes with and to be slightly profitable. These things usually run a massive loss for the company. More manufactures should take Ford's role and create dedicated racing chassis. We would see some of the craziest cars ever built.
Cool info. I'm sure there are enough collectors out there that want it, and lord knows I think it's beautiful. I personally would never buy a 500K track day car, quite simply because there are many faster, more fun alternatives at a quarter of the price. But I'd never knock it, because it's an impressive machine, and think it'll bring a smile to the faces of any of the lucky people who will own one.
OGSiX33 I can agree with that, if you want a piece of automative history and a rare car that can truly perform it's worth it. Of course not as much value compared to a 488 in comfort features and such but I don't think the rich really care too much about a 200k premium with this car having investment potential as well.
Stirling Moss It's a shame that this isn't the top comment. So many uneducated, popular opinions running around on RUclips.
Stirling Moss yeah if you're gonna pay 500k for a car I would atleast want a better looking interior... I could buy a huracan for less and it looks and sounds nicer than this turd

"It really feels like a race car" i wonder why....
FlpDaMattress it’s a road car... that’s why. He’s saying it feels like a track/race car. This can be driven on the road
Yes it is road legal, original gt40 was a full blown race car and this one is a tribute to it, so again it's no wonder if it feels like a race car.
jack moore its like having a dog and calling it a cat and someone being like wow but it looks like and feels like a dog.... its a fucking race car bro.
Javier Pereida “race” cars aren’t street legal that’s the difference.
jack moore Ever heard of the Formula Ford? Its an entry-level class of single seater for open-wheel formula racing. In other words a "race" car. Its also street legal.

I was at the Rolex 24 a couple years ago. The Ford GT sounded a million times better than the Italian cars.. I know what you mean about the sound. Amazing.
Why are people crying over how the car looks. It's a exotic meant to go fast. If you want luxury go get a Mercedes fruit cakes
MrMiamiswaggz305 this thing isn’t fast
3.2 sec @ 60 mph, 11.1 sec @ 130 mph. It's pretty fast. Especially for a street legal car you can buy yourself. The majority of cars faster than this are designed and engineered directly for racing (as in, designed for a driver and their team to race in), or performance electric.
mclaren 720s is pretty luxurious and it does 0-60 in 2.8 seconds...
Note that it is a V6.
Robert Dunn the new Ford GT does 0-60 in 2.8 seconds not 3.2 ;)

Matt Delmonico the way I see it is when your going around the track its all about functionality. I see their point for it, but it isn't very visually appealing on the inside in my opinion as well. I won't be buying a 500k car either though lol
