Superformance Ford GT40 MKII - One Take
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 апр 2016
- Want to feel like you're Dan Gurney sticking it to Ferrari in 1967 at LeMans? Look no further than the Superformance GT40 MKII. Built nearly identically to the original GT40 cars with 95% interchangeable parts, this GT40 MKII features a 550 HP Roush 427 Small Block V8, 5-speed transaxle, and one of the best views out a windshield available anywhere at any price. This GT40 is also loaded with options such as Air Conditioning and Wilwood Brakes, and is available as a turn-key car for around $165,000. Considering the originals sell for deep into the 7-figures, we think it's a bargain.

You can spend millions on an original just to look at it, or spend less than a couple hundred grand and actually be able to enjoy it. It's an amazing machine.
Or if you can afford the original, you buy both, admire the real one and kick the shit of the replica
+Pierre Belliveau or you could buy this and a bugatti veryon as a daily...lol
DantEightSix or you can buy an original and do what it was meant to do, drive it. Race cars are not meant to be owned by posers.
@@Miatacrosser And ruin its value like a fucking idiot
@@God-mb8wi not driving a race car like it is meant to be driven is like refusing to fuck your virgin girlfriend when she's begging for it--youre just ensuring the real experience goes to someone else.
This has to be one of the most timeless designs on a vehicle.
Agreed
+Garrett Johnsen (Temecula iPhone Repair) Yup. I'd argue it still looks better than any supercar on sale today.
+Garrett Johnsen (Temecula iPhone Repair) Agreed!!
Agreed ! Looked shit when it was made, and it looks shit now :D
all that money and no FE?
"Clutch is heavy, gas is heavy,...'ARMS SPAGHETTI'." Well, at least that what instantly popped in my head.
I'm thinking,"I want to drive this thing right now".
Ford's scaredy
He's nervous but ready to drop bombs
mom's spaghetti
PapayaMan Thank you
I bet this car made loads of people's day, just seeing one on the road
It'd sure make mine. although the rest of my drive would feel pretty damn mediocre. That's just one of those cars you can only dream of...
Passed me in Miami the other day and he was going over 100. This sounded unreal and the smell of the exhaust
I don't want it...I don't want it...I don't want it...I NEED IT!!!

@@johnstone6945 MKi!
So appropriate to watched this now after seeing Ford vs Ferrari.
etravix exactly
Amazing movie
This car is a legend
Same here.
Tho i thought the original was a right hand drive
Bloody hell the noise.. why would you want the new ford GT? This is SOOOOOOO much better.
+ToyotaGT1Racer The new one looks awesome, but the fact that its not a V8 and has the word "eco" in it disgusts me.
+DesertStateInEu Yeah, Ford let down the fans with that one.
And I was told by a battery car fan boy that exhaust notes don't exude the spirit of a performance car, I can never imagine myself driving a car and hear nothing but wind and road noise...
Spushed
Theyve got that covered. You can hear engine sound from the speakers. Amazing right? lol
The new ford gt has the engine it has because that's where endurance cars are going. While a v8 would be amazing (twin turbo voodoo....) it would be. mind of disingenuous. I like that the gt40 looks forward, not back.
matt - the voice balance to engine ratio is spot on. excellent video!
true
+steve goodwin You don't notice it, but it is so true. You hear everything even on low volume.
I think the audio as a whole is amazing in this video. I don't think I've heard a RUclips video with speech so clear.
+steve goodwin
Whatever they did to fix the audio issues has worked out wonderfully
+darek4488 Leno needs to take a few cues. I swear the volume of the voices on his videos are all over the map.
2200lb wtf with 550hp?! That's insane haha I'd die driving that.
Alot of people have.
@jeff deathrage no, they are definetly recreations.
And remember the Shelby Cobra 427. Same engine, even smaller, open-top car.
@@SigTheSauceMan Death machine!
xCkillaxC my dads Toyota Yaris is 2300 pounds... but only 106 bhp ;-;
I laughed so hard when the bug hit the camera and you moved your PiP display slowly up to cover it. lol
Saber008 haha
only $165k? I hate to say it.. but that's affordable...sorta kinda if i tilt my head, close my eyes and imagine...
Lmao
+lvcsslacker lolz that's what I thought. there are way more expensive cars than this. Sounds sick!
+lvcsslacker it's not that bad if you think about it, it's pretty much a restomod without the headache part haha
Its seems like a good deal when you see the level of detail.
+lvcsslacker cheaper then orginall :D
170K? thats a steal considering how much a real one costs and how(allegedly) accurate they are.
85 % of rolling chassis is interchangeable with the original only diff in parts is for safety upgrades
@anima9271979 and left hand drive lol
Also 95% interchangeable
@Lord Goarmagon $46k if you want to build it yourself, excluding the engine and transmission I think.
I know the owner of the company who builds these in South Africa (Hi-Tech Automotive). I’ve been to the factory many times and I can tell you the GT’s and cobra’s are as close to the real thing you will ever get. Carroll Shelby himself licensed them and Superformance (they work in partnership with Riverside Racers in Canada) to build continuations. Doesn’t get closer to the originals.
10/10 would daily
Brent Moore same
Might have a broken backbone but fuck it
Your head will hurt after half an hour no kidding. Great sound but people underestimate how loud it is
This is why I'm late for work
Today I'm truly jealous. I want that car in my garage so badly.
J.C. Cutler me too
.... or this by your wall

Dat bug cover up was on point 😂
Wasn't aware they reproduced these. Always was a fan of the GT and GT40. Too bad more GT90's weren't produced, that would be a treat to get behind the wheel of one of those!
**GT90s**? lol
@@BobbyTuckerThe DOHC, quad turbo, V12 concept they did in the 90s... There is only one.
If I had the bucks I'd go right hand drive right hand shift just for nostalgia. That's awesome.
"This thing must look so boss on the road." Hell yeah
Please Matt, find any excuse to do another one take with one of these! Maybe a MKI or something, I don't get tired of these GT40s.
Matt 'Turning Radius' Farah ;)
For all the ladies out there: Matt's biggest turn-on is turning radius
I was getting ready for school.... now I guess I'm watch TST lol
Lol I was just about to head to class myself 😄
Make that 3 people
+Aidan red All tree of ya'll better put some respeck on school and watch this later
I have a calculus final... And here I am.
+Daniel Shulman is you finiss or is you done
I was at the Nürburgring in '11 and there was a camp quite close to ours which had 2 GT40's. We talked to the kind owners who said that they were original (i atleast remeber one of them beeing) and they were a mk1 and a mk3. Every morning at around 10-11 am, they would take their GT40's and drive to the ring, and you could just hear the V8's roar and rumble through the woods next to the road. It was quite the experience!
What are you going to do if you ever hit 2 bugs?
Literally just saw one of these at Bentley Gold Coast in Chicago with the Gulf Racing livery, super cool car
I'm only 20 years old, from Hungary, but I always thought of the GT40 MKII as an ultimate dream car, especially because of the vintage style, and feel. I don't think, that the newer GT could ever reach this level. Thank you Matt, now I know, that there are "affordable" ones out there too!
I really enjoy your One Take series, always dreamed about living in California and having a nice car, to take to the canyons, and you keep that in my mind with these videos, so Thank You again, and keep up the good work!
Rob
Róbert Neumann the company ships cars to Europe lol
Holy shit, this is my dream car since I was a kid. I really enjoyed watching you drive it.
Been some real special cars lately on here Matt, Really enjoying them! Keep it up!
I was stoked to see this car on your channel Matt original or not its still freaking awesome! Those bug splats make me laugh too haha.
I honestly had goosebumps watching this video and hearing that engine bark when you downshifted was epic! I was thinking the whole time this is a very very good replica of what is essentially Automotive Royalty ... Thank you Matt I truly enjoyed this video and i could feel the same sense of "Specialness" in your voice as you described it ... Brilliant!
One of my favorite one takes, watched multiple times. You can really tell Matt had a genuinely good time driving this classic.
You're doing an awesome job Matt, keep up the good work m8:)
Amazing a car with that kind of power to have AC and heated seat as a freebie not a bad buy 4 under 200k
This was incredible to watch. I love the feel of how these cars look from the seat when you drive.
The audio is fantastic. Turn up the volume because the real sound is when it is loud.
Us older guys definitely appreciate it ! I was there in '66 when Chris Amon and Bruce McLaren led the 1 2 3 finish. I had tears of joy.
God, I love 180 degree headers!
Something i've never seen driven in NYC. I rather see this than all these Dodge Vipers in Long Island, NY.
The Classic Car Club of Manhattan has one. They take it out all the time
+David Ha Or Corvettes in Staten Island.
After having a terrible weekend, seeing you have that much fun in a wicked machine totally made my day. So, jealous right now! Rock on, Matt!!
Matt, you have some of the most entertaining yet honest videos out there. You seem very down to earth, knowledgeable and a true enthousiast. Great content. Love this car to death
If I saw that car driving down the road I'd likely wreck looking at it.
zeake13 True story: My Dad was a car nut and in our rural small town back in the 1970s the driver of an oncoming car spotted my Dad's Citroen DS21 coming toward him and wrecked!
This sounds like an actual bargain
Great one take Matt. Fell in love with this car in Gran Turismo 2 as a kid, then after learning the history and Ford's battle against Ferrari at LeMans I was ecstatic to hear they were building the GT, and again now with the new one. Thanks for showing this to us and I'm glad you enjoyed your drive! Keep up the great work!
Matt, hats off, this is the best one take on the Smoking Tire and believe me, I saw them all more than once. Such a beautiful car, traffic is on the heavy side but the road and scenery around are really good,, your knowledge and commentary at it's best as usual. The part from 7:25 is especially epic, I was really moved by watching this recreation of history on full throotle.
Thank you for all your free one takes, this is by far the best car show on the internet :)
Matt thank you so much for this video! The superformance gt40 is my dream car, because Ill never be able to afford a real GT40. ...Then again I probably cant afford this ever either.
🤣🤣 I feel you bro!!
Buy the ford gt 2005 :D
I will admit, the turning radius on that thing is a LOT tighter than I thought it would be. I was sure that flip-around would end up turning into a 12-point turn. I was also wondering just how the hell he fit in that thing, until I found out he basically yanked the seat out.
I do'nt think I've ever been more envious of you, Matt. I've always, always wanted to drive one of these--real or fake, I wouldn't be picky. Unfortunately for me it's not going to happen unless I win the Powerball.
The reflection of the headers in the door "roof" panels is just the coolest freaking thing ever...ok its one of many of the coolest things ever about this car.
You seemed really, really chill throughout this drive. Like you were between "scared shitless" and "this is the best day of my life".
Amazing video through and through and an amazing replica.
1:43 best drive-by sound. 👌🏼
OH MY GOD... OH MY GOD! I want this so bad.
This is a true dream & proper platform that would never grow old . Their is no car that could keep up nor catch me in this ! To relive 1966 to 1969 has to be the Ultimate on this planet ! Thanks for sharing !
The best one take so far, that car is amazing! Nice one Matt, thanks.
1:43
"I can't say how fast I was going... But it was a real number"
I want left hand drive and right side shift.
that's just regular center shift.
They have it in RHD and right side shift
Best one is left hand drive with sill shift on the right of the car XD
Coming from a younger guy... I saw this video while at work, and was giddy as all hell to get home and watch it! One of the top one takes!
That has to be one of the more beautiful sounds I've heard in my life.
The terrible things I would do for one of these.
Fr fr, i aint gay but give me 30 min. n i can make it worth your while!😂😂😂
+ronnie kirtdoll For a car like that... I'd be anything you want. lol
Punk Nation 💯👌
SPC Imaging you don't have to do a lot of terrible things for this instead ruclips.net/video/Wm0QqMTeIMk/видео.html
Like, work hard and save money? 😱
You should make a montage of every bug that has hit the gopro, and then the casual cover-up
My favourite video of the gt40. Gives a good idea of what it might be like drive one of these.Very well put to gather, thank you
In some little way I live vicariously through Matt, and today was a good day.
Happy Monday.
It seems like a lot of car for under 200K
+Michael Montefusco It definitely is. Honestly, if you want a car to absolutely demolish any Cars&Coffee full of Ferraris and Lamborghinis, roll up in one of these.
+Michael Montefusco If I had $200K and could only buy one car with it, it'd be this. Hands down.
Definitely would rather own this than a Ferrari or Lambo. It looks, sounds, and drives amazing.
+VirusTornado A lot more unique than any ferrari or lambo too.
+Aces High That's what I am thinking. I live in Jupiter FL and I see 458's and Bentley's like I see Accords. NO ONE is gonna have anything as cool and unique as this. I do see a lot of bad ass classic cars around here but a GT40?!?!? Naw...
I am a young fella. I had a ride today in a Replica in New Zealand. It is simply a raw proper car. I would definately love a rental programme for the Ford GT40 replicas. I will never forget today
Matt, I really enjoyed your comments about Dan Gurney and those drivers who made these cars famous. I had lunch and got to drive a few years ago with Bob Bondurant and John Morton at Willow Springs. Leaning on the pit wall and talking about the "Old Days" with these two guys, who were on Shelby's team in Europe in those years, was indescribable for a life-long car guy! One of the things that I thought was interesting was when Bob said that they never knew from one day to the next which car in the garage, they were going to drive. Shelby would make up his mind at the last moment and tell everyone what the day's plan was.
I could go on for pages but you'd run out of patience and pages! It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience which I'll treasure for ever. -Gary
Lol bug hit the go pro. Just cover it with Matt.
This is so cool! i'm surprised you fit in it!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing this beautiful sports car with all of us!
Matt. ... that sound gave me an Eargasm!
thanks for the awesome video ... keep them coming
That was one cool car. Best one take!
I almost pissed myself, it's so beautiful
I ride along in that exact car to cars and coffee sometimes. Such an amazing experience! Can't imagine how awesome it is to drive.
You can tell when you laugh how fun it is to drive! You understand it and we live vicarious through you! Thank you...
I'm one of the younger audience members, and i adore these cars.
Matt how tall are you?
+Joe Cribben 6'3"
+TheSmokingTire Same as me! At least I could fit in this car i'll never own.
+Joe Cribben ok so if you can fit into the Exige, then I wont have problems haha
+TheSmokingTire that's a big Jew😁😳
+Joe Cribben i would fit too! hahahaha awesome! i'm 6' 1
And I have my new dream sports car. Wow, thanks so much for sharing the driving experience.
Great review Matt. Enjoyed seeing the smile on your face. You get to drive some amazing cars, and this seems to stand out as one of the best experiences. One of my good friends is building an RCR GT40 over the next year and I can't wait to go for a ride. Its possible I may even get some seat time.
2200 lbs ?!! Crazy !!
for those who dont know freedom numbers 2200 lb = 997kg :D
For those who aint anal retentives "A TON"
For those born in the 1800s
2200 lb = 2.2 kips
Thanks for sharing this with us. Those are dream to look at but i cant imagine trying to race one for any amount of time.
Amazing video to start the work week while drinking my coffee. Thanks Matt
Is that 2 filler caps for a single gas tank in the front?
+Casey Weaver yes, so that in LeMans you could have 2 guys filling it at once to make your pit stops shorter.
Liked before it even started playing.
What a beautiful piece of art , superformance stole my heart
Nice review. I'd rather drop 160k on one of these than 450k on the new ones.
Imagine seeing this turn up at your local track day and not being any the wiser to whether it's real or fake, $170k as well is a bargain for a car that is 99% the original GT.
+S Miller GT40* Even more raw. It's basically a race car.
GATTDAMN. The visceral impact of this video came across so perfectly. So glad you got have a solid session in that cockpit, Farah.
Eric Broadley and Roy Lunn made a great team - The borough of Bromley should be proud :-)
It's legal! It's legal!
How many tickets have you gotten shooting one takes? If i drove like that as much as you do around the backroads of Indiana where I live I would be in jail....
Subscribed. I absolutely love the quality and camerawork of these videos.
Always loved GT40s. I'm so glad there's a market for these continuations.
boy do us british know how to build a car :D
+Nick Nack They sure do! As long as the electronics are done somewhere else. Anywhere else.
harsh, but true. same with the french too.
+Nick Nack British cars are beautiful, french cars on the other hand are very ugly for the most part
+TheSmokingTire hahaha haha
+TheSmokingTire Yeah how true, Lucas electrics and lights were know as the 'Prince of darkness'. I'm so jealous of you driving my favourite GT40 the mk2, I've been waiting for a replica of the mk2 for years and now I think I'll be contacting them to build me one. I'll have to have the right hand drive with right hand gearshift and a 'Gurney' bubble.
Anyone else watching because of the Shelby v Ferrari movie?
I'm going to bed and dream about how good this car sounds. So damn sweet!
that little face cam placement change when the bug hit was hilarious hahaha.
nice bug fix :-P
Shit like this makes me proud to be an American
+JDMxlove Don't get me wrong, I'm proud as hell too but... just wanted to make sure you know the GT40 was made by the British... lol
+JDMxlove Be proud of something else, these are made in South Africa.
+Arthur Sperotto yeah I know but that ford badge
JDMxlove Slapping a Ford badge on an MG doesn't make it American lol. The only GT40 that was actually American was the Mk. IV. All other ones, including the Mk. II in the video were designed, engineered and made in the UK. Of course, that doesn't make it a bad car in any way. We can still be proud of Carroll Shelby being an American :-)
Arthur Sperotto wrong, designed by Ford 100%.
The second review of yours that make me smile all the way with the Hennessey Venom GT.
What a machine !
The Ford GT40 MKII by Superformance is the one car that I can't wait to own.
I could never find a good review of it on RUclips.
Thank you Matt for doing a proper review.
I have small testicles, will i be able to drive this vehicle?
