Don’t take this as an insult, just some constructive criticism. Cut the music. We want to hear the car, the owner/build, and Shawn. Use it for transitions, sure, but put an exponential fade on that puppy and bring it down to zero at the first increase of RPM.
I'll go one further, turn it DOWN! I'm not a fan of music in videos, especially when it massively detracts from the focus subject, but I can't stand it when the audio isn't leveled and the music blows your ears out. If you're going to use music, level the audio!
That's because it was designed by the brits The ford gt is based on the Lola mk6, Ford bought the design from the British car manufacturer called Lola cars.
A win win in the win department. I own a true Shebly car 1966 Gt350 Red with white racing stripes 4 speed car with only original 62,000 miles . Carrol Shebly the man
The GT40 is an historic design and just beautiful car. This one look gorgeous and sounds and looks like a superb street car, sight angles notwithstanding. Thanks for sharing this one. Be safe and stay well.
I’ll always love superformance cars. They are seriously cars of insane history and pedigree, might not be the few originals around, but built the way you want, fully custom to you wants and needs 👊🏻🤘🏼 Killer video Shawn, you are rolling along very nicely on the videos, keep up the hard work 🙏
Man hats off to the fabricator that crafted that exhaust. That takes a lot of effort and skill to craft metal pipes into that many curves, weld them, and have it all looking smooth and natural.
Among all the other incredible things about this car, what's really attractive is it's configured for real-world daily driving! Yeah, I'd take this anywhere, any time. Shawn, you'd be right behind me in line with that checkbook! Growing up in Detroit, I was 9 years old in 66. For me, there was nothing more impactful than the GT40. One of my friend's dad, a Ford engineer, actually built one from scratch in his garage and we literally could hear it fire up from ten blocks away. Just epic. Everything, just epic. Thanks for this!
I can't wait for you get one of these cars like the ones you review Shawn. You deserve it bro. Top notch content. I'm 20 and I wish more kids my age would appreciate the beauty of these old cars. Truly unlike anything you see today. I really want a 69 Camaro. That's gonna be my goal to get one some day. I'd do either a 572 big block with a Tremec T56 or a Built LT4 with a 10 Speed Automatic. I'd definitely take her to gabes custom interiors too. Not too many people my age are into old cars mostly JDM and other modern stuff. I love new cars but these old schools are so unique and beautiful. Truly timeless works of art.
You've got good taste in cars ' work on getting your Camaro ' when others your age see what you're driving ' they might be influenced into getting something old and cool themselves.
Most of them have become high end street rods or race cars. i know a guy with a street-legal all original perfect condition '69 and he valued it at 50 grand 10 years ago. He's actually got about 5 others in various conditions and degrees of being complete cars. Also a 67 and a few 68's. My father has a 71 Nova that he's owned since he was 15. It's street legal, but it was a drag car with nitrous/big block. Now it's got a small block and a supercharger.
@@drownthepoor I've wondered about the situation with the reproduction body shells that you can get now ' for example you can get a repro tri five chevy body 'or a Mustang ' Camaro 'Chevelle ' Bronco ' Challenger ect ' ( as well as every other part you need to make it fully restored) but say you had a wrecked or rusted out original and as far as the body is concerned your'e taking the original ID numbers and putting them on something new 'is that legal? Mark Worman of Graveyard Carz said it's an offence to take tag's off one car and put them on another . I dont know what the rules are in America ' and god knows what they might be in New Zealand.
Looks like my Lakeforest neighborhood! My father-in-law has the GT-40 as well with the Gulf 6 graphics that he purchased from Superformance. He goes to so many shows and people just love his car!
Beautiful car! Ethan from Superformance is a true gentleman. He recently sold me my Cobra and I’ve never come across a more professional, and genuine saleperson in my life. Would definitely buy another car from him and Superformance!
I'm a big fan of these cars as well and I'm lucky enough to visit their showroom and oh my gosh it was a lot to take in. Thanks for bringing us these great videos! May I suggest a visit to Pete Brock and his studio for some insight and to look at his cars?
Great video! I own a Superformance MKIII with a Roush 427R and it's a blast to drive. I have also been in Lance's GT40 and I would love to put one in my garage next to the MKIII. Maybe someday...
The Ford GT is remarkable and timeless. I miss seeing them competing in IMSA. I'm hoping some owners of the final 67 copies of the GT IV (40) use their 800 horsepower as intended.
I’m with you Shawn this one is my favorites so far, love it! If I had the money would def build one similar to this. P.s. there is more grace for falling in love with someone else’s car if it’s for sale, and I def can’t fault you on this one. Keep ‘em coming man, love love love the videos.
Great video!! My idea is to build one of these with a 2020 GT500 engine and DCT transmission need to figure out if the engine and transmission will fit
Awesome car , but I probably get a headache from the noise so would have to make it more quite and lose a bit of power but it would still be great to drive it around 👍🏽🤙🏼
The Ford GT40 is truly the most Gorgeous American car ever made!❤🇺🇸 No Chevy, Dodge, or Saleen even comes close!🏁 🇺🇸 awesome video autotopiala! This car will stay gorgeous and timeless for 50, 60, or even 100 years from now....
That silver GT40 is gorgeous! There's one thing that irks me about it, though... those dinky little brake rotors look so out of place behind those wheels. Larger diameter rotors are DEFINITELY a must.
I emailed a major car race network ( I don't consider nascar real car race) that after the announcers introduce the track and drivers, they are not necessarily needed to talk or give the play-by-play . It's not a horse race.

I agree cut the music
It's called a montage,it builds momentum in some cases,and in others it's a dud.
It's an American thing they do it on everything.
Wow, looks so much better than modern cars. Most beautiful car ever made in my humble opinion.
That GT40 is a thing of beauty. You'd never believe the design is almost 60 years in the making.
Sure is good lookin'
Absolutely timeless design.
That's because it was designed by the brits The ford gt is based on the Lola mk6, Ford bought the design from the British car manufacturer called Lola cars.
exactly! even if it was designed 30 to 40 years later it would have still been a modern design!
A win win in the win department. I own a true Shebly car 1966 Gt350 Red with white racing stripes 4 speed car with only original 62,000 miles . Carrol Shebly the man
Kinda car so ahead in time ... no words .. simply an american masterpiece

I’m with you all the way here. Timeless design. It’ll always look good
LOVE THE SOLID COLOR ! THESE CARS WERE SO AHEAD OF THEIR TIME ! STILL LOOKS CRAZY EVEN ALL THIS TIME AFTER PRODUCTION.
Stop jivin' and start drivin.'
That should be his new line!
@@AutotopiaLA For sure.
That 4 valve in the 08 GT500 was fun as well. they sound the same. Mine was long tubes, H pipe, no cats, and Flowmaster outlaws. VMP gen 2. 2.3TVS.
I’ll always love superformance cars. They are seriously cars of insane history and pedigree, might not be the few originals around, but built the way you want, fully custom to you wants and needs 👊🏻🤘🏼
Killer video Shawn, you are rolling along very nicely on the videos, keep up the hard work 🙏
I am in love with that car too. It's incredible.
My opinion but Ford is King of true Racing heritage, Iove that Car...Great video. .
That car is a TRUE work of art!
Man hats off to the fabricator that crafted that exhaust. That takes a lot of effort and skill to craft metal pipes into that many curves, weld them, and have it all looking smooth and natural.
Done by David Borla himself.
Thanks Shawn for another amazing video!!! You can never have too much GT40 🇺🇸 🇫🇷

Love everything about it , nice build !
If I had the $ - it would be mine tomorrow. Love it
Same here. I’d have driven it home if I had the $$

I’m working on it…really working on it! I’d love having more people your age understand the beauty of the classics built right
Your thumbnail looks funny ass hell!
Beautiful car, not overdone, sweet!
Subtle beauty
Love Autotopia's coverage...
the GT40's design could have literally been built 30 to 40 years later and it would still have looked modern.
Looks like my Lakeforest neighborhood! My father-in-law has the GT-40 as well with the Gulf 6 graphics that he purchased from Superformance. He goes to so many shows and people just love his car!
Bro, the cars you feature never fail to amaze me. 👍 Love from the UK ♥
Awesome! Glad you like what we shoot here my friend
Beautiful car! Ethan from Superformance is a true gentleman. He recently sold me my Cobra and I’ve never come across a more professional, and genuine saleperson in my life. Would definitely buy another car from him and Superformance!
Work of art and sounds amazing!
Nice job guys!!! Can't wait to see who the next lucky owner will be!
Thanks. Someone’s gonna get an amazing machine
Absolutely stunning
I'm a big fan of these cars as well and I'm lucky enough to visit their showroom and oh my gosh it was a lot to take in. Thanks for bringing us these great videos! May I suggest a visit to Pete Brock and his studio for some insight and to look at his cars?
Nice! As an old guy these were spaceships as far as I was concerned …😊
You're one lucky man Shawn, just to get to drive these beautiful cars. Love the work, keep it up brother. 😎👍
Thank you and trust me I feel really lucky!
Congrats on the 420k subs Shawn ! Let's smoke some tires and ring in the New Year. Wishing you and your crew the best 2023 !
Thank you!! Wishing you a great New Year as well my friend!!
The understated look of this GT40 is just so tasteful.
Exactly. Subtle. Simple. Flawless
I love everything about that car, the color, the wheels, everything!!!! Wow!!!! I want one!!!!😩
Simply stunning 😍 but I am still hung on the grand sport. Thanks again Shawn for a fantastic video TCB
Both great rides but this one…man!!
Autotopia featuring Superformance is always a treat
Always a treat for me too cause I get to drive em!
Now that is sweet! Definitely a dream car!!!!!
What a great sound...... Too good.... freakin cool buddy 😎🤠🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video! I own a Superformance MKIII with a Roush 427R and it's a blast to drive. I have also been in Lance's GT40 and I would love to put one in my garage next to the MKIII. Maybe someday...
Clean, Sleek and Wicked
Yes yes and yes!! Such a beauty
Those gt's are kickass! Great vid Sean 🤘🏼
Thank you! Such a cool car
The look and sound exciit me.
My dream car right here, along with the Cobra.
Yes and yes for me too!
Bro, this is hands down the baddest car you’ve had on the channel yet!
It’s such a perfect car! Everything is right
If I ever won the lottery, those guys would be on my short list to call the first week... LOL!
Same for me bro!!
What a machine looks like a 1000hp plus!!!! Just awesome looking and historic piece!!!
It’s a perfectly balanced and beautiful GT40
YOU GUYS ARE BEAUTIFUL
The Ford GT is remarkable and timeless. I miss seeing them competing in IMSA. I'm hoping some owners of the final 67 copies of the GT IV (40) use their 800 horsepower as intended.
A Superformance GT40 MK I is a dream car, hopefully one day I’ll be able to get one!
Same for me!
I’m with you Shawn this one is my favorites so far, love it! If I had the money would def build one similar to this.
P.s. there is more grace for falling in love with someone else’s car if it’s for sale, and I def can’t fault you on this one.
Keep ‘em coming man, love love love the videos.
Just such a beautiful car. Lots more coming from us I promise
Perfection right there, you can keep all your fussy lambos and ferraris , I'll take that hands down
Same for me
An epic build of a legendary car... This is like the Singer 911 of GT40s
No it's NOT!
Great video!! My idea is to build one of these with a 2020 GT500 engine and DCT transmission need to figure out if the engine and transmission will fit
50-60 mph in first gear, holy leatherass!
Tall gears for sure
Gotta love the Dan Gurney bump in the driver door!
Great vid!! 👍👍
Thanks! Loving the work of our new editor. Some slight tweaks needed but love what he’s doing
@@AutotopiaLA 👍
That Ricardo transaxle is huge.
That is the best GT40 on youtube
I agree!
Holy bleepin bleep! I want one! Just awesome!
Same here!! Badly
Except for the run of the mill silver color and awful mirrors everything else is spot on!! What a machine!!
What a awesome car shawn! Love this car and great video!
I do too! And thanks. Such a cool GT40
Its crazy because,when I image the perfect gt40 I would drive, it will definitely be that!
No center stripe looks so good
Another awesome one guys...super sick edit too!
Next test drive better bring $5K in your pocket Shawn...just in case!
Thank you and I’m getting close to ordering one. Would do it exactly like this one
Beautiful GT
Love the color with the accent stripes and rims
Subtle look
Not to busy
That sound👍
Found
On
Road
Dominating🏁
This thing is just perfection to me
@@AutotopiaLA
Has to be a
Thrill to drive
Great Show!
Iconic, pedigree, an exotic Italian car killer. Shaun has the best job.
I agree. Such a perfect car and yeah…my job doesn’t suck lol
That color combo is the shit! I can watch those tri-bars spin all day long. Such a badass car!
Nice gt 👍👍👍
Gt 40's were amazingly modern looking for 1964 ' somehow the design keeps on looking modern ' I cant think of another car like that.
Truly timeless design
Awesome car , but I probably get a headache from the noise so would have to make it more quite and lose a bit of power but it would still be great to drive it around 👍🏽🤙🏼
That's a sexy Ford
No doubt about it it. Absolutely love this one
The Ford GT40 is truly the most Gorgeous American car ever made!❤🇺🇸
No Chevy, Dodge, or Saleen even comes close!🏁 🇺🇸 awesome video autotopiala!
This car will stay gorgeous and timeless for 50, 60, or even 100 years from now....
A Liberty walk wide body kit would be awesome on a classic GT40 👏
Türkiye,den sevgiler 👍
Sometimes I want to kinda be able to hear people talking and kinda hear shitty music while looking at a car. Thumbs up.
🏎️💤💤💤😲👌🏻Amazing work done to this GT 40, would love to own it for real😋🫡👍🏻🇵🇹🙋🏻♂️.
Killer car!
Is envy one of the deadly sins? If so, I'm not safe!
The most beautiful cars ever made regardless of price or maker..
Agreed
Can you please feature some more awesome builds from these guys
We’ve shown about 10-12 Superformance cars on the channel. Dig in and you’ll find some amazing rides
I would so much love to build one of these to do 100,000 miles touring America!
Love Superformance vehicles, if only!
Someday/oneday
You have to do an episode where they talk about the Mark 2!
Needs a wolfbox dual-dash cam mirror so you can see out of it.
That silver GT40 is gorgeous! There's one thing that irks me about it, though... those dinky little brake rotors look so out of place behind those wheels. Larger diameter rotors are DEFINITELY a must.
Shawn, get it. Get that car home. What to wait for? Once in a lifetime, they say!
Everything still goes back into my business but in the next 2 years I’ll have one
I miss the videos with you and Doug lol?? So Shawn when are you getting your superformance cobra ??
I emailed a major car race network ( I don't consider nascar real car race) that after the announcers introduce the track and drivers, they are not necessarily needed to talk or give the play-by-play . It's not a horse race.
Doug Demuro would love this!!!!!
GT500 - good in a straight line - putting the Hammer Down - the rear end breaks free - lots of crashes !
Yep but this GT40 is a different animal
yeah.thats the ticket. i gotta have one
I have always loved that car ever since the 60's when the brought out. Hope you guys have learned to use your seatbelts...lol
Beautiful beast!
Truly is
Beautiful car well done that guy .this and the Lamborghini Muira has to be top too sexiest cars ever made in my opinion…keep safe all .😊
I’m with you on both cars 👊
If I had my choice of one super car this would be it! Good ole AMERICAN muscle! 😮😊
👍❤️
I was wondering who has the best American made GT40 kit? I'd like to build one.
FORD- My favorite four letter car.
youre making the best commercial for this business and for free so they have to give you a big discount on the car you wanna buy 🙂
I’m planning on a Cobra and we’ve talked…I think it’ll be a great deal
@@AutotopiaLA
when should we see a vid of it? this year next year?
That was uneventful. Nice car.
Gotta respect the clients request which was “mellow” driving
Silver........nice.
Have you seen Chris Ashtons Ruffian GT40? IT IS AMAZING!
Seen it? We shot a full video with Chris and his insane GT40! It’s on our channel if you do a little search
@@AutotopiaLA he and I talk quite a bit on ig. Super nice guy.
