      Digital Car Addict can you customize the cars that are new to the game but are really overpriced so no one will ever buy them to try the customization out. I mean the Renault Megane or the Ford Focus RS Rallye Edition? That would be great!

      the 2017 Ford GT is a nice car but I'm not sure I like the shape of it ever since I've had the crew 2 I've grinded the game day and night got loads of $$$ saved up I contemplated on buying the Ford GT but keep telling myself no but I've seen one that was red with the white stripes looks amazing but still unsure

    The reason they put the twin turbo v6 ecoboost was to advertise the “ecoboost” thus making customers think any car that has ecoboost unique and quick thus boosting sales... no pun intended lol

      No it really wasn’t about any of that… the whole reason they made this car was to race it it GT. What they were looking for is power to weight and that’s why it’s a v6 eco boost. The last thing they thought of was production.

  • @marciliojunior4919
    @marciliojunior4919 6 лет назад +62

    The new ford gt has the v6 ecoboost for two reasons, one is becuse they want to cut some payouts on developing other engine, second is because they were trying to promote the new ecoboost family of envirement friendly engines so they used the new gt as some kind of propaganda

    • @rau4329
      @rau4329 4 года назад

      They wanted to cut payouts? They put the v6 because they made the body of the car before even thinking of a engine. They built this car for only 1 reason. This wasn’t built to be track record breaker. This was built to attack Le Mans. Ford performance said they didn’t think of a engine till after they got everything else perfect for Le Mans. This thing was built on 1 track. That’s why it looks like it does.

  • @pixelghostclyde8717
    @pixelghostclyde8717 6 лет назад +12

    It's not about fuel economy (who cares about fuel economy when you get a car like that?) or power; it's all about compactness and how it helps them develop a better chassis, and that Le Mans BOP. The 2005 Ford GT was made for "heritage" and nostalgia, the 2017 car is a machine that wins endurance races.
    Of course they could have developed a V8 Ecoboost with a smaller per-cylinder displacement, but that would've been outrageously expensive, and the reliability of the engine over race distances could have possibly suffered too.

    I've only seen one at the Detroit international auto show. I've seen the 2005 GT in the wild in downtown Detroit one day. I was on my bike, to bad he was going the other way, could have been fun :)
    BTW, the reason for the V-6 is because the car was specifically made to win at Le Mans on the anniversary of the beat-down they gave Ferrari, and it did it(1,3,4). They needed that engine to be in the class they wanted to, a nice side bonus was it was lighter and more aerodynamic. The vettes did nothing that year.

    The engine sound is the only bad thing about the car. BTW, The ZR1 is faster most likely because the Ford GT has 647 hp and weights 3354 pounds but the ZR1 has 750 hp and weighs 3560 pounds. That's only 206 more pounds. Edit: Hp was 647, not 617 and added some info about weight.

    • @DigitalCarAddict
      @DigitalCarAddict  6 лет назад

      Digital Car Addict the big ass v8 y’all want in the ford by won’t fit. And if they put in the McLaren y’all would’ve still been complaining that it’s not an American car and that they where lazy on the car

    "Better fuel economy" I don't know why Ford thinks people car about that in these kinds of cars. If people actually cared about fuel economy they wouldn't even be shopping for this type of car.

      I mean that wasn’t the reason at all why they introduced this engine into this car

      that was the racecar version with a modifed version of the engine, aero, brakes, suspension, etc. You think 650hp can compete up with the other track monsters?

    If i had a shitload of money, i would buy this and rip out the engine and put an old GT engine in it... and maybe add a bigger supercharger to get it to 650hp
