You're off by about $600,000 there, killer. Also, it takes A LOT more to put out a 1500hp production car than simply "slap a V8 in it and be done"why couldnt they start on the next gen.FORD GT?There are car brand making a very small number of cars that cost over a million,and they are all spoken for.So you think if FORD did another GT,and said here is 1500hp with a v8,but its gonna cost you 1.5 million people wont buy it?the V8s that are missing are missing from the FORD cars.
charger sales aren't terrible for the segment, but sedan sales as a whole are declining. That's why Ford stopped making cars altogether, Cadillac axed all of their cars except for the big boy, and Chevy is probably next to the plate. Why does the raptor need a V8? The V6 already GREATLY outperforms the previous gen V8 truck. And Ford doesn't need a GT. It's not a large market, it's a market that they end up losing money on. As it has been said, it took us 11 years to get a sequel to the last GT, which itself came 40 years after its predecessor. Those cars only come for Ford celebrations... first gen was a 100th birthday present to Ford, second one was 50th anniversary of winning Le Mans. Our next chance will probably be either the 150th birthday or 75th anniversary of Le Mans. Hell, by then, it'll probably be a full EV
My bad,i didnt know the rattlelac v series was dead.As far as the fat cat goes i thought it was selling ok,maybe not.I like the Raptor,thats the baddest truck out,it needs a V8 in it along with the v6.I think the GT500 will be king of its class when it comes out.Why a next gen FORD GT you ask?because what is going on with the current FORD GT shows if you build them ,people will buy them.They are gonna do an extra 300 or so more now.That says alot.
