The GT was never a Ford version of the Vette. GT-40's in the beginning were a prototype, like today's P1 at LeMans, purpose built to take down Ferrari's prototype's, something Corvette (a street car) turned racer can never lay claim to. Only in the last decade has GM built a Vette in the Ford GT's class and performance level.
And in the UK, it's the emergency phone number...........but the I guess 911 hasn't hurt Porsche!
But my cousin's brother, who was married to a lady whose uncle lived next door to a guy whose son read an article on-line about the Ford GT said the car handled poorly and was built like a kit car.
You have a case of HUA.
:doh: Please tell me you're trolling.
This.
No, I'm not.
And you don't care to expound on such an inflammatory statement?
Inflammatory? If I told you the sun was hot would that be Inflammatory? How about if I told you water is wet? Is that Inflammatory?
The same could be said of most sports cars. I don't think you need to be a pro-driver to drive something like a GT500 or ZL1, but you have to be careful as with any high horsepower vehicle.
True, Ford didn't have a dedicated plant to manufacture super cars. It was the first one since the 60's. But a kit-car implies that there was little engineering involved. Kit cars usually take a bunch of common parts like motor, chassis, and suspension, and just slap a fiber glass body on it. Surely you don't think the GT is anywhere near that level.
You can't call one of the greatest Fords ever made a "glorified kit car" with "dangerous" handling and expect to get away with it. :ford:
:lol:
I know you are but what am I? haha get em Johnny
