At 0-60 in 3.3 seconds it fullfills the legacy!

yesterday I fell in love with a car! This is the new Ford GT! It has 550 horsepower and does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds! Three seconds! Tha must be what a viper launch feels like! All I need would be to have Sarah Rush yell LAUNCH!
:D

One added thing I love about this car is that it continues a great legend. Back in the 1960s when I was very very tiny, this car's predecessor won hands down on the Le Mans racing circuit. It was a champion. The Ford GT won 1st, 2nd AND 3rd place for three years in a row!

This new car revives that tradition faithfully. Its a gorgeous continuation of the legend.

Ford really did it right with this one!

You know... I think Tom Selleck would look great in a red GT in the new Magnum!


Too bad it is estimated to cost $150,000


But still....

Tom -

I like your choice in cars...... At least it's a Ford! Here's my choice for 2005 - the newly redesigned Mustang! It may not go from 0 to 60 in 4 seconds, but it doesn't cost 150 large either!

Um....

That's not the pic I had in mind.....

How did that happen? There's no way that *I* would post a pic of Barney, the bloody buggery dinasaur!

I went back and fixed it though......

BWAHAHAHA! That is funny when yu thing about it. :D

I always did love mustangs! I am a camaro man myself. Love them. And sad they stopped making them. But Mustangs really look good. Especially the Shelby variants!

I also loved those Lindsay Wagner Mustang commercials too! :D

I'm glad to see that Ford is bringing back the model lines that they made well. The GT is nice, but way too expensive. Here's what I would buy if I had $40,000:

T-Bird

It would never make it up my driveway, but boy is it pretty.

Tom's is a throwback to a classic!

I sooooooooo agree! I love the CLASSIC cars. :D

thomas7g June 30th, 2004 07:42 PM

LOL!

Yes old stuff is good. Better than cheap new stuff which cost too much. :D

bsg1fan1975 July 1st, 2004 03:55 AM

uh huh, plus I remember them as my late dad was a mechanic and owned his own gas station and did the repairs on site. I went to work with my parents every day until he died!
