| It wasn't even a contest. The Ford GT so completely dusted off its two highly recognized competitors that if we had wanted to make this a real challenge, we would have had to go way up the "supercar" price ladder. The $401,000 Saleen S7 is about as quick as the Ford GT, and we know of only one car that would surely outrun the Ford—the $659,000 Ferrari Enzo. |

| Rocketing the GT to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds and to 150 in 16.9 (that's an incredible seven seconds quicker than the Porsche and the Ferrari) |

| In this comparo, it had the crispest throttle response. In the rolling-start test to 60 mph, where the gas pedal is floored at 5 mph, the GT hooked up and simply bolted, reaching 60 in 3.7 seconds, a full second quicker than the GT3 and 0.7 second faster than the Ferrari. |

| What really made for the GT's stunning two-second-per-lap advantage—it ran a lap in 1:32.13 |

| And even though the Ford did not have fancy ceramic brake rotors, its brakes never faded, and it stopped from 70 mph in the shortest distance (153 feet versus 167 for the GT3 and Stradale). |

| Maybe we're being too picky here, because for the money, you get not only one of the coolest shapes on the road but also one of the best-performing new cars you can buy. Period. It's gratifying to know at last that the heavily hyped Ford GT does indeed deliver the goods. |

NJA mk 6 gt är väl den designen som ford köpte tillsammans med Broadleys tid och kunskaper. Att sedan Eric byggde t70 beror mera på att ford inte lät honom bygga den istället för gt 40 som blev en massa kompromisser. |

cat7even har helt rätt! Jag skummade igenom boken "Lola T70 V8 Coupés", och ovanstående rad sammanfattade det hela väldigt bra. Sedan blev nog T70 en evolution av GT40, precis som mycket annat på den tiden (och även nu?) Fast var GT40'n en massa kompromisser? Den vann ju LeMans iallafall.....
