2005 Ford GT Photos & News

[MTU 50]

Yeah, I've seen 2 Ferarri's this summer. One was a Magnum PI style and I'm not sure what the other one was, but it was newer. The other day I saw a guy in a Rolls. It was a two tone convertible with white on top and purple on the bottom.

I have only saw a couple of Vipers this summer, two new Cadillac XLR's, a couple of the new F-150's already. Today in fact, I saw the new Mercedes SL. I think it has something like 550hp and 550 lb-ft of Torque. Nice looking car.

I don't live in a high class neighborhood or anything, but driving around town you see a lot of nice cars. Plus there is a TON of old Muscle roaming around. I saw a real nice 69' Stang yesterday. All white, with a single blue stripe down the middle and wide tires in back. It was sweet. And thankfully, we don't have too much rice. I don't think I could take seeing that crap everyday.

When I was at the Ford Romeo proving ground in May, they had one of their prototype GT's out there testing. It was only a 400 hp version and not the production 500 hp. They were out on the flat test surface doing braking runs. That thing stopped pretty quick from my vantage point.
