America’s supercar returns! Performance-minded enthusiasts everywhere have a new leader, and the streets have a new master. Much like the Ford Gt that dominated endurance racing in the late 60’s, the new 2005 Ford GT debuts to a groundswell of international acclaim. Preserving a classing form while bringing it solidly into the future, the rebirth of the GT is an epic engineering feat that proves technology and innovation can preserve a classic form.
With a whopping 500 ft lb of torque this hand built, aluminum 5.4L supercharged 32-valve V8 produces an astounding 550 HP. Paired together with a Ricardo 6-speed manual transmission, this mid-engine powerhouse will launch you from 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. Any more thrust and you’d be starting from a launch pad! Good luck finding many other sports cars in the world that will be able to outgun this one on the racetrack. To top it all off the engineers added an Eaton screw-type supercharger to produce 12 psi of boost to achieve dizzying outputs off the line. Air passes through 70-mm throttle bodies where it is pressurized and then forced through an air-to-liquid intercooler before reaching the cylinders. Here it is mixed with fuel from the dual injectors producing breathtaking acceleration and thrust.
From the sweeping curves to the rear, angled exhaust tips and exposed diffusers this car is a modern masterpiece from every angle. Massive tires and functional air intakes on the side relay an unquenchable need for speed! The low profile look of the car is designed to hug the road it was born to rule. This Quick Silver Metallic Paint with black racing strips and black leather interior screams American muscle. This is a hand-crafted work of pure automotive art that finds full expression in motion, especially from behind the wheel.
Equipped with upper and lower aluminum control arms, coil springs, monotube aluminum dampers and tubular stabilizer bars, BBS painted cast aluminum 6 spoke wheels, Brembo cross-drilled and vented disc brakes, driver and passenger airbags, front fog lamps, securilock anti-theft system, cd/mp3 plater, power mirrors, power windows, power locks, power steering, and air conditioning.
