S.O.P

The fact that Aventadors have stayed as high as they have with such a high initial MSRP and that number of units is impressive. Still one of the best looking cars, ever.

Consistent too...

I think it actually looks cool. Interior is awesome. Rear tail lights are sweet. I just definitely would not buy it, not that I have that problem. It looks like the kind of car that could be 90% of the Aventador replacement.

Just went 8s.

The vast majority of these cars will end up being owned by people that bought a $150k car ten years ago that never thought there would be another and Ford dealers that have spent tens or hundreds of millions of dollars on Ford inventory. I don't see a lot of crossover with er, the big balls internet finance club. I also still fail to see how it is at all Ferrari-ish. Ferrari makes you buy a specific succession of cars to get in line for the never-ending lineup of special stuff everyone knows is coming, and if you deviate, you're out. Ford is like "hey, you still own that car from like ten years ago? Want to buy something nobody ever thought would come out?" I don't know why you're complaining about their chosen allocation process if you're too broke to play the big ballers game. What do you think the open market street price of the car would be in the US at 150 units per year? It'd be a lot more than $450k, I assure you of that. People continue to pay $350-450k for a silly paint job on the old car, and they made 343 of those. You're also wildly underestimating how much money is floating around the global economy. 200 people in the world? There are 10x that amount of people with a net worth sufficient to buy the entire production run of this car.

That interior is astonishingly hideous.

It's not out yet. It's an online thing. It'll be in the next couple weeks.

Max is 250 annually globally. Production is 250 because the car is time consuming to build. The majority of the car is CF done in MM's 10 atmosphere autoclaves. They'll be able to complete about 1 car per day once the process is up and running. They could probably build a few more, but not many, and certainly not within the margin for error they need. It took a while to get from 2-3 cars up to 9 cars daily on the last one. The new car came together so quickly that production is going to start very slowly. They will produce a tiny number of cars in calendar year 2016. The only people capable of guaranteeing anyone a car are Bill Ford and Mark Fields. Short of that, until you've seen your name on the allocation letter from the company, it's all in the air. Do I think they will sell me one? Yes. Is that any kind of guarantee? No. A lot can change in a couple years. A $400k car with many options is never a lock to sell-out. Markets blow up all the time. That said, I think people are going to be blown away by the car when they finally get to see the full madness and given the performance/rarity/heritage not even blink at the price.

Congrats on the fastest overall speed of the day and the event including all runs before and after that run.

No, it is not $600k. It's amazing how fast clickbait travels.

Name one. GT exists in a class of it's own. Closest car I can compare it to is the P1 if you took out weight and the hybrid stuff. It would easily be over a million if it was Ferrari or Mac. The car is an engineering tour de force. Pricing is $4xx.

It's not out yet. Just go to http://www.ford.com/performance/gt/ It'll be up there in the next couple weeks.

Shortly. Very early in 16. The internet.

Great pics as always.

Sorry we couldn't get that third one locked in. It was worth a shot.

Dealer thing is tonight. This car looks incredible. Still looks like a baby next to the Aventador but I think it blows the rest of the segment away on aesthetics.

Not gonna happen. Besides, I've had service fcuk up cars of every stripe. Lambo just came back from first service with a bunch of surface scratches. Drives me nuts.

SEMA

Lots of time in 12C, 650S and Huracan. Not a big enough difference between 12C and 650S to switch (if it's costly). Personally, Huracan is most fun overall for a street car. 488 will be hard to come by for a while.

I can't remember what they told me the power was but it was RWD with slightly less power than the 610.

Ford picked the best of a bunch of bad options on allocation. If they were regularly in the business of building supercars, it would definitely be a different story, but based on the circumstances surrounding production and what happened with the last car, I don't really see a better alternative. There are definitely more US Ford dealers who would be willing to keep it sitting on the floor forever than there will be U.S units, in which case, there's no real point in building more than the minimum homologation quantity. Ferrari, Lambo, Mac, don't have that problem. Second problem is collector car status of the last car. Virtually ensures an open market for the new car would relegate the majority into collections that never see the light of day, which again defeats the purpose of building it. Just my opinion.

Next to 650S and Speciale:
