RM-S8 Report post Posted February 10, 2015 h ttp://www.dpccars.com/gallery/index.php/New-Ford-GT-Engine-Sound-Videos If it sounds anything like this ... ouch! Low rpms are kinda okay, but the higher notes sound like Dyson's vacuum. is it really V6TT? The looks will quickly wear off like a 21 y.o. Thai hooker and one will be left with that horrible sound.

Destructo Report post Posted February 10, 2015 The more I see this car, the more I appreciate the previous generation. I'm sure it'll be a killer on the track, and Ford knows how to market the hell out of this, so they, as other have said, can sell it cheaply -presumably for a loss - and still make out like a bandit when they take orders for everything else.

You're basing your decision on the sound on a couple of videos of the car rolling along at 3 mph with the engine idling? While I too am skeptical about the sound of a V6, I think I am going to reserve judgment until I actually hear the thing under load. And personally I think the looks will become timeless.

This should give you a decent idea of what it will sound like under load. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBK Report post Posted February 10, 2015 You're basing your decision on the sound on a couple of videos of the car rolling along at 3 mph with the engine idling? There's nothing to be gleaned from those videos because that's a show car. I'll leave it at that. I was standing right behind it when they drove it off the stage at press intro and I thought it sounded pretty cool. Can't take much from the 3.5L in the DP car either. Acoustic tuning for a street car is a totally different scenario. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the Thai hooker comparison is bit over the edge, but I agree on all of your 3 statements. Let's wait. Btw, how about New Orleans's hooker comparo? They last much longer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griza Report post Posted February 12, 2015 That pic from the back looks like it was laser cut from a single block of aluminum. V6 or not, Ford knocked it out of the park. This is a serious looking machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

emanon Report post Posted February 12, 2015 My only fear is that it will be way too heavy. If they can somehow manage to get it down around 2600lbs it will be absolutely fcuking amazing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
