I think it needs to make up some ground in terms of refinement, but dang, it's great looking.

Looks hot as hell. A very nice and faithful update to the last two generations of GT.

It looks great til' I see the rear from above. Just the way they designed it, as if they forgot to build it to accommodate rear wheels, or they just wanted it look as aerodynamically crazy as possible. Curious how much of it makes production.

Because of this, I feel it doesn't pay much homage at all to the GT40 beyond the front bumper. The fact the interior in no way pays any homage to the GT's iconic layout or that it's not packing the beloved 'Murica V8 makes it worse.

This could just have been another supercar built from some no-name brand from Northern Europe. I'm impressed Ford wants to build this, not impressed it shits on their most iconic car's image just because it happens to be mid-engine, rear wheel drive.

Absolutely love the exterior of the new GT, but the interior is lacking to me.

Damn, that looks good. I hope they tweak the interior and back a bit so it doesn't look like a pig snout but this thing is seriously nice.
