Classics Supercar - Ford GT 90

The GT90 concept was the first example of what Ford called "edge design" in which numerous hard-edged surfaces seem to collide with one another. In this way, the GT90 almost resembles a Stealth Fighter. And, like a Stealth Fighter, the GT90 features similarly advanced materials, taken straight from race car technology: a honeycomb aluminium chassis, carbonfibre body and ceramic exhaust.

Performance included a top speed 250 mph (402 km/h) from a 720 hp (537 kW) quad-turbocharged V12 engine, the exhaust of which was claimed to be hot enough to damage the body panels, requiring ceramic tiles similar to those on the space shuttle to prevent this.

Why is this news? I remember this concept like 5 years ago... They ended up remaking the GT40 instead.

I have a 1:18 die cast of the GT90.

There. Do I make the Autospies headlines?

I always thought the GT90 was cool.

And I'd rather have an article like this posted than some argument-causing customer survey crap that just brings out fanboys from all sides.
