I remember that car. That would have been a good successor to the GT.

Ewe; that car is not pretty, unlike a GT. I don't like that car one bit. JMVHO. The GT is way better looking.

Personally, if I were CEO of Ford, I'd take the GT body style and make it a direct competitor of the Corvette at all power levels. IMO, the 2005 Ford GT is the best looking car ever built.

That design looks way too busy. They tried too many design cues and it just looks like a heap of unused ideas.
