The 2017 Ford GT Will Feature Some Hardcore Software



Ford was so serious about keeping details of its 2017 GT from being revealed before the car's debut at the 2015 North American International Auto Show that it kept the design and engineering processes for it secret from most of its own employees.

A super charged 5.0l would have been perfect for the GT but Ford decided to screw the GT40 and previous GT over with an Ecoturd. I guess they needed another vehicle to use their V8 engine sounds thru the radio on. What a waste of $400k.

10M lines of code is a lot of opportunity for errors.

$400K price is incredibly ridiculous. You could make a "stupid rich" Sprint phone commercial out of that for bad decision making. 600 Hp Ecoboost can be created in any driveway in America.
