Looks excellent. That has to easily be the most attractive green machine I have ever seen...
Looks like the Shelby GR-1
No it hasn't because news just came out on it today with word from Derek Kuzak that the programs existence isn't being denied. The details however are not even close to what this article is claiming. There hasn't been any solid details except that it will probably incorporate the hybrid powertrain.
Well, the folks over on Ford GT forum, who have very high up connections at Ford have been saying it is 100% false and there is no FGT sucessor in the works. Just because it hasn't been denied by one person doesn't make it true.
This very same "leak" came out months back. Journalists these days will publish anything that will get attention, even if they have zero proof to back it up.
That pic above is obviously a massive photochop of a few concept cars mashed together. Until there is a least a shred of evidence that appears even 50% correct, this is all speculation.
Well Kuzak is pretty high up and while I know these guys like to play games and keep rumors going a lot of the time when they don't deny projects like these (e.g. Blue Devil/ZR1) there's something going on. Ford is in a good position right now to do something like this. Sure a supercar isn't what they need but a hybrid supercar could bring them so much publicity for the rest of rheir vehicles and they're hybrid developments. I'm sure you understand how it works. I'm just not willing to believe that something of that sort isn't being worked on.
