Now I know we’re a Mustang site, but if you don’t like the Ford GT Supercar… well, there’s just no hope for you! When Ford reintroduced roughly 4,000 GT Supercars in 2005-2006, not only were they a 550hp-supercharged, street-legal, economically priced beast, but they brought back a legacy of racing history. It’s been over 6 years now, and it looks like some concept designers are getting ansy!
One of my favorites is this new design by Camilo Pardo. You might know his work… he’s a former Ford Designer – the same guy who brought you the GT Supercar back in 2005! Here’s what he had to say about this latest creation:
“With the last Ford GT, we basically had to make it look like the original. With this design, I wanted to leave retro behind and create something more progressive, more futuristic. It goes back to the early clay models we did for the GT90 show car, which was too Star Trek for the public to accept. Note the simplicity of the surfaces; the rear three-quarter and side air intake are now one smooth movement. All the visual energy is channeled to the back. The vehicle gets large back there, which indicates lots of power. A change in dimensions is what makes the form exciting.”
So I want to know what you guys think about this? Hot or Not?

About Chris Rose
This hobby became serious when I went to work for a local speed shop. Within a few years, I helped build the business into a nation-wide name that focused on modifying and tuning late-model Mustangs. We equipped ourselves with a chassis dyno, lifts, mechanics and that is where I gained my SCT and Dynojet Certifications. I spent 6-7 years there, building and custom tuning in the best and most passionate automotive industry; the Mustang aftermarket. Since the move to AmericanMuscle in April of 2010, I have purchased my second Mustang – a Grabber Orange 2007 GT (supercharger coming soon)! My Google+ Profile
