40th anniversary GT - Page 5

its meant to be reminiscent of the XC Falcon Cobra hardtop. last seen in 1978. the wheels look really good. with the "black gloss accent" the interior is also a bit different with silver stitching on a leather/ suede seat

I can take orders at any time.

I would expect atleast a $5k add on to the normal GT, whats the point in buying a limited edition if its not a little more exclusive price wise.

Rather than churn out 200 sedate rebadged GT-Ps, make this one stand out as the more race ready model. The current GT has pretty much the same features as an LTD, and the GT legend of old is no grandpa's car. Just the basics, and an agressive attitude.

No won't happen....

Would you pay $70,000 + for a stripped out GT ?

I wouldn't ....and neither would the buyers who are the target deomographic for the car.

I heard a rumour when I worked at a Ford Dealer, that there was to be a GT-P made in the same gold colour that the original GT's (XT?) came out in.
(Or has this already happened, I really don't pay much attention to the new vehicle market. For me, old-school is the way of the future! Lol!)

What they need, is a vehicle comparable to the XY GTHO Phase III. Unfortunately, that will never happen in this day and age. Too many regs, and too many do-gooders...
