I saw a Ford GT!

Was in Michigan near Detroit for a wedding last weekend (it was great thank you.) I was on the way to the bride's father's house and saw a red GT!!!

Good chance it was Billy Ford driving as he lives down the road from where I saw it.

I nearly went into a coma. (my dream car)

Ford GT is a redux of the Ford GT40 of the sixties. After getting pissed that Ferrarri was getting all the attention, Ford built a challenge to the Le Mans. In it's first appearance it came in 3rd. The next year it place 1,2,3. It won the next two years as well.

The new car is *slightly* larger and of course has newer technology.
