This is a new, old, continuation, one-off Ford GT40 with lots of modifications and a tweaked engine from the new Ford GT racer. Got your head wrapped around that? Good, because what it really is, is tuner Superformance"s idea of a future GT40. It has come up with this custom build tribute to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Ford"s now-famous 1968 Le Mans win. The "Future GT Forty" created by Superformance sits on a Mk1 GT40 rolling chassis and gets the same 3.5-litre Ford EcoBoost twin-turbocharged V6 engine from the current GT, here prepped to "competition" standard and treated to a handmade Magnaflow exhaust. The turbos come courtesy of Honeywell-Garrett. No power output is specified but we suspect it"ll be much".
