Styling

Authored by potterhead15

Few supercars have a more dramatic look than the new Ford GT. It has a wedged-shaped profile that incorporates some clever aerodynamic features. Huge buttresses that connect to the roof and rear wings channel air as efficiently as possible around the car, which has been influenced by the styling of F1 machines and Le Mans prototype racers. Like the original GT40 – named for its 40-inch height – this new GT is low and incredibly sleek.

The body is made from carbon fibre and the 20-inch wheels have been designed with weight-saving in mind. The rear spoiler is power-operated, constantly changing its height and angle depending on driving conditions.

Ford GT customers also have a choice of five brake calliper colours, while the spoilers and side skirts running along the bodywork are available in matte or glossy carbon fibre.
