Ford GT at Encinitas Ford (0-60 in 3.3 seconds?)

A place to hang out and discuss all things Porsche.

I'd choose a Carrera GT any day of the week over a Ford GT. Despite both being mid-engine, the CGT's engineering and suspension are designed for one purpose, making sure it obliterates its competitors on the track, something Ford still won't come close to competing against and winning. :burnout:

So would I, no doubt about it, but fortunately (or unfortunately, as the case may be), unless I win the Lotto, my financial realities will ensure I never have to make such a choice (except in my dreams.) :D

TT
(edit- of course in my dreams, I can have BOTH of them! And a McLaren F1, a Ferrari Enzo, a Dauer 962LM, several GT3 RSRs, etc., etc., plus a 25-car garage and a staff of mechanics to keep everything in top shape)

Tom, you might need to win the lotto twice also! I would have to win three times, once to pay off the past and twice more to buy into dreamland.
