Default C7 Z06 Pics...Stunning, plus more pics of the Toronto Car show














The C7 in yellow is really gorgeous, looks awesome when you see the car in person, I am corrected as I have been a little critical of the car, I am still not crazy about the weight...but it really looks great!! Let me know if I should post up more pics.

The Ford GT and GT350 were striking. The Z06 wasnt....GM missed the mark. Too bad!

The yellow z06 was really a piece of art, and had crowds around the car, the dodge viper didn't look right to me and sure didn't get much attention, the GTR and the Hellcat had a crowd, as did a lot of the hi end exotics. The mustangs were also getting a lot of attention. Another car that was a little disappointing to me was the Porsche 911 turbo, the tail was really subtle, and it was missing some bling factor, but I am sure if I test drove one it would more than make up for the bling.

I'm not personally a fan of the C7 looks. That GT350 is quite stunning though - and what a powertrain!!!

Ford's new show car only color - Liquid Blue, looks very similar to my Super Sonic Blue.
Brighter yes - but the same tone.

LOVIN the C7 Z06!!!!!!
Hope many more people don't like the style, so it will be easier to obtain!

Not going to be able to attend the show this year, I know photos are not the same as in person but I love the new GT and the GT350 too! A nice car is a nice car. Ford has stepped up their designs which is good for everybody. Competition is good!









... 41 days 'til GO TIME!!

You guys do realize that you're talking about the Ford GT and the Ford Mustang GT350, which are 2 different cars, right?

Ford GT with the TT V6


Ford Mustang GT350 with the 5.2L V8
