Those GT's are awesome cars, and with a little tuning and a pulley change you got a 700 HP exotic AMERICAN car that will embarrass vehicles from Europe bearing the Prancing horse emblem. If someone asked if I'd swap my Chevrolet Corvette for a Ford GT, I'd take the keys in a heartbeat! I hope GT's have a Torch Red interior option.....
