Ford GT review | Ford's new Le Mans-ready supercar tested | Autocar

Here it is at last: the new Ford GT. Almost a year after it won the GTE PRO category at Le Mans, we've driven Ford's new GT supercar in road-going trim.

Ford will build just 1000 of these GTs over the next four years. Each costs $450,000 and each is impossibly trick. The tub is carbon fibre and seats two occupants close together. Behind it is a 3.5-litre engine making a whalloping 647bhp.

But it's in the suspension and aero where the real genius lies - and why the GT is such a competitive racing car.

But does that make it a good road car?

​Join Matt Prior as we take the GT onto the roads in Utah, and onto the track at Utah Motorsport Campus, home of the Ford Performance ​Racing School, to test it to its limit.
