Lookout OUSCI - - I'm going to order one and take the win in 2016!

Oh wait, I'm poor and can't drive.........

In all seriousness, this thing looks amazing!

Not sure of my opinion yet. The last GT looked so much like the original GT40 that you couldn't dislike it. This one is edgy & with an EcoBoost V-6.

My son, Alex, has money down on one already.

I loved the "repop" version of the GT40.... but this new one is almost as bad ass as the Porsche 918....

I love this thing, and I understand they put a 3.5L Ecoboost because they want to race the 4.0L category in LeMans. They'd be crazy not to offer a v8!

Also, Tag Juechter, chief Corvette engineer, did say that the production version of the GT will have to look quite a bit different to meet crash standards. First of all, it will need bumpers.
