You know, I hadn't thought of that. Maybe I should go out and pick on some GTO's and F-bodies from time-to-time just to be sure I meet my destruction quotas. Not really, as I bought my car for my own pleasure, not to prove something to anyone else. But it is an idea.

Ford GT Specs
Top Speed: 205 mph / 330 km/h
0-60 mph: 3.6 seconds
0-100 mph: 7.8 seconds
0 - 1/4 Mile: 11.6 sec @ 126.2 mph
Engine: DOHC V-8, supercharged
Sadly, no. The Ford GT was intended for a very specific, limited production run to celebrate Ford's 100th anniversary and they are no longer in production. Ford offers nothing to compete directly with the Corvette. It was nice when you had the Corvette, Viper and Ford GT going head-to-head though.
