I'm only quoting what I read on the M600 Speedster thread from a couple of days ago, but I find it believable. I was just thinking how much more distinctive this is, even if it's not what you'd call conventionally pretty.

Specs aside, it does look mighty impressive. Oddly it seems to have outdone Lamborghini in the dramatic looks department. Well done Ford.

It certainly isn't likely to be cheap with a CFRP monocoque.

That is stunning! Makes the new NSX look so drab in comparison!

Don't understand some of the negativity - I think that looks absolutely spectacular.

I think it looks very similar to the old Vector to me.

Well done Ford.
50 years after it stuck 2 fingers up to Ferrari, it has again shown that, when it wants to, it can build something so aspirational and emotional. Stunning and in so many ways cooler than something from one of the obvious supercar marques.
Let's hope it drives with real character, not that I well ever find out....

Just a hint of Lamborghini Asterion, especially in the front quarter view? Perhaps it's the colour...

+1. I hope the actual drive matches up to the stunning looks and spec sheet.
