After the performance in January 2015 at the Autoshow in Detroit, potential customers Ford literally ran into the booth. But only those who could go through an elaborate application program could register in the order lists of the new GT. Among prominent customers are the US presenter and car collector Jay Leno or the Scottish singer Amy McDonald.
2016 as an important year
Well, just two years after the unveiling in Detroit, Ford's chief developer Raj Nair did not let the first completed GT go out of production. The supersporters are produced in a specially manufactured factory in the American market. "When we started in 2016, we had two goals with the GT: to make a success at the 24-hour Le Mans race and the first deliveries before the end of the year," Nair said at the solemn ceremony First new GT.
