The GT has a V6 to meet the regs of the endurance racing class its raced in. LM GTE class has a max displacement of 4L for a turbo engine.

So your saying Ford developed a $500,000 super car just for Le Mans??? I doubt it. If the V-8TT WAS A REALITY it would be in the GT...period end of story... CAFE rules are going to prohibit car companies from manufacturing these gas guzzlers. The current Ecoboost HO makes more power and TQ then the old 6.2. The only reason this keeps coming up is because some are butt hurt about the sound...

lol no. The reason the GT has the engine it has is due to race regulations. The sole purpose of building the car again was to race.

quit talkin out of yer arse.

Listen ass hat it's all about ford technology and making the almighty dollar...

"You’ve Never Seen Anything Like This Before.
Innovation. That’s what the Ford GT is all about. From its aerodynamically optimized shape to its multifunctional buttresses to its extraordinarily powerful 3.5L EcoBoost[emoji768] V6 engine, everything about the Ford GT is designed to deliver pure performance."

"Performance and Technology.
This Ford GT is the ultimate expression of form following function. Its teardrop-shape body is the result of extensive work in the wind tunnel. Its carbon-fiber body and its 647 horsepower 3.5L EcoBoost[emoji768] V6 engine are the ultimate expressions of technological innovation. "

You just questioned rather ford would create a 500k supercar just to fit a specific race class, that's what they did, auto manufacturers have been doing it as long as sanctioned race classes have existed. You're an idiot.
