Huge thanks to Ai Design and Garage 42 for making this video possible. Thanks for Liking and Sharing the content, and here's to more bucket list cars!
Your welcome
@@phantomjosh2148 THANKS JOSH
@@ARentz07 your welcome
How many miles on this car? It looks brand new like it never left the showroom.
@Tedward Liked and shared. Thing sounds amazing. Just wondering, are you ever gonna drive any C6 corvettes?
Every time I see a Ford GT I think of Rob Spaghetti of Superspeeders trying to outrun a trooper during a cannonball run.
I think I’ve watched that a few too many times.
Rob Spaghetti 😅😅😅
I thought the exact same thing, what a legendary video
"punch it kid" 😂
@@michaeltian you say 'watch It' or 'punch It'?
He's done the LFA, The Ford GT, now all we need is to find Tedward a Carrera GT to review!
Summer goals!!!
@@TedwardDrives there was a gorgeous silver CGT at Larz Anderson’s last German Car Day with Massachusetts plates. Let’s hope they’ll maybe hit you up and let a video be made with it 🤔
Naw, do a Reliant Robin 😎
A f40 to would be amazing
And a Dacia Sandero.
Love how one day you are driving a civic and the next you’re in a Ford GT…jealous!
The clutch in my civic has never felt lighter than when I drove home from this shoot lol
@@TedwardDrives civic be like : you know you want it 😏
@@TedwardDrives i hate that feeling so much. I have to remember how to drive again. You probably don’t experience this much with the auto rev match but having to relearn your throttle sensitivity again. The worst lol
The modified exhaust is great too. A fitting amount of volume for this car, but not a deafening raspy mess that would make it harder to enjoy
OMFG - I *love* the exhaust sound!! Anyone know what make it is; Corsa (there's a discount code in this video's .. notes)?
That supercharger sounds great. So often they're just obnoxious, but this one is just a note complementing the engine.
"Obnoxious" Typical snob unable to appreciate lifes simpler pleasures.
I could listen to that 5.4L V8 sing all day, everyday for the rest of my life! It's absolute music to my ears!
This is, in my opinion, the best car I've seen you review so far.
Appreciated!
Definitely one of the cleanest whips ever made
This was a treat! You captured the essence of the GT so well. I hope to take one for a drive myself, one day. 👍
Hey Miles, nice to see you here.
Please do! Man I feel sooooo lucky that this one happened
Along with your laid-back, down to earth and frankly hilarious persona - your enthusiasm for cars is so inherent and genuine its almost childlike lol. The perfect youtube carguy. This channel is a gem; great episode.
Still one of my favorite gauge cluster designs after all these years - speedo alllll the way over to the right because it matters the least haha
The 5.4 4 valve is one of the best sounding engines, wow
I really enjoyed driving these cars. More fun than most V8 Ferrari’s imo. The gearshift, clutch and all the controls were sublime.
Mentioning Thomas and James gave me all the good feels! Your channel and TH are my ride or die when it comes to cars.
Finally a fellow car enthusiast of CZcams
10:09 Hitting almost 90MPH in 2nd is *insane.* No wonder why the car doesn't feel as fast as it should with gears that long!
Funny how even though the GT has a different exhaust setup, it sounds VERY similar to my GT500 with 550hp. :D I hear more whine though on mine. H-pipe with Borla mufflers
I was definitely surprised that the whine was only mildly apparent at high revs. I expected it to be front and center but it settles into the background nicely.
@@TedwardDrives Also I bought mine already modified, so the smaller pulley and JLT intake probably make the whine more pronounced. I never rode in a stock one to compare unfortunately. Great video and thank you for posting it! The Ford GT/40 has always been my favorite car....so jealous. :)
American V-8s just have a certain roar to them!
To be honest they sound nothing alike. The gen 2 gt500 might share the same engine.... put them next to each other do take offs guarantee you will not be saying they sound alike
Love your driving, man. The car culture is currently experiencing an epidemic of ineptitude, but you're out there hitting downshifts with good rev-matching and generally just driving like you know how to operate a car fully. Well done.
Hugely appreciated! Its very frustrating watching some of the new generation driving without regard for others or simply beating the snot out of cars lol
Now THIS is special!
The older these gets, the cooler and better looking they get
I've ridden in one in podunk Moulton, Alabama back in 2007... The owner of the local Ford dealership took me out after referring a sale to them or offering me $100 - I took the ride in the GT! We hit 140mph - thats all he'd do on the roads there :)
The engine behind you that you can see turning that supercharger is what sticks out most. This is 10000x better than that v6 abomination they came out with recently.
I can't get enough of that fucking sound. Best 5.4 sound I've heard. Wonder if I can get an F150 to sound like that lol
Surely to God; that has to be the best looking US production sports car ever made. A thing of rare beauty.
Its my dream car, the one car that epitomizes the definition and love of automobiles. I've owned so many fun cars and motorcycles, and 2 Shelby GT500s, but they really aren't in the same class or realm as the Ford GT. The way the Ford team and Shelby brought this car about, the racing history, MAKING history. Its absolutely unmistakable.
I think I've never liked so much a car sound than this one. The linearity of the acceleration, the round sound loud just the perfect way. This is pure art.
I remember being in high school seeing one of these at the Villa Ford dealership in the late 00's and being very intimated. As an adult I really appreciate how much power it puts to the road
A legendary American supercar! Cannot wait to learn manual to drive these power vehicles in the future!
I can't help but notice that the indicator stalk is from a Mk5/6 Fiesta lol
I've only ever see one in my life, it was Black in Florida and the noise! Woww what a machine!
Now you need to drive a Superformance GT40 to see what the real one is like!
10000000% my dream. I would love to drive one
What an incredible vehicle. Amazing noise too. Loving the videos Ted!
I know someone who owned one of these and once he just blipped the throttle a little too hard in a low-ish speed turn and spun it out. He was NOT inexperienced with high-performance cars. This thing is a beast.
Haha same here !
Back in the good old days where most your super car was a manual unlike now days
The downshifts sound incredible.
I love the sound of the downshifts even more than the sound of winding it out.
Man this is great to see. You're living the dream brother. Never stop being awesome ❤️
Incredible. Glad to see that you're getting access to more amazing cars! 👏
Be it VFM Fiesta, Be it Expensive GT.. Its always gives you goosebumps while driving a FORD.
What a machine! Was so underated for some time, now is getting the attention she deserves. An all time classic, definitely a car to have and enjoy if you have the money.
Wow! never thought much of this car, but this video has really opened my eyes to how cool it is. Thanks for making this awesome POV!
Always loved the Ford GT. The design and sound caught my interest 😎
The sound of these are so iconic, Youll know its a ford gt just when you hear it.
Thanks for the great drive-along. One of the best. You certainly made great use of I95, and out wasn't gridlocked!
Amazing video! This car is secured in my top 3 all time. Wow
Great driving video in a beautiful location with a great driver.
The audio was superb with the badass exhaust note.
Increíble!
That thing sounds sooo Intoxicating, especially on the upshifts, I'm In love!
I find the placement of the of the tachometer and speedometer to be interesting. This car places the tachometer in front center of the dash where it can be very easily seen. And the speedometer is placed all the way to the right of the driver to where it takes some effort to read the speedometer. I guess that when driving this car the driver is not too concerned about how fast he is going.
What a machine! And the sound is just perfect
Had an RC Ford GT as a kid, such a nostalgic car
Tedward, you are one lucky man! What an experience that must've been in person because on video it was great!!!
Honestly I was just so grateful the whole time. I couldn't believe I was getting this quality time with the GT
@@TedwardDrives top guy top car
Oh man Tedward you always review beautiful cars.Thank you
I appreciate that even in such a nice car, you still use your turn signal and are courteous. Small, but really important.
One of your best yet
I chuckle when you open it up because it looks like so much fun and I can't help it
Very nicely done
Absolutely LOVE that color combo!
So satisfying ride to watch
Oh my god, what a stunning sports car that is! As you say: beautiful and iconic. The shape is timeless and so so pretty. The only car that can match the Miura in looks!
Wow the Ford Grand Tedward, amazing car.
What a beast of a car - great drive to watch!
So satisfying drive to watch
Regarding the suspension being "soft" for a race car, you have to remember that this was 2006. Even the most hard core production cars are soft by today's standards. Track day specials and cars that are track first, street second didn't really become a thing until about 10 years ago, and really only in the last 5 years or so were they done by most MFGs.
Your videos are getting better and better and i always compare you to topher i now consider you BOTH among my youtube favorites. I used to prefer thetopher no offense but youve caught up and your doing so excellent bro! And a fellow Massachusetts guy, keep killin it Ted!
Epic drive, epic car, epic exhaust note!
Would have liked to hear more about the shifter feel. To me that is an integral part of the manual driving experience.
that part of 95 is my commute! wish i saw this thing ripping around hah
Best experience of my life riding in one for the day.
The vid I been waiting for
Ted, you probably had a hard time sleeping the night before this just from the excitement. Maybe you can get it a second time and take it to a race track!
I saw one of these “snap” and spin in circles several times at Lime Rock, it’s a good thing no other cars were near it. Still, driving it must be a truly epic experience. Too bad Ford didn’t just keep making these in limited numbers, like a beautiful old Miura, it’s a shame to just see them die off until someday they’re just gone forever.
There are several kit car manufacturers that make a Ford GT, and some of them are really impressive.
Aha, Wow! That's pretty awesome. Nice job Ted, 👍.
This guy Tedward has the best job man
I got to sit in one back in ‘06 thanks to the chill dudes at Brandon Ford. Was too young to think about looking at which # it was but it was one of the (many I’m assuming) Red with White stripes ones. Still one of my faves and I stubbornly use it in any game it shows up in 🤘🏻
Speechless. What a car. The color scheme amazing. Do not have the words.
Amazing car, great video!
OMG, that is my dream car! The color and stripes are perfect! If I had the money, that car would be mine!
Absolutely love this car, I hope I get to try one some day
My uncle owns two. One that sits in the garage as an investment, and another for having fun on the weekends.
I'm only a little god dang jealous..... ok I'm extremely jealous. Thank you for another awesome video and thank you for driving another awesome car how it should be driven!
Thank you
I saw one on my exurban road last summer, and exotic cars are pretty rare on the street around here (which is not far from where you are driving these cars). Probably owned by one of my more affluent neighbors, I hope to see it again!
Thanks!
Aaaaaahhhhh the Ford GT is my ultimate dream car!! Thank you for doing this! 💜💜
Yet another big like👍 Greetings from sunny Croatia🇭🇷
that thing sounds incredible
Beautiful car , didn’t expect this car review but damn I’m thankful. . . Such an awesome beast
Thanks for sharing this with the rest us…dream car material 😍
This Vid was a Beauty
One of my favourite supercars of the 2000s!!
As soon as it said ford gt I instantly got my headphones on, love thease cars
a beast..beautiful. thank you Ford
This video made me smile. Every time you dropped a gear and put the foot down😁😁😁 WOW💥💥
Thank you!!
@@TedwardDrives Love watching your videos from Scotland, UK 👍🏻🇬🇧🏴
I’m glad you mentioned Throttle House. When James spun that one out was one of the best videos of theirs I think,tho all are great. The look on his face is priceless when it’s happening.😳🤣🤣🤣
nice ride!
Fell in love with this car as a kid when i played it on gt4
The car is AWESOME!! 👍🏻👍🏻
My dream car, in what I think is the best colour combo. In my opinion, the greatest (and best looking) car ever made.
This is the only successor of the original Ford GT that I recognize. Anything after the 2006 model is a farce.
OMG! This is WILD. Such a experience
You’ve had some good videos. But I clicked on this one faster than any other. This has always been my dream car. Well, until the value doubled in a matter of a few years lol.
TEARS IN MY EYES MAN................THAT CAR................THAT ONE AND ONLY CAR...................ANYWAYS........GODBLESS MY MOTHER . I MISS HER SO MUCH. THANKS FOR THE CHOICE TED////////////////////REALLY BRO .
Yes! another tedward video!
