    Looks like they stuck that thing in a car crusher, got it half crushed and decided to stop.. If I wanted something that looked somewhat like a lambo, I'd buy one..

    That's because this is what the "new" GT40 was going to be. These pictures are ancient. I can remember receiving them in email back in 1998.

    Ford dropped this project in favour of making the GT40 replica (simply called the 'GT').

    I think it looks pretty sweet for a concept car.

    thats what i was thinking.... the sharp lights etc, they probably had it on the drawing board at the same time next to the AU.
    unfortunately for them this thing looks better than the AUgly.

    No it isn't. Its an Elfin. They're made in a workshop in South Melbourne which is completely separate from Holden's operations.

    They have Holden engines and are being sold by Holden, but are most definitely NOT Holdens.

    I refer you to this page for further info:

    Jeez talk about a step back in time.

    This is the Ford GT90 and its been around since like 1995.

    I remember driving one on Need for Speed on the computer when I was in primary school.

    The front end doesn't look too bad, but the rest of the car isn't in proportion and the ass-end is ugly.
