Ze hebben met deze modellen zoveel succes, waar ze waarschijnlijk niet van hebben durven dromen en toch blijkt het waarheid te zijn geworden.

Ford Performance recently announced it will offer the all-new Ford GT for two additional production years, bringing the production commitment to the carbon fibre supercar to a total of four years.
