Nice! I like the rear end.
Those flying buttresses are cool.
The front and side.. hm...

Nice, great modernization of the GT40 shape. Going to run a 3.5 litre Ecoboost V6 apparently. Wonder if this means it'll me aimed closer to Corvette than Ferrari territory pricewise?
V8 would have been nice, but it's not surprising that Ford want to promote their ecoboost engines. Still, it's enough to propel the old F150 pickup even before the new Aluminium bodied models so in a wee car should fly.

On a semi related note, the oft rumored mid-engined Corvette seems to be actually happening. A rather strange looking Holden UTE bodied mule has been spotted:
It will surely need to be priced to compete with the Z06 so about $100k with options.
I find Ford's downsizing a bit puzzling. This is Murica after all, who cares about fuel economy and CO2 and all that rubbish. The F150 uses an MP3 sound track with that engine, so be prepared for disappointment. What's kind of funny is reusing an engine from a pickup in a sports car. Incidentally, the reason Chevy didn't go for a dual-clutch gearbox in the Corvette was because they had to use a gearbox that would be shared with pickups in order to keep the costs down.
