I firmly believe either Ford is seriously under rating their horsepower ratings on the GT or they provided a ringer for this test.

If those numbers from C/D are true, then there's no way you can beat the price/performance of the GT - even the GT3 wouldn't come close. For $150k, you can do 150mph in less than 17sec and lap a road course 2sec faster than the most track-oriented offerings from Porsche and Ferrari (save the exclusive Enzo and Carrera GT, of course). That's almost untouchable. Rather than the 360 CS and GT3, it should be compared to the Koenigsegg, Carrera GT and Enzo, IMO. If that were the case, the GT would be the 'Z06' of the super-supercars.
