Just a really nice exotic is what it is. It just isn't as "hardcore" as the cars it is was made to emulate. Still really nice. A little overpriced, but nice nonetheless.
One more beef. Why in the heck did Ford put such a common engine in the GT? Where's the exotic part? I know it's beefed up from a "normal" cobra 5.4L, but they could have at least put a 5.0 Cammer with some turbos in it...
