Ford GT in Mt View

About half an hour ago I saw a black Ford GT roll down El Camino Real in Mt View/Los Altos.
Stopped at the light and turned right on San Antonio Rd towards Los Altos.

Wish I had a camera. No plates yet, but no window sticker either. Could see the
driver since the car is so low!

I saw one in Fremont as well, and I also saw a sort of... "mini" version where the actual engine was viewable through the rear window. Thought it was badass though. (you can tell i'm not really knowledgeable about fords \: )

I saw a red one with white stripes at Santana Row two weekends ago. It TOTALLY overshadowed the boorish 360 Spyder parked next to it.

The GT40 is incredible in person. 200mph doesn't hurt either.

The 'mini' one would be a true GT40, or atleast a clone of a real one. The new Ford GT is markedly larger than the original 60's era GT40 mkII/III on which it is based. If the mini one you saw was real, you were looking at a $1,000,000+ car.

There are a few in private hands that get out around here once in a while, but for sure if you want to see a few of the real ones you should hit up the Monterey Historics in August.

Is there still a Concours D'Elegance in Hillsboro? If so you can see them there too.
