I will go with this.

Good add ..... says wants needed. Cobra isn't a problem in the mix as it such a big part of Ford heritage over all and really ...... if the GT was allowed to continue with the XC, that would have been a fitting end to that era as the XC Cobra GT.

I hate to be critical but for me its still a little wet. Yes the V8 sounds good and its got some nostalgia but wheres the excitement? Closed Track in a controlled environment for what? Did not look like any one of the cars got above 50kph. When Volvo can make ads and get them shown with their cars sliding about then im sure FPV can.
