I have just read the Carpoint Review http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/revie...ry.asp?ID=4758 and the acceleration times they extracted from the GT were dissapointing at 0 - 100km/h in 6.0 seconds and 0 - 400m in 14.23 seconds. Although that is using Wheels Correvit with two people on-board and half a tank of fuel (Done at Calder Park).

Now I know the GT is not all about acceleration times however that is still very disapointing. Yes I am confident we will see quicker times however using those figures as a base I wonder what times Wheels got out of the XR8 in their upcomming XR8 vs Clubsport review??

Another 'soft' GT, just what Ford needs. Remember the EB and EL, all show and not enough go. 290kw by a 240kw six cylinder! So why would you pay the extra to have a GT over an XR8 (or an XR6T)?
