I hate the GR-1 too but seeing them all together does make it fit into the group rather quite well actually. Now all that they needed to have was a matching GT-R there and they would have it made, maybe an evolution of the last gen Thunderbirds there too. (I know they don't have a new Thunderbird concept but I think they could easily make one off the new Mustang platform.) Maybe it could look something like Chip Foose's Speedbird that he did for SEMA.

Okay, I'm confused. Which one is the Land Rover LR3?

If you all want to see it again, in person, you can come to my house...in the year 2000 and NEVER! Wouldn't that make the dream garage!

Anyone else notice how Ford keeps teasing us with that titanium silver but not offering it yet?

I love the colors on these cars. I was trying to decide if I wanted to put stripes on my 05 GT. These pictures have help make that decision a little easier. Very nice!!!!

The GR1 Looks So Much Like an Aston Martin to me in this pic. I LOVE IT! The designers at FORD really seem to have a grasp of what "MUSCLE" is. The GT is Classic Ford, the Mustang is Classic, yet Modern, the Cobra is Bare Bones, and the GR1 is simply Elegant in an Italian Sense, like a Ferrari Daytona or a Maserati.

FORD IS ON A ROLL!

Yup, it's amazing how when a company is in financial hot water it suddenly gets lean and innovative. It's good to see Ford finally leveraging the technology and design elements that come from owning all those other marques.

About the photo: it was definitely shot with a wide angle lens. You couldn't get that close to all three cars and get them all into the frame otherwise. You can also tell by looking at the building behind - some of the horizontal lines diverge ever so slightly, a dead giveaway of a wide angle lens.

Yeah, yeah, I know...who cares?

Makes the GR-1 look like the old Jags...
I don't think it's just a coincidence that Jaguar is considering putting a high-end 2-seater on the market and suddenly, Ford's got a b-e-a-utiful Shelby GT out on display...

If they're real smart (particularly at cost-cutting), they'll aim at dual badging simply by redesigning some stuff and producing it. We can only hope.

OR like a Shelby Daytona Coupe. That seems like the obvious styling cue to me.

Nope, the Pshop artist did it in post, to fit the width of the poster/ad, like the stretching of the sides of a 3/4 standard def tv show on a 16/9 HDTV. the center is not stretched at all.
that's pathetic PS work. why would you distort the image to fit it.

anyhow...not a PS technique thread.

it's a nice pic...love the cars.

That settles it. Titanium with stripes for me it is. That looks great in that light.
