Sure looks like it, but I wasn't there. Maybe a Ford beats Ferrari at Lemans type exhibit, maybe someone who attended could confirm...

Yes it is the Ferrari P4. That and the GT40 are part of a display in the South Building dedicated to Aerodynamics in Automotive Design along with some Indy cars of old and a '41 and a '59 Continental. Also a nice '58 Bonneville Fuelie amongst others.

At the end of that hall, they have a Rolls Royce display with a dozen Rollers from 1903 to 1982. Some absolutely stunning cars.

The Ford display is in the prime location at the top of the escalators in the North Building. Right there as you come up is a black Saleen, a Legend Lime convert and Silver, Screaming Yellow and Windveil Blue GT coupes.

Also in the display were the Redfire coupe and convert shown with weird blue lighting that made them look purple.
There is a SYQ Steeda next to them.

On a stage were the Ford GT (even though we cannot get it in Canada) and the Fusion. Pictured next to the GT was the CAVGT40. A very authentic and well researched replica in the original Gulf team colours. An awesome car in its own right.

The Ford display is well done this year.

its just that the Toronto autoshow gets all the concept cars a year or two AFTER all the major shows.

The Ford display was amazing this year I must say. All of the mustangs especially made my day. I went on the first Friday (opening day).
