20 Car Comebacks Auto Fans Waited For

  1. Ford GT

The original Ford GT 40 made history in the ‘60s and its early 2000s counterpart became one of the fastest cars of the period. Now, Ford has presented a superbly advanced but basic Ford GT with modern technology and unbelievable performance. But the engine of the new GT is particularly interesting.

It is a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with 656 HP that gives the car a 0 to 60 mph time of just 2.8 seconds. Also, the top speed is 216 mph. What is interesting about it is that the GT engine is the same as the 3.5 EcoBoost V6 from an F-150 pickup truck. And although there is a lot of different details, the basic architecture, block, displacement and turbo technology are all the same.
