I can't disagree... but I don't see the Viper or the ZR1 making the list 20 years down the road.

They made too many Vipers, and will have made too many ZR1s by the time they stop making them.

They made the same prediction regarding the last ZR1, and look where it is languishing...

What will kill many on that list is a lack of competitive history. The Ford GT simply rests on the laurals of its pappy; the Reventon and Bugatti have no racing heritage, same with the Enzo. The McClaren F1 and the Viper are the only ones with racing history. Very good history, at that.

I will be curious to see how accurate they are.

I'm with Brad, the Ford GT is something to behold! I saw one like in the picture at a big Ford dealer when they were offered. It was pretty much a work of art in my book. The dealer had bought it for his own collection. I did not see any C4's on the list.

The GT is near perfection in sheet metal. They did a bang up job on it, but compare the new to the old, and the new looks gigantic!
