The supercar lineage going back to the Lamborghini Miura makes the midengine layout the holy grail for car nerds. If you stick that massive drivetrain in the middle of a vehicle rather than hanging it off either end, the chassis will be better balanced and thus outperform the pack, right? General Motors had an idea: Why not offer midengine supercar …
I've always wanted a V6 Formula. Never cared for the body kit on the GT.
If video games are any indication, this thing was a hoot in Forza 4. I painted "Ford GT" stripes on mine and called it a "Fiordo GT Kit Car" 
My wife had one of those back when they were new. Her dad swapped in a 5 speed. Guy in a 3/4 ton truck ran over her. There was a wreck, and the traffic was being routed around it. He went around the people being detoured on the shoulder and t boned her going about 50 mph. Surprising she was not killed. He would probably have gone to prison if his father were not a constable that did the accident report himself.
I owned an 87 and an 88 GT at the same time so was in a position to compare the two. The suspension on the 88 was way better than the older models.
I did up a 300 bhp engine for it (turbo, stroked etc.) and drove it for twenty years as my daily driver. Pic of old and the replacement.
