    I was confused at first by how thick those doors look but I suppose it has to do with the shape of the car with the center/cabin section narrowing toward the back. Moving that much material out of the way should make ingress/egress easier than it is in a lot of supercars.

    yeah, with the door being that thick the door sill doesn't have to be. Much easier to get in and out of..

    I'm glad they retained the genius of the hind quarter lines of the original. Ford has my attention, and would have my money if you people would buy 100 of everything on my website right now. Chop chop.

    It's gonna take about that much, I think, maybe more given they say it will be priced near $400K!

    That's big money. Hope it's worth it.

    yeah, that part of it doesn't look to good. Wonder why they didn't cars the body down to it instead of leaving that gap.. Guessing AERO reasons..
