Το νέο Ford GT θα βγει στην αγορά του χρόνου, με την Ford να παρουσίασε χθες το GT Concept στην έκθεση του Detroit. Ωστόσο όλοι μας θα έχουμε τη δυνατότητα να το οδηγήσουμε -εικονικά- στο Forza Motorsport 6, με το Ford GT να βρίσκεται μάλιστα στο εξώφυλλο του παιχνιδιού.
Αποκλειστικά διαθέσιμο σε Xbox One, στο παιχνίδι θα συναντάμε επίσης τόσο το Shelby GT350 Mustang όσο και το F-150 Raptor που τα είδαμε και αυτά στο Detroit.
