GT 40, Born out of spite

In 1963, Henry Ford II took Enzo Ferrari’s refusal to sell his Maranello company so personally that he decided to create his very own racing department to build a car that would outperform Ferrari at Le Mans. That car was the GT40, a masterpiece deserving of its own tale. It has become so iconic and ingeniously designed that even in its modern reimagined form, it remains highly captivating. The GT40 occupies a special place in automotive history.
