Ford GT (2017)
Why 2.8: Application-gated with a two-year no-sale clause — Ford sued John Cena for flipping his. The clause expired and the flips began; a racecar-honest machine owned mostly as an allocation trophy.

Sound
There is no insulation, so the EcoBoost V6's turbos, wastegates and gear whine all reach you directly and it sounds mechanically busy. But a 3.5 turbo six in a car of this ambition is thin, and it flattens where a V8 would climb. Its weakest element.

Child seats · ISOFIX
There aren't any — strict two-seater.
The only position there is, so makers of this era equip it: expect a passenger-airbag cut-off (key switch or occupant sensing) as standard, because there is no rear row to point children to. Whether the seat itself carries ISOFIX anchors is maker-specific — Porsche bundles them with its child-seat preparation, Ferrari sold them as an option, others are belt-mount only with the airbag off.
Derived from production years and seating layout, not a per-car source. ISOFIX was standardised as ISO 13216 in 1997, required on new EU model types from 2011 and on all new EU cars from 2014.
The long version
The lawsuit made headlines, but it only delayed the inevitable — once the two-year no-sale clock ran out, a large share of the allocation moved through auction houses rather than driveways, each sale priced off the last one instead of off any time logged behind the wheel. What is left in first-owner hands splits cleanly: a minority who chase the Le Mans pedigree at track days, and a majority for whom the car functions as a very expensive receipt proving they got the call from Ford. Both groups keep the mileage low; only one of them minds.
