I want one too. I have always loved the GT-40 look and at least this rendition is streetable and more female friendly than a lot of other exotic cars.
I was told by someone at Ford SVT that Ford plans to crash test a production car vs a test mule and if all goes well (meets new bumper standards pending), they plan to continue production past 2007. Otherwise, it will be production limited.
I hope parts for it will not be restricted to GT owners only, since my Cobra R 5.4L has many of the same parts. I have not gotten wild with my R since many engine parts were one-off's and till now as expensive as Lamborgini.
Ironically, all Cobra Rs only had safety & emissions warranty only, but I don't think Ford could have gotten away with making so many cars for street use and not provide a warranty.
Happy, Happy, Joy Joy!
Now to find a way to come up with $ 150K. or wait til I can get the GT supercharger intake/intercooler to put in my R !!!
