    I asked this over in car design but no one answered.

    Ford GT '05-'06 Found pic of four clay models probably taken around '03. I was wondering if the red short nose one was shown in a styling clinic where the opinion of those invited (they invite owner of similar market cars) was "If it doesn't have the shape of the original Ford GT, forget it."
    I think the short nose looked too Audi 8. But I can;t remember if the R8 was already on the market yet. Also were the other designers miffed when Ford publicity credited only Camilo Pardo with the design?

    You might ping GTJoey or DBK who have an institutional memory of some of the historical particulars of the car.
