There are more than 10 million lines of code sitting behind the complex electronics underpinning the performance and features of the new Ford GT.
This is four million more, Ford engineers told us this week in Detroit, than in Boeing’s Dreamliner passenger jet.
Simply beautiful to behold, and retro, but not, the GT is still more than a year away from release - timed to the 50 year anniversary of the legendary Ford GT40’s success at Le Mans in 1966.
But neither the lines of code nor the 447kW (600hp) performance from the 3.5 litre EcoBoost V6 nestled within its seductive F1-inspired fuselage is at the nub of the story behind the GT.
