2008 Ford GT Avro 720 Mirage specifications, photo, price

The 2008 Avro 720 Mirage is no ordinary car and this thing has such an amazing look and feel to it that it could make me fall over. The Avro sort of resembles the Ford GT although this is a lot rarer of a car and has a lot better specs then the Ford GT. The Avro 720 Mirage will be limited to only a total of ten cars meaning that if you want to.

Atomic orange isn't subtle, but the transformation of the slightly heavy-handed Ford GT into the gorgeous Avro 720 Mirage is all in the detail. The wheels and external brightwork are now matt.

The Avro 720's windscreen was of a similar style to that used on the Convair F-102 and F-106 (amongst others), consisting of two flat triangular panels forming a sharp ridge along their centreline. I do not know if the 720 had a vision splitter plate between this centreline and the cockpit coaming above the instrument panel like these other.

The running gear on the Avro 720 Mirage has been appropriately upgraded to match the boost in power. The front and rear track is 5mm wider than the standard car. The front brakes use AP Racing 6-pot front callipers with Stillen drilled and slotted rotors - and similar rotors are used also at the rear.

#1 I'm new to this great site and this is my first post. Does anyone have any pictures or profiles of the Avro 720 mixed-power interceptor? (Not the Avro 730 bomber). I have only seen photos of the mock-up, sometimes incorrectly described as the first prototype. Thanks Antonio Moderator Staff member Senior Member Joined 22 January 2006 Messages
