Gotta love the Italians!!!!!!




http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gran_Turismo

or as previously linked:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_tourer

Gran Turismo is Italian for Grand Touring or "Grand Tourisme." in reference to the Grand Tour. The GT naming tradition comes from Italy, eg. Alfa Romeo and Ferrari named often their cars as Gran Turismo. 1951 Lancia Aurelia B20 GT was also one of the first cars to have such name. The GT term has many variations like GTI, meaning Gran Turismo Iniezione (Grand Touring Injection), first used on 1961 Maserati 3500 GTI. The Volkswagen Golf GTI (1975) was first mass produced car to have such name. Other variations of GT are GTE or GT/E (Einspritzung, a German word for injection) used in Germany, GTO (Gran Turismo Omologato) meaning homolagated car for racing (used by Ferrari and Pontiac), GTA (Gran Turismo Alleggerita) meaning lightened GT car, GTAm (modified lightened car) and GTV (Gran Turismo Veloce) meaning a fast GT car.

no
GT originally comes from italian racing someone can better take the spelling, but it was something like gran turismo olmoligation meaning parts from race cars were used in your car, thats where gto came from, and then gt is essentially a shortening/marketing thing off of that

Well ... I can say that original Mustangs were either 6's or 8's .... The GT was an optional package that included a V8 ...

Ford did offer this option up until the S197 .... LX could be had in a V6 or V8 ... GT was strictly a V8 ....
um, it was offered until 1994, not 2005.

there is no such thing as a 94-04 LX Mustang.

Buy a V6 and slap some GT badges on it.
Its cheaper and you have a GT in the end.
