First Drive: 2012 Iconic AC Roadster

With the possible exception of the Aston Martin One-77, we can’t recall the last time we saw a production-intent car with metalwork this impressive. It might have been the Ford GT40 – and we’re not talking about the 2005-2006 Blue Oval supercar, we’re thinking of the even better looking 2002 ‘GT40 Concept’ that inspired the production model. That car kept us up at night. There’s a reason for this comingling of feelings, of course – the folks behind the Iconic AC Roadster were also responsible for a fair bit of work on Ford’s Camilo Pardo-designed GT40 showcar, along with 2005′s Shelby GR-1 coupe concept.
