This car is a return by Ford to the strategy of the 60's. The homologation Cobras and GT40s were street-ified race cars.. They didn't enjoy much of a "comfortable grocery getter" reputation. The Ford GT was a street car that some "upped" to race. The new Ford GT is starting life as a race car and getting street things ADDED to it. It's designed to be best in its class. If that means the street car is a little untidy and uncomfortable, well just remember the Cobra and GT40.
