Considering they're only really worried about selling enough to meet production requirements for LeMans...I do not think market share was their primary concern.
There is the potential, at some point, for a lower priced, V8 powered GT made more out of aluminum instead of carbon fiber, but that is all speculative.
People *must* understand this. They used a proven race engine (it's been in the Daytona series for a long while now) and selected it for power to weight ratio, to meet class requirements at LeMans (LMGTE) and endurance.
The last GT was meant to celebrate Fords centennial and to be snarky to Ferrari, but not to race. This GT was designed to race and win...while still being snarky to Ferrari.
