Want to buy the 2017 Ford GT supercar? You'll have to be vetted first.

Ford's all-new supercar, the 2017 GT, will go on sale later this year. However, it won't be like a Focus — you won't be able to just turn up to the dealer and hope to drive away in one. It's going to be a bit more involved than that.

Before Ford will let you (yes, let you) buy one of the 250 600-horsepower supercars it aims to build by the end of 2016, you'll have to first apply online. Then you'll be scrutinized by a vetting process. Ford intends to ask things like which Fords you've owned before, how much you'll want to drive the GT as well as measure your social media engagement.
