Ford GT using torsion bars

Just reading Motortrend online and I see the new Ford GT ditched the coil overs and went to a racing style torsion bar/pushrod system. I know there is a lot of debate on here about torsion bars and coil overs, curious what people think about it. I find it interesting Ford builds their super car with this system. According to Ford the subrames are aluminum and encapsulated in carbon fiber. How times are advancing.
