    A solution or two for dealer mark ups/adm fees on new GT!!

    Perhaps. But on this forum….everyone is a major advocate of the free market until it comes to getting their hands on the new GT.:wink

    Another Price Spectulation Thread - for under $200K

    I agree. Lots of wishful thinking and rationalization regarding pricing on these threads. If the car is produced in the rumored number range, regardless of the MSRP it will sell for well above that….could easily be double that number. Based on some of what I've read about this car (granted much...

    2016 Ford GT only for Ford Fans and Collectors making pricing interesting

    Let me just throw this out there….for most people who are willing to spend 250-300k on a car, spending another 100-200k will not be a limiting factor in their decision making. What will affect their decision is: 1) Just how much do they love the car 2) Do they expect it to depreciate...

    Has anyone put down a deposit yet?

    This is such an exciting time. The anticipation of this event and the fact that they have kept it under wraps for so long is really unbelievable. I am very optimistic about the design of the new car. IMO they will go an entirely different direction and present something that will "wow" us all...

    Why Everyone Is Going Nuts Over A New Ford GT: An Explainer

    Since we are on this subject….I am hoping for a little clarification from people who know a good deal more about racing and Le Mans than myself (i.e pretty much everyone here). Unless Ford is planning on racing in the prototype class, would a possible victory in the slower classes still be...

    New Supercar is TwinTurbo ecoboost

    I just hope it looks really good. If it does, and performs well, two fewer cylinders wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. If it doesn't look all that great…I can't see myself getting too excited about it.

    New GT effect on Values

    IMO the reason people obsess about values at times has more to do with ego than the absolute monetary value of these cars….there is something nice about feeling like you "made the right call" and purchased one of very few cars that now exceed their sticker price when new in 2005-2006. This to me...

    The New Shelby GT350

    Dave- Is that an optical illusion or do you have really small hands?

    Ferrari being sold.."for being too American"

    Ferrari sold about 7,000 cars last year, accounting for about 12 percent of Fiat’s 2013 operating profit. The Fiat group sold about 4.4 million cars last year. That pretty much sums up the value of the spinoff company…..also it seems that only 10% of stock will be available the rest will be...

    Red GT @ Auto Gallery Calabasas

    Looks, of course are pretty subjective. IMO the 458 is one of the nicer looking recent ferraris. Having said that, it is definitely not as timeless as the GT. Values, of course, have less to do with the above than they do with production numbers and the next new model being available. This is...

    Red GT @ Auto Gallery Calabasas

    You crack me up Kayvan. Have you driven a 458? It's really not as bad as you think……yes very different driving experience compared to FGT, but a very enjoyable car to drive.
