You are a very inspiring guy and such a deserving NFGT owner Jason, very very happy for you. The green looks epic too.

Not that I know of. There were press reports that 6 people had applied to buy one, but that may have just been internet trash. I am the only one that I know of to submit an application.

Very happy you guys enjoyed Paddy's feature. He certainly captures the magic of this car, even in fading daylight. Paddy first became known to me through his membership of a motoring enthusiast forum I am involved in running in Ireland, where he would post his photography and writings. It became...

I hope you guys enjoy Paddy McGrath's photography, and laid back relaxed writing style in this account of his encounter with Dave's Ford NGT, along with several others. Paddy has followed his passion for car culture and photography to become I think one of the best automotive photographers...

Cant wait to watch that Dave, both envious and happy for you.

Yup, thats me, taking part in the 2010 Ireland Cannonball Run

I just received the letter...of rejection!! Given there were 4000 05/06 cars made and only one officially supplied to my country I guess my chances were miniscule even as an 06 GT owner, but to say I am gutted is an understatement. In spite of trying to remain realistic over the last few months...

Only catching up on this now, maybe I should rethink my previously held opinion, Ferrari teams learning the post race dance from their F1 comrades!! Will not take away from the achievement of Ford though. Le Mans is notorious for this kind of post race rubbish.

I agree, it would have been a bit sour for the Risi Team Ferrari to be denied their place due to a regulation that has been imposed in a very inconsistent fashion over the last few seasons. Ford can hold their head high in achieving such a great result in such a clean manner, especially after...

Ferrari were given second position confirmed about 1 hour after the finish.

You guys have it so good ...honestly you have no idea of auto taxes in the USofA :-) Here in my country, which manages to portray itself as a friendly open liberal and fair place to live, I will be well and truly shafted on this GT if it happens for me, at a conservative guess taxes will exceed...

I am not worried in the sense that the cost is more than i expected, because I expected a price in the area of Aventador money, just at this late stage, and with the cars development complete, that Ford should at least be able to quote a price, just as all other makers have done at launch time...

Thanks for that !!

While the sale/allocation process is not new in itself, (as similar concepts are used by Ferrari and Porsche for example), it is new for Ford, and it would appear quite a lot of thought has gone into trying to get the cars bought by enthusiasts and drivers. However, I have never come across a...

Extremely lucky just to get one...no matter early or late !!

I am preparing for the build up...but definitely very conscious of the very real possibility of a let down !!

Lol..that figures Dave,,then it definitely went well for Rob..however I was not directing anything at Rob ( Apologies Rob if it seemed that way ) just making the point that in terms of allocation numbers relative to market size for Ford, very very few cars were supplied! With a production run...

It is similar, in that those interested expressed their interest, but through any and every avenue possible. There was no process outlined, it was a case of lobbying your Ford dealer, or/and Ford Motor Co. and hoping for the best. I contacted Ford directly once the announcement was made they...

Raj Nair..has just said at Geneva, quote..."pricewise, it will be facing off against cars like the Aventador"
