It's not for sale. It's the dealer principle's car reflected in the system before arrival. They put it up there...for this purpose. Will be gone tomorrow.

Its owned by Roger Penske. When the dealer received the inventory, it automatically posted to Autotrader. It will be removed ASAP. This car IS NOT FOR SALE!

I was able to view Roger's Porsche 918 when it arrived. The dealership advertised it for sale to drive traffic.

What's the deal with this? I thought this poster was legit, given some of the followers. Read the caption below the vid of DBK.

That guy is a dipshit. I've given him grief repeatedly. I don't understand the "aggregator" IG accounts, and like half of that dudes pictures are either my car, taken by me, or at some thing I threw together. Then he literally uses a video of me to claim he has a car for sale that doesn't exist. Lame.

Plus, I don't know if you ever noticed, but for like 2 years he's had a Facebook page where he solicits you to send him your info to "learn how you can drive the 2017 Ford GT."

Total spoof. I recently learned he blocked me on IG and I've never even heard of the guy nor have I ever had any contact with him.

This moron contacted me and offered me 1.3 million dollar for my NFGT allocation. I told him to p*ss off, unfollower and blocked him on IG

FGT for sale ad

The Czech Republic guy is indicating a "real" price this time. No indication of delivery window.

https://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/...opeId=C&sortOption.sortBy=searchNetGrossPrice

Quite interesting deal, not so much premium over european base price of 530.000EUR, and open to negotiate....

How will Ford react on this early intention for sale? :frown

It's not legit. There are so many dealers offering slots for fake cars, most of them are in Europe. I get contacted weekly by people usually in Switzerland, presumably shopping for something they can ship to the mid-east. It's easy. "I have a slot for a car, this is the price." Find a guy willing to pay that price. Wander around looking for someone to accept below that amount and collect the spread.

Dumb way to make a living.
