Oooohhhhh kkkkkkk. Alrighty now. Freedom of speech. Thank you for your opinion.

A couple quick observations from my life: Never is a VERY long time, put in print ONLY what you want everyone to read, there is no I in Team!

And larry Most important: ALL of the Ford personnel we have met are without a doubt some of the finest people around.EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. OF. THEM. ,!!! So we are personally offended with your use of degrading terms. Perhaps there WAS a valid reason you were chosen to own more European cars??? Have a Great day!

With maybe a 1000 car production run worldwide, UK is going to be a tight market.
Sorry for your disappointment. But I wonder why you have waited almost 1.5 years after allocations were chosen to vent your spleen.
Cheers and have a happy life.

Guaranteed that the 720s will be quicker round the track.........but who cares? Your anger says it all - the GT is way more desirable than the 720!

I'm not angry I was definitely disappointed at
the shoddy application process for sure.
Only people getting angry are on the other side of the pond.
I'm allowed to ventilate my opinion on this forum without being bullied.
I had a lucky escape from purchasing an Impotent Adonis!

There will be secondary market sales of the NGT

The power of a Probate judge, Bankruptcy judge, Divorce Judge, Personal Injury Judge is no match for whatever agreement original owners signed...

That power may be wielded even before delivery at the current rate!

Nice estate...Cheers mate, keep up the good living !

Nice cars. It looks like from your GTs you would have been a very good prospect for getting in the next wave of allocations. I am certain those waiting for the next phase of allocations thank you for removing yourself from any possibility of being included on the list.

Larry,

I'm probably stating the obvious, but the NGT owners on this forum are probably not deeply concerned about comparative performance metrics. The NGT is sort of a one-off race car/road car program. It is an important part of Ford history and a continuation of a long history of Ford performance. I think they feel lucky to be a part of that history.

A while back, I wrote a brief essay on the conundrum of chasing the latest, greatest thing when it comes to exotics. It doesn't matter what car you buy, it seems that the next model year, there will be something that is lighter, faster, or more powerful.

So, what it eventually boils down to is what rings your bell. I think the owners of the NGT on here would consider their bells well and truly rung, regardless of what other cars out there may be .2 tenths of a second quicker.

Lots of cool people unfortunately didnt get an allocation
Car is very limited so sadly unavoidable.
Happens with Ferrari (good luck getting a new limited car), Porsche (good luck getting a new GT2rs or GT3), etc...

This goes on with most supercars. It's not a Ford thing.
I did not get an allocation either and am waiting for round two, three, four, etc...I may never get a new one at all, who knows
I hope all the people who are getting the car drive it around so we get to see it on the streets often. Not pictures but the real thing.
You can buy a 720S or an SV or whatever, they don't hit the nail on the head, do they ?

We can send a care package to assuage the hurt feelings.

Seriously, some really good people didn't get an allocation, but with whiners like this, there is no doubt Ford made the right call. I'm surprised that he isn't embarassed to act like this publicly. So much for a stiff upper lip.
