Head....meet crack...

On her way! Should be here in the morning. I don't think I have every been more excited about a car before. I am honored and blessed to be able to own just one of these, much less 3.

Enjoy that car my friend.....

I love many different types of cars. However, since becoming a Ford GT owner, I have been amazed at the number of you with multiple Ford GTs. I absolutely love my car and I certainly have a "itch" to one day be a multiple car owner, however, there are so many cars out there I would love to own and I think to spend that much money on the same two cars sounds crazy but I sort of understand. I have yet to see any person with 2 458's, 2 911's, 2 Diablos, etc

What the obsession with owing multiples? Is it the fact that you have owned or driven every supercar and none compare? Is it the collectability factor? Is it "just because you can"? Is it one stays pristine stock and the other gets modified? Is it because it's really the only American Supercar ever made?

Just curious as to why buy another FGT instead of buying another "supercar" or a few less expensive cars (Pantera, Viper, GT-R, ZR1, 997, 430, etc).

Even if any of you don't own multiples, why would you own 2 Ford GT's instead of a few "other cars"?

Thanks for everyone's time and opinions.

You just found someone with (2) Diablo Roadsters and a FGT

One answer: Push starter; flawless performance for 8yrs.

No Supercar in last 8ys, can really match that.

I must disagree with you on this one since I own a FGT and other supercars. Everytime I get in one of them I think "This is my favorite car" until I step into the next one. I do love my FGT though!!!!! It's my favorite car every time I am driving it

Enjoy

as a longtime member of this forum and finally an owner this May, I am happy to have finally acquired my dream car. Selling an Audi R8 plus adding $150k to get the Ford GT, it was well worth it. Although I don't drive it much, once the rainy season ends here in Florida I will be doing the car show scene this winter. I am a Porsche / BMW enthusiast and own several of each. My favorite car is the aircooled 911, and I have 2 aircooled (964 and 993) plus my newly acquired 2005 GT3 which the motorsport engine is based off of the aircooled 964 engine. I drive the 993/964 several times a week.

Wow. Z8, E30M3, 3.0 CSL. That's quite the trifecta.

We have a great group of owners in central Florida. If Xcentric would get off his butt and plan something, we could get together.

The Lake Mirror Classic is a first class event.

Unfortunately, it conflicts with Rally 9.

Do you want me to organize it for you while I'm in LV?
