Like alot of new potential GT buyers I have been lurking around your site to gather info. Like other potential buyers I wanted to drive a GT to see if it's as good as the say. We'll I want to share the greatest car guy experience a guy could have. I saw an add in one of the car mags from a company called World Class Driving. You can check it out at www.wcdriving .com . At first this sounded like a scam because it was just to good to be true. On Sat. May 13th in Miami I got to drive the following cars :Aston Martin DB9, Bently GT , 06 Corvette Z06 , Ford GT , Ferrari F 430 And the Lamborghini Gallardo. It was well worth the price and then some.
Most of the people that attended could never afford to have one of these cars. For me I've been kicking the tires of the Gallardo and seriously looking at the GT. As some of you have found most of the Ford dealers won't even let you sit in one, I got to drive the GT solo and was able to push it somewhat. This was a great way to drive the best of the best and compare cars back to back. This is great way to compare the cars because the experience is fresh in your mind not days or weeks later if you tried to do this through dealers. The only way it could have been better was if they had a Viper SRT 10 Coupe. That's another car that's on my list. While I could write volumes on the day and each car I can Honestly say the Ford GT is the "One!!" The Z06 is no slouch and if had a more dramatic visual effect it would be a tough choice. The ride of the GT is not as harh as the Z06. I'm not Biased but the two American Iron V8 hot rods were a blast to drive. Driving the Ferrari F430 was a great bonus experience for me. The high pitched 8 Cyld sounds neat but I prefer the knarly V8 of the GT or the Z06 , the paddle shifters worked fine but they do not make you feel as connected as you do shifting the manual 6 spd of the Ford GT or the Z06.
Anyway you guys have a great site here. I'm in Ft. Laud. FL and i know there is a good group of GT owners in the Miami / Broward area. I hope to be joining you as an owner later in the year. If you own a GT over any of the cars listed above you made the right choice !!! :thumbsup
