I'd like to buy an 05 or 06 blue with white stripes, with over 7,000 miles (so the price will be down a litte). I live in Cincinnati.

Thanks !!

I looked for over 8 months and a friend for over 10 months before we found our GTs. You must do your homework and be ready to act fast or the brokers and dealers will snap it up. I posted a PPI checklist you can search for on this website but it is not a substitute for a good PPI by a GT tech. There are a handful of reputable GT dealers you can buy from. Shelby at Elite Auto has a 2005 Blue w/White stripes and 6400 miles. Good luck with your search and post a picture when you find your GT.

Indeed, patience is a virtue. I waited for a private sale. It took almost a year and I didn't get a PPI because my seller had a reputation beyond question.

Good luck with the purchase of the most awesome car ever built in the US.

Agree with Ron no chance of "stealing one" these days. I looked for about a year and found what I wanted but that was 3 years ago when prices were in a little lull.
Good luck and great color choice.

It's always been a "sellers" market for the FGT. Many of us as original owners waited and when the FGT first came out they were selling for $300K+ for the first few months. It took a year to be able to find/ buy one at MSRP :wink, summary is - if you want one just do it.............

one of the original forum members aka centerpunch, tracked prices and published on the web for a while allowing all of us to bask in the pride of ownership. While CP and the site is gone, here is some of the data he collected.

Unwinding the history and the new listing being from the same person I guess the first auction didn't close. Now it has a buy it now for $295K...

If you unwind them they look like competing automatic bids...

The claim of "One of last ones built!" is hardly accurate, being VIN 1374 when 2011 or so were built in 2006.

It was a "no reserve" auction! That "sold". Yet relisted the next day. Fishy.

Many eBay motors sales fall through, because they are not binding.
