    Which is a place 99% of Ferraris never go.....so why not buy a better road car?

    Ford GT-esque Vehicles recommendation

    I was not a fan of the regular 458 driving experience as the lack of torque was very disappointing (the anti-FGT) and I’ve heard the Speciale has the same anemic torque figures

    Ford GT-esque Vehicles recommendation

    One sold over the weekend for like $1.6M plus fees…..which I thought was about $1M less than I remember. I would much rather have that than a F40 at half the price. Still, the thought of buying a CGT would be such a holy grail car. If I sell both cars and clean out my 401k account I can just...

    Ford GT-esque Vehicles recommendation

    What pressure did you take it down to? I generally put in 35 psi because it starts looking like a flat tire below that (or a Jeep Wrangler rock crawling). Weird someone would say they (FGT, GT) they have a similar engine configuration….they couldn’t be much more dissimilar. Well the CGT is...

    Ford GT-esque Vehicles recommendation

    You can see I own a Diablo Roadster....I would sell the FGT before I part with it. Has everything you could want, convertible with a roaring V-12 inches from your head, gated manual transmission, solid rarity (less than 500 total units), insane road presence the FGT doesn't match. Has cachet...

    Side mirror housing (Passenger side)

    You couldn’t repair it? Reach out to Dan in Mi, Shelby, or the guy Ernie who rebuilds a lot of cars….think he is in Conn Or maybe Rich Brooks

    Takata Airbag Notice - 2024

    Good notice for new owners, and even I dove into my paperwork to confirm the inflators had been changed (2018). Also a good reminder for the diff bolt change out for new owners

    Getting a PPF tmr. What cautions should Technician take?

    I have been told this as recently as May 2023. The installer advised me not to, nobody is happy with the results after a year or two.

    Determining Agree Value on Higher Mileage '05 FGT

    Will they accept a 3rd party appraisal? If not, I would change companies. You are correct, rebuilt salvages are pretty close to $300k these days. One sold on BAT for $259k, and would have been higher had the owner represented it better (some people aren’t good sellers).

    Mine is from Torrie McPhail, he advertises here….great product and service.

    WTB 2006 Ford GT Tungsten

    That opinion, while many might share it, is contrary to the collectible market for all brands (except extreme low production cars). I personally think mileage will always be relevant to pricing in this case because of the number produced and the number of extreme low mile cars out...

    New 05 FGT owner. Any ideas on how to back it in to a two car garage

    Well, backup camera with new head unit would be my first suggestion....my car has that.

    New Coilover Option

    While I have no dog in this fight….I have Motons on mine (and no idea where they are manufactured….LOL), I don’t mind having options. With the way OEM parts are disappearing, hell give me some headlights made by Oompa Loompas and I would be just fine.

    Gauges are going out - looking for recomendations

    Rob, I know where you stole that picture from…I’ll send you an invoice, LOL I’m also a fan of the Speedhut solution (even though I bought the car with them already installed). I like that they are dependable, you can choose the face color you want, and you get shift lights which are fun...
