    Looking to purchase Ford GT Heritage.

    http://www.naplesautocollection.com/vehicle-details/2006-ford-gt-coupe-b5ee1558eb1345f8a04cb0295188ac83/ That car sold at auction for $220,000 last year. They initially had it priced at $329K, then $299,000. I think it's worth what it sold for at auction, IMHO. Someone at the time said it was...

    Looking to purchase Ford GT Heritage.

    It had the black brake calipers which are standard. No upgraded wheels or Macintosh stereo either.

    2016 GT350 at the track

    All "R" GT350 have the Michelin Sport Cup 2 tires. Not on the GT350. Supposedly you could wear out a set in one hard track day, I've heard. Also common on Porsches too.

    Looking to purchase Ford GT Heritage.

    The 1800 mile Heritage was purchased for $327,500 plus commission by a friend. It's heading for the Midwest. No other options other than the Heritage paint scheme. Prices were through the roof at the auction for anything with wheels. I can only imagine what BJ will be like. The economy is doing...

    Rally 11 Poster

    I just had my car in for an oil change and also had the struts replaced. Probably the cheapest part on the car. Two 5G7Z*63406A10**AA Lift assembly-gas @ $42.50 each. Labor charge to replace was $110 for a total of $195 before sales tax.

    Ordering dates

    I was hoping that you would get a very early build due to your "seniority". Guess you aren't driving your current ride enough<G>.

    Ron Pratte's P-51 Mustang for sale

    I was just looking for a Christmas present and went to www.controller.com and typed in P-51 and at the top of the list is Ron's "Red Dog" P-51 Mustang for sale. If it's the same quality as his cars I'm sure it's in the stratosphere as far as price goes. The FAA registry as of 2011 showed 204...

    2017 Eco Boost 10 Speed F150 delivery

    That ain't nothing. I ordered a 2017 GT350R on 6-15-16 and still am on "unscheduled material hold". Ford Performance can't tell me anything, the dealership says the order is supposedly "locked" in. Very frustrating.

    Good Price on a GT?

    That price is not out of line for the mileage it has on it. I would give a rough estimate that a 10,000 mile car would price around $250,000 right now. Maybe a 20,000 mile could be had for $225,000. These are my "guesstimates" from going to auctions and viewing auction results the last 5 years...

    Lutz on Musk

    Cash burn in 2015 was $2.2 billion and for the first half of 2016 it was $611 million. Large cap-ex for the new model and to cover costs of the new battery factory are a problem. Always over promises on production schedules and under delivers. Capital will definitely need to be raised again shortly.

    Lutz on Musk

    Tesla has become a "cult" stock amongst the believers. They are also in a cash burn mode. I don't see how combining Tesla with Solar City is a plus. Tesla is just trying to prop up Solar City at Tesla's expense. They will be needing to raise new capital again in the not too distant future...

    New F Car Sold Out

    I have seen a couple of different sources quoting different production numbers. One source said they were producing 209 units, with Ferrari retaining 9 units for shows and promotional activities. Another source states production of only 150 units.

    New GT Vanity Plates

    For you Louisiana boys I would expect "Budreau GT" would be a possibility.

    Ford GT oil change procedure

    I have used the search function to no avail. I'm trying to locate a very detailed post from back in 2005 from Amer Speed regarding the proper step by step, 21 step process to change the oil. I believe it came out of the service manual. Any help would be greatly appreciated. RickH
