So are you saying it really didnt sell at 161k? "Schill bidding" occurs to get the price up, but even at that price it was a good deal, so unless the didnt really sell (because it was Schill bid higher then anyone wanted it for) then I think it was a good deal, and congrats to the guy who got...

Prices dipping 4 grand under msrp on the tungsten.. I like it !! Now find me another one, since I missed this one.. :frown

How about a phone number for the dealership so I can call and seriously talk numbers with them. No need for a middle man. Thanks. Jon

My Bad, didn'd read the sticky :biggrin Now I know. Good Luck with the sale efurlong.

Or he could be asking what the effective compression ratio would be, relative to an NA motor with the same cylinder pressure. In other words, what would a NA engine's compression ratio be to have a cylinder pressue= The amount of cylinder pressure a ford GT has at 12 psi. Jon

Kick down some info. Fred... geeze.. already forgetting your Viper friends... :) I'd settle for a blue, if it was a good "need to sell" price. Also, from the post above, I highly doubt that ford loses money on the build and sale of these cars, thats some urban legand. There is plenty of...

Don't bother with a Viper or a Z06, if you are at all serious about buying the Ford GT. Viper Guys and Z06 guys aspire to own a Ford GT, so you would be starting at the bottom of the pile if you bought one of the other cars. I have bought 2 brand new vipers in the last 3 years, I am now...

just shorten the shaft... !! I did a post on viper club, im sure a similar process would work. I had a b&m ripper shifter in my viper, sold it and found the shorter shaft did everything just as well as the b&m if not better...

Kirk, valid point. At first I thought it might be a bit much to have banned the guy, because we get a lot of this crap at ViperClub, and the members usually do a good job of making the person not want to come back. But I admire what the Admin is doing, but keep in mind, this shouldnt be a...

I wouldnt say for every car. On completely OEM stock tires I was running 2:16 and 2:17's at VIR, which is better then what most weekend warriors run on R compounds. But as I stated in a different thread, I believe the handling, braking and cornering of the GT is handicaped by its tire...

lol, dont have to ask my pops, because I already know that Nitrogen does dissipate less quickly, another one of its advantages (because again its not trying to attack the rubber and get the hell out of the tire), but again, not very significant for the street car driver, but to each his own...

Understood, thanks for the pm and no sweat. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Jon

wow, I actually impressed myself with saying much of what the "internet gospil" said, in what I believe was normal talk... anyways, if we were racing, I just won :biggrin j/k Jon

Nitrogen is still lighter then air, Oxygen's molecule is 32, Nitrogens molecule is 28, and what we know as "air" is 29 (an everage of oxegen and nitrogen in the air). So your statement about oxygen balloons flying is way off, you were also way off on oxygen exploding, or even nitrogen ...

PCM, I shudder to ask this question, because I know ultimately if you answer yes, its going to be my own demise. :biggrin But I see you live in Chicago also? Where did you get your 06 GT?(curious if around here) And most importantly (and im 1/2 hoping you say no), would it be possible to...

Thats my thought as well. Hey you damn Viper Yankees !! I'm one too :D I've bought 2 new vipers in the last 3 years, and was born in raised in Mass (Agawam). Yippy to the Yankee Viper, GT Lovers :banana :willy :rofl

I'm pretty sure nitrogen is lighter then what we call "air" And last I checked when gasses got hotter, they didnt get heavier, they just got "pissed off" meaning they are more aggitated and move around, requiring them more space for movement (aka increased pressure) but not increased weight...

Enzo btr, you write for one of the car rags? You wrote the piece on how the game hold up to real world? Kinda cool. Thought all you rag writers were always bitching about how you couldnt actually afford the super cars you got to test drive. Anyways, the real reason for my post is that being...

FORD, Qaulity is Job 1.... $hit, I wonder what is Job 2 ?? I'm afraid to ask. Jon

I dont think its photoshopped, I think he really did make the brackets, but probably so the car could be rolled around only. Just because of how long its going to be without shocks, me may have wanted it to still be moveable. But I definitely wouldnt even drive it around the garage like that...
