Has anyone had to put their stock GT through a noise test (for instance to participate in a track day)? I'm interested in what the db is at approximately 5,500-6,500 rpm I've done a search on the site but couldn't find a relevant thread. TIA

Well, it is a MINI Viper! :biggrin Sorry, couldn't resist! I've picked this up as a run-around until my new daily driver, Range Rover, arrives in October. I can't get over how much fun the supercharged Cooper S is on tight, twisty, roads! :thumbsup Wanted to share ...

Guys, Does anyone know of a NEW Midnight Blue GT with stripes, wheels and red calipers at a dealer? At this stage, I'm looking for new - not one that has been driven with dealer plates! My UK agent will be in the USA over the next 4-days and is willing to visit any dealership if I (he) can...

Any chance of a 'normal' smilie... just a plain, nice, no hidden agenda, smile? The rest are all good but when you just want to say: thanks, or show that you don't have any sarcasm in a comment, a plain smilie would be nice. For instance: -

I've been watching these go on auction via eBay and they are selling for silly money! Ford GT Dealer Hardcover Book My UK dealer tells me he paid $100.00 US for his but lately they seem to be selling for $180.00+ :eek Does anyone have one? Did you pay for it or did the dealer give it to...

Goodwood's Festival of Speed took place on the 7th, 8th and 9th of July this year and I attended today. By fluke and luck, I stumbled across Dan Gurney in a Ford original promotions car, made up to look like the winning car 2 from LeMans 1966. As I was taking pictures of the car, one of the...

My dealer has found me a car; however, the downside is that while it isn't built (build date is the last week of July) they are unable to change the specification. They say this is because the chassis/Vin number has been assigned. Does anyone know if this is true - is it written in stone? Or...

Okay guys, just how much of a handful is the GT to drive? With no traction control and 550bhp, my guess would be that it's best to leave it in the garage on a wet day (which is fine); however, in dry, is it pretty well mannered? Do you have to push it to bite you, or is prone to slap you...

The wife is probably about to throw me out of the house :frown Neilda is going to block my phone and cell numbers :ack Even my 3-year old daughter is getting sick of me showing her pictures of the GT in different colours and saying, "which one? which one?!?" :willy Just when I think I...

I have found the first obstacle to Ford GT ownership for me.... can't fit in it! :frown I thought the salesperson was going to scalp me when he closed the door :ack I'm 6 foot 3 inches tall and weigh about 220lbs (15.5 stone) and I always seem to have a problem with sports cars due to...

A recent story I wrote about my 'fun' with my E60 M5 in Germany... hope you enjoy it :thumbsup ..how to start this? On Tuesday, I drove to Hamburg for a meeting - it seemed a good idea at the time as I'd get a chance to drive the M5 on the Autobahn and in fairness, that part was fun (the...

Hi Guys! I'm a new member of the forum and while I have lived in Canada for over 20-years, am not back living in the UK. At the moment, I'm considering buying a Ford GT and am unsure whether to import a car myself or buy one via a company in the UK (and let them make a profit but handle the...
