2006 Tungsten GT: SOLD

Gentleman – I am selling my gal. Fear not - the only reason is because I have two ! To be honest, I love the GTs so much, if I could, I’d have three. It was a tough decision, but I decided to keep my Black no stripe car. They both are beautiful.

Description:

2006 Tungsten Ford GT for sale. Car is a late 2006 (VIN # > 1400) with remaining factory warranty until 10/2009. Currently has approximately 4600 very careful miles on her. I am essentially the original owner as I purchased the car in June 2007 with only 100 miles on it. I have been the only driver so she has always been babied by me and very carefully broken in. The car has never been tracked, raced, or abused in any way. There have been no burn outs, drifting or other crazy stuff. Car has never been driven faster than 100 mph either. There have been no accidents, paint, body work or stories of any sort. The exterior is clean without any scratches or stone chips or blemishes. Interior looks new and still has that new car smell. Rims have no road rash or blemishes. Car is regularly detailed and waxed, and just underwent a 2 day $300 detail for the future owner.

I have had her meticulously maintained ONLY by Forum sponsors (see below).

The GT guys inspected the car in October 2008. Less than 600 miles have been driven since.

I have the original window sticker, sales tags, books, both keys and all factory goodies (cover, charger, etc…). Also have custom carpeted GT floor mats, and the great custom key fob that Shadowman et al helped develop.

Factory Options:
Painted top and side stripes
McIntosh stereo
Gray painted brake calipers

Modifications (all done by Forum sponsors: Tony G at HP Performance or GT Guys):
Ford racing short throw shifter
Ford transaxle cooler
Accufab half shaft bolts
Upgraded Pulley and Tune with Mafia – dyno’d at approx 600 HP in hot Florida summer
Oil changed less than 1000 miles ago by GT guys
New fuel filler neck installed by GT guys in 10.08
New transaxle installed secondary to defect 12.08 – Ford warranty until 12.09
New Stillen clutch installed 12.08

I am happy to discuss with serious buyers. The car is available for the most discerning inspection.

SOLD


Pictures will be posted shortly (see below)

Darn; up until I saw the post I was holding out and hoping that your sweetie would become the new driver of this gal; I remember when she first arrived with you and within days you did the "Shadowman" subwoofer relocation during which time your sweetie was still not certain about the gal. Then I remember you sharing that once she was in her how she too quickly became very fond of her.

Having said this I know that a black no stripe gal was your dream and I am happy that you found such a gal.

Here is what I can share to anyone considering this gal; I have worked with her owner from day one making sure that she is always in the best of health. Recently after she was given a PPI by The GT Guys during which a couple minor issues were noted after which her owner immediately contacted me wanting to properly tend to these issues. With the support of TonY G at HP Performance and myself from afar she was given a clean bill of health.

The last item that was tended to was a complete professional detail and a new OEM battery so that she will be as new when received by her new owner.

Takes care

Aaaghhh!

Mitchell -

About a month too late for me! I would have jumped on it! Tungsten is my favorite. Just used that money for an F-car! Rats! :frown

Gordon,
Sorry you missed her. A lovely car the Tungsten gal is. I'm sure you're not suffering too greatly though with an F-car. Which model ? Enjoy in good health. Hope to see you soon.

Car is in perfect condition. Will likely put on ebay this week and see what happens. Would rather see her go to a forum member. Happy to discuss car and a fair price.

I just saw the car on Saturday, and it is indeed pristine. Good luck with the sale, Mitch!

beautiful car, she deserves a good home. it should be like an adoption where the possible buyers need a background check before they can continue with the purchase.

Mitchell I talked to a few friends about the show next week in Amelia Island. I am going to try to make it up there and will call you the day before.



Did the gentleman who gave you a deposit complete the transaction with you or does he still have some more time?

Deposit on my lovely Tungsten gal was taken. Transaction should be completed within the week, assuming all goes as planned. The pending purchaser is a very nice fellow and quite the car guy. I'm sure he'll be active on this board.

She is now safe and sound in her new home.

I have to give a giant THANK YOU to Mitchell for an exceptional transaction!

I have bought and sold a number cars over the years, and this was definitely the best experience I've ever had.

Mitchell went well above and beyond to make the purchase so smooth and to be sure that we had everything needed to enjoy the GT from day one.

I believe if he could have pre-registered it with the state of Kansas for me, he actually would have already had the new plates on it when we picked it up.:biggrin

Jeff - You are a true gentleman and an asset to the hobby. I only hope the Gray Ghost (I love the name you chose) brings you and Gina the same happiness she brought me. She awaits your maiden voyage.
