We are lucky owning these beautiful piece of arts and I would love to know which famous people also has the same good taste as we do!?!?
People look at me when I drive my GT like if a was some kind of a Rock Star!
To be honest I do feel like a Rock Star behind the wheel because they are a very RARE sight here.

So to my question, which famous people also owns or at least have had a GT.

I have found out that these have/had GTs.

*Jay Leno ( Red/White )
*Horacio Pagani ( Heritage )
*Felix Baumgartner ( Red/White )
*Jenson Button ( White/Blue )
*Jeremy Clarkson ( Blue/white )
*Kazunori Yamauchi ( Tungsten )
 
 
Clarkson no longer owns his.

I took mine out yesterday and had three people just stop to take pictures of it.
 
Chris "Ludacris" Bridges.
John Mayer (although he may have sold his).
Phil Mickelson (although his may be in pieces?)
FH Pinault (he's not the celeb, but he's Salma Hayak's hubby - LOL)

Oh, and each of us of course. :wink
 
*Bill Ford
 
Jesse James (now wrecked)
 
I could name some NASCAR who have had theirs since new, but it might violate the attorney client privilege.
 
RALPHIE!

And dear to all GT owners : Mr. Mark McGowan.
 
I passed a Ferrari yesterday and looked in my rear view mirror to see his brake lights and his head turn. We win...we are famous...
 
My wife and kids think I'm a famous VIP...does that count?
 
John Hendricks, founder of the Discovery channel and owner of the cars in the Gateway Auto Museum in CO, has a red GT.
 
Justin Verlander had his 458 parked outside a local steakhouse last night. But, alas, no Kate Upton. He was with his parents. Very nice folks, btw .
 
My wife and kids think I'm a famous VIP...does that count?

Of course it counts :biggrin :biggrin :biggrin
 
Jay Leno
George Foreman
 
Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, Nicholas Cage, Kid Rock had...don't know if any still have.
 
I had the good fortune of driving some of the "stars GTs". Long before they got them, they were ran around the proving grounds. Jay Leno's, Kid Rock's, Sammy Hagar's, as well as others. Then there was the "event" I had while driving Bill Ford's GT (#0001) around MPG. Also, Willie G Davidson's. Most people know of the "one of one" Sonic Blue car, but Willie G's was a "one of one". Silver w/ black stripes, but with orange edge stripes lining the black top stripes. (Harley colors). Had it not been for my heroes, :bow Mark M :bow, and Chris White I would have never gotten the once in a life time chance like that.
 
Button sold his
 
Mark McGowan owns one!
He's a car star to me!
 
Then of course, there's this guy;

The most famous Carroll Shelby person in my mind anyway.
