congrats and welcome,

I felt like I overpaid for my car at the time of purchase( I wanted a black no stripe car, and for a minute there it seemed impossible to find one so i had to pay what I thought was a 20K premium over other colors) only to drive it 10K miles and have it further depreciate, I can tell you not only has the price on my car bounced back but its actually worth more than I paid for it with less than 700 miles on her, I wouldn't sweat the price, enjoy the car it will definitely be worth the premium.

Soroush your real deal was your blue/wht car. I was tempted to buy that one but I already own that color. That was a steal!

I never get tired of seeing a Ford GT in any color. Aren't our little girls just gorgeous?

Here's a few - it took me about a year to build back on '09, but I sold that house last June and am starting to build my new garage in April...

I miss this place - but my new one is quite a bit larger now...

Basement - I should have blown the staircase away and closed up the entrance while I was doing the garage, but chose not to. I could have had more cars on the ground...but the house is sold and now I could care less. LOL

Tomy, is your trickle charger sitting on the shoeshine stand you used as a kid?

Ha, no just a stool I use for cleaning tires and wheels. I was too busy cleaning the mechanics restroom in the service department and had no time to shine shoes. It was never clean enough for the boss, Mr Hamon. My well rounded education learning the Automobile business.

Hey Justin. Good to see you here and in the hunt for a GT:)
And probably no more 6 speed for me except selling off the rest of my TT parts. I can only waste time on so many forums:)

What's your current garage lineup these days? Last I remember is obviously the TT but also a black 430 (or was it a 458??).
