"Paris Hilton naked wouldn't draw as much attention.."

That's only because everyone has already seen it. But an all-black GT -- that's a rare sight deserving a triple take! (sorry Paris...) :biggrin

Welcome and enjoy!

Welcome!! I'm in Ft. Laud. I've done all of my own wrenching up to this point. Black 907 highly recommends Sawgrass Ford for service...

Congrats and welcome!!!
The warrentee goes with the car, but the dealer can show the change in ownership. I assume that it would be helpful for "Roadside Assistance".
Find out if it has an extended warrentee. That has to be transfered and there is a $50 fee.

I was told my car has an extended warrantee and I paid to have it transfered. I will follow up.

Joe,

These are 2 recent discussions on the topic of extended warranties. In short, Ford did not agree to offer an extended warranty - many people have tried unsuccessfully to get one from Ford. However, there are 3rd party warranties offered. If you agree w/a 3rd party extended warranty, the advice has been to read everything & make sure you know exactly what it covers.

The Dealer just sent me the "Oasis Result" for my car. It shows the Extended Warrantee. See below:

He says it is no longer available. I bought the car from the former owner of a dealership. I was lucky!!

ARRIVED this morning!

Hello Everyone..
In approx 15 days my new (to me)2005 Solid Black(no stripes) GT will arrive in Delray Beach,Florida.:biggrin
I have been watching and learning from all of you that participate on this great forum for some time . I am looking forward to being an active member and developing friendships and good times. The opp to buy this GT actually fell into my lap unexpectedly.After talking with 40-50 people over the past two years in an effort to secure a GT without being abused too badly,a friend of a friend happened to mention his need to let his Black GT go..(1000 miles)
He is a true enthusiast and the car is impeccable..I feel very lucky.
So..here we go with the newbie questions.(pls indulge ). :thumbsup

Any South Florida Gt owners active on site ?(assuming YES)
Can anyone recommend a Ford dealer for service in South Florida area ?

Does Ford keep track of these cars as ownership changes,accidents occur etc?

For those that purchased new (used) Gt, does warranty simply transfer or do I need to notify Ford? I want to receive TSB's etc so a change can be important in the future.The car is under warranty thru 3/09.

Half shaft issue..any owners in S Florida have any experience with this matter? If so..what did you do to address it?
Thanks to all....
*******************
Well..Hog Haulers just delivered my GT.(by the way, great service by this transport team )..
All I can say is I don't know if I should drive her or date her (maybe both).
WOW...
I have owned many M series cars,NSX,porsches,amg'S ETC ETC..AS HAVE MOST OF YOU FELLOW OWNERS. This car is amazing. It is smooth and easy to drive (clutch / steering effortless) but yet commands respect and attention of it's driver.
I will get some pics up soon...I am overwhelmed ! Thanks for all the well wishes ..Got to go..only 8 more hours of sunlight to spend driving together.:wink

Sounds good.
Hog Haulers do good work!
Any chance that the driver was Chris?
He hauled a load of FGT's to Indy and back West.

You have the "GTgrin!" :thumbsup

:cheers

It really is just great looking at it. Since I've had my gal I put cable, relocated a 27" TV, added a 1,000 watt stereo in the garage..... stocked the fridge (yes Bony w/ Hieneken).... and weekends in the garage when you don't drive the gal have a new meaning! Enjoy Her! and Thank God you don't have to park her during the winter! Unlike other people in Ill.

Congratulations Stewart, and welcome to another South Florida GT owner!:party

I'm in Broward and service my '05 Red/White with Sawgrass Ford in Sunrise. They seem to know the GT well.

23 months and I'm still smiling every time I look/start/drive her:biggrin
