April 7th, 2019 arrival date. I've been threatening to buy one for at least a year and finally pulled the trigger. I am so proud to be a GT Owner, it's a dream come true.

QSS
Congrats ! It is truly an epic moment!

I’ve been a continuous owner since Fall of 2005, but alas, no photos. I’ve said, since there are no photos of me, I must not really exist.

I'm not the original owner, but I did buy, arguably, one of the nicest GT's out there. Almost been one year of ownership and it's been nothing but awesome :) Thanks Ed!

Flew from DC to Chicago to pick it up in July 2012. 2nd owner. 3k miles. Shakedown drive was 900 miles home with a detour through Ohio's Hocking Hills, favorite roads of the Ann Arbor based magazines. 34k miles today.

The car is in good hands. It couldn't have found a better home. Thanks for all the updates Torqjnky!

10K Over. I have heard stories of them selling both ways. Some less than list price, and some over list price. Did you hear Jay claiming he paid way under list price? A guy up our way, (Syracuse, NY) told me he paid 75K over at 250K?? I am not sure I believe that. Who knows....

Anyway, I was not able to buy one when they were new, but its just great again that I was able to buy one and get my dream car in 2019!IMG_2209.jpg

I have the original sales documents for my blue car the guy who bought it paid well over 250K for it. it was one of the very early cars.

they did drop down to msrp towards the end of production and a year or two after production they started going back up I paid 20k over for my black car at the end of 08 the car was still under MSO sitting around at a dealership for over three years.

I have heard of a few people being able to buy car for less the MSRP but those must have been red cars :)

I'm Baack! The original joke was my daughter was eating pancakes in my new car and I think she was. She is now almost 16 years old.

Was loaded up at Lucas Ford last Saturday. They have a few snow storms and rain storms to get here. It'll probably show up next week, hopefully in one piece. Then it'll sit in the garage until July 5, that's usually when it stops raining in the PNW.
Hey Plycar. My car looks good with your truck. You should use it in a photo shoot for advertising and call it a wash on shipping..
