hi new to the forum.i currently drive a diablo vt,i want american muscle with handeling performance of like lamborghini orferrari,so im looking into a ford gt.what should i pay for a 05 say with a few mles or a new 06?why are the white with blue stripes priced lower than other colors?how does the gt handle at speeds above 160 mph,never driven one, will drive one this comming week end.
thanks

The GT is a car that will hand a Diablo it's ass in a cardboard box. I took mine to 200 a couple of times last night, and it feels like most cars do at 100. My Lambo was very stable at high speeds, and my GT feels just about the same. White with blue just doesn't seem to be quite as popular. There really isn't a bad color on the car, so if you like white, you might save yourself a few bucks. You'll most likely pay mid 140's to mid 150's, but I've seen higher and lower. Just shop around.
 
Nothing wrong with with White/Blue. It is the classic color combo, and is the fastest color! :wink
People love mine when they see it in person. The blue stripes look awesome in the sunlight! :biggrin

I've owned three Vipers, and this car is NOTHING like it! You have found the car. It really has it all! I drove my car 500 miles or so this weekend, and I can't believe just how much I love it! With a pulley change and tune, it's the most amazing car I've ever driven!
 
when your replacing the pully how much more psi are you adding?what do you mean by a tune please.im really looking forward to my test drive this comming week.

Tune = changing Timing Air/Fuel and so on... basically updating the ECU to be a bit more agressive :thumbsup

Blue / White is like the "Bizarro world" GT. Fast is slow, good is bad, best is worst, etc. :wink
Honestly, if I were to buy a second GT, it would be solid black. I love the look of it in black, and that was my first choice. That would also be a better price since you would not pay the $4K for the stripes.
 
black would be my first choice as well.your profile states you live in sand cyn do you mean canyon country area?

Yes, it is part of Canyon country. It is on the other side of the freeway, where all the acre+ ranch homes are. I'm next to Robinson Ranch Golf Course.
 
hi mark were neighbors i live walking distance from you,i have the black diablo and yellow gallardo.you need to drive your gt than having it parked :biggrin
 
The GT is without question the most stable car I've ever driven at high speed. The car feels more solid at 200+ than my Z06 did at 130.
 
my lamborghini feels very stable at speeds above 160 even going over dips on freeways im really looking forward to owning one hopefully.
