Which Half Do I Own?

Well as of 1:00 pm today I paid 1/2 of the MSRP on my New 2017 Ford GT at the delivering Dealership. I'm trying to figure which half I own? Am I the first to pay, as my 50% deposit was due tomorrow 1/13/17? Within two weeks the person who purchased my 2006 Ford GT will finish paying the Dealership For the 06 GT minus his healthy deposit he made today. Will that mean then that I own the whole 2017 GT yet to be built? Lots of questions in my mind that are keeping me from sleeping these nights because of all this excitement. After arriving home this afternoon from my car dealing I noticed my wife Sue in the closet looking at the only two outfits she has left in her closet as i've sold about everything in there. This morning I found her in the garage painting her Fitbit gold to look like her Rolex that I sold last week. She's quite worried the GT Forum wife's are going to will make fun of her only two outfits at the next Rally. Oh Well, everyone needs a little laugh each day so I'll help you. ha ha. I notified my Concierge this afternoon that she's under the GUN to get that white GT built quick as my Man Cave Building is looking pretty empty after today. Life goes on and is fun these days. Sue's going to kill me for posting this but it's all in fun and she knows me pretty well after 37 years. Enjoy my friends remember We Are Blessed!

Is the new Continental gone already? More of a rental than a lease?

I think it's cool to imagine your GT ownership morphing from 2006 to 2017 in some alternate universe (or just at Multimatic).

Frank, I couldn't liquidate the new Continental as it was a Christmas present to Sue and I have no title to it, it belongs to Lincoln Financial. I can't picture Sue driving a used Pinto. ha ha. Not going down that road. Every day gets even better being an ambassador for Ford and the GT. My CPA ask me if I get a check from Ford for my upbeat Ford attitude?

Am I the first to pay as my 50% deposit was due tomorrow 1/13/17?

I sent my deposit to Santa Margarita Ford a week ago Tomy. Can't wait to see it in my garage and if you get yours first I might just fly out to see yours in your garage. I'm so happy for you buddy.

Tomy, two outfits is about all that Sue will be able to get into the trunk!

FYI for everyone in or around Houston, Mr Hamon has kindly agreed to bring his new machine to a special Cars and Coffee that will feature American Supercars. So, if you've got an 05/06, a Saleen, Vector, Mosler, or anything that fits the "American Supercar" description, watch this space, will be firming up details when Tomy's car has arrived and he is back down to earth!
