Nice cars, but I think the repro's of the classic version look just as good. The only thing I dislike on the new ones is the huge silver painted plastic areas on the interior, like along the center console. That stuff scratches up easily and looks kind of cheap for a $150K car.

very cool cars, but taller guys don't like the upper door section that goes into the roof, or at least learn to avoid it when getting in and out of the car....................... :goofy:

Never driven one but have seen a few and like them alot, but for the money I would just get a new ZR1 :yes: .

SW,
I find it interesting that the Ford GT is the one car that my wife REALLY likes.
(For example..She thinks that 70 Chevelles are ugly...wtf!)
She does not get involved in my passion for cars.
Nor does she get excited when I show her a car that I am interested in
However last year we had the opportunity to view a private collection of cars and she was drawn to the Ford GT. It was red with white stripes.
She commented that "Now I could see myself driving this car".
Perhaps I should consider buying "her" one for her birthday:unibrow:
Time to get to work,work,work........

SW,

It's a beautiful car and is one of my favorites. The Ford GT is a timeless car and will always look good as the years pass by. A much more special car than any Gallardo/360/430 and would be a nice addition to your garage.

After I give up my life in NYC as an investment banker for the next decade or so, the first thing I am going to go out and splurge on is one of these. Preferably the GTX1. I have always been a 360/435 fan, but in the supercar world the GT is where its at for me.



So go for it, and hold on to it for a while, I will get there eventually haha! Then take it off your hands. :thumbsup:

Looking for a black one I would guess? Usual style right?

Good Luck!

Tim

SW,
Be sure and keep us posted.
I am interested in hearing your opinions given that you have a broad experience with exotic automobiles.:D

A childhood friend of mine has the GT, a 355 Spyder and a Gallardo (spelling?) For what it's worth I've found the GT the funnest to drive. By the way, I love the cars in your avatar.

One of my dad's friends has one that he drives a few times a week. He claims that it's the best car he has ever purchased; due to it's driveability, performance, good looks, and all around character. He owns a lot of cars, so I personally give his opinion a lot of credit.
