Ford GT

[Jim]

That is an ugly 170,000 car...

That's Lambo and Ferrari price range...

[3_Series]

good luck finding a lambo or a ferrari at that price though

[94NDTA]

Fuck, I made a thread about this...I saw the black one driving around. It sounded like pure sex.

[Jim]

Gallardo's can be had for that, so can 360 modenas...

[Raider]

if you have 170K to spend on a car Im sure ppl buy what they like...the GT's have been discontinued so it will be a collector for sure....I would buy one myself if I had 170k but not that ugly Leman's color

they have mods out for them already and ppl are seeing 210+mph with them

[Raider]

I looked up the price of a complete motor with s/c and everything and I shit ..retail of 35,593.32

[Jim]

what are they ? v12s?

nevermind looked it up s/c v8 geez 35g's for a sc v8?

[Raider]

ya 35k for a 32v s/c V8 motor is retarded...you wont see ppl doing motor swaps with that setup

Kenne Bell already has a new s/c setup for it with more boost options

If you are rich and want a exotic domestic ride then a GT would be the ride to have, but if you were going to buy a new domestic performance car I would look at the Z06 instead and save the 120K

[Jim]

There are S/C and Turbo kits out for the C6 now too...

But damn... how can they justify the price?

[24valvenotak]

they cant, thats why they dont make em anymore

[Raider]

price is the thing...ppl buy them because they are rare and 1 of a kind

you and I can beat the performance of the GT with a small fraction of the money it cost to buy one

the Z06 is only a few tenths slower in the 1/4 then the GT and thats a selling point and so is the price

I guess if you have the money buy what you like

that just sounds alittle messed up, something wrong with calling a domestic an exotic... just sounds funny to me. either way that blue one looks like complete ass!

The guy that owns the black GT is crazy. He got a smoke screen kit installed at set it off at my Dad's shop. It smelled like shit for days...

He was also flying around in that supercharged GT in the winter w/10" wide tires on the back.

[dubbsy]

screw the Z06.. the GT can handle..

I'd take the GT over any one of those other cars... any day, any week.

That black one intrigues me though. Wonder if it'll be in the next gumball 3000...
Per the license plate it's the new 'Torquenstein', replacing a Hennesey TT Viper that was wrecked in the desert overseas during 2004 Gumball 3000.

[dynotune]

If the license plate says tork 1, I think it may be the guy who owned the torquenstein viper which was wrecked in the gumball in 2005. (www.torquenstein.net)). I could be wrong- but he's from fargo and already had a hennesey TT viper...

[dynotune]

sorry dubbsy, you beat me

[KA-T_240]

tt viper from fargo. i would why i have never heard off that or him based on the site being a race driver and everything

[Bryce]

Yep Dubb's is right, he is exporting that GT for Gumball 2006

[Afsil80]

Y'all are crazy, I would rock the HELL out of the LeMans-esque GT.

Take that sumbitch to Road Atlanta and just go nuts.

BTW, Torquenstein is my hero.

Go watch the DVD 'Vehicular Lunatics' by IMV films (should be on his site) if you haven't already. He plays a decent sized role in it.

Sucks to hear about his Viper.
