Ford GT

Saw a nice blue/white stripe GT this AM on the LIE. Anybody here?
Very nice car, about the only thing I would dump my turbo to get!
Awsome!
What's the market on these right now, I may be looking in the future.
TIA

Most are at $170k+. Prices really jumped and theyve sat there for awhile. Dont see them dropping anytime soon.

Chris,
PM Joetwint, he has a nice one and knows the market well and where to find some deals.
I have seen them as low as $145-$150 with some miles on them.

Color combo and mileage are the determining factors regarding price on the GT.Black/Silver,Heritage,and Blue/white are in higher demand and command higher prices than Red/white or White/Blue(Ford made by far the most GT's in these two color combos).Also a stripe delete car will bring big money as will almost any color with delivery miles(under 500).Add to this that many of the 4000 or so built have been wrecked or bought overseas and that Ford is not building them anymore . However one could find a nice, no stories car with under 3,000 miles in the $160,000 dollar range if you like the white or red.They are great cars and really are rolling works of art.Not to mention they drive and look great!

Thanks Joe, I really want one of these cars as an addition maybe this winter/spring. I could do either blue or white. They really are works of art.

Why? For door panels that are held on with double sided tape?

I know the FGT is in a different league than a 997 but the P car is a much better built car.

I agree that it is a work of art and is the car that I would want to look at every day but I think it would be tough to use as a DD and that is where the TT excells.

Is this an observation based on first hand experience?
