Ford GT production stopped

Interesting article over at CNN money

http://money.cnn.com/rssclick/2006/0...n=money_latest

Ford has stopped production of the GT, only making a total of 1300..

This is a good thing for whoever owns one.

The real shame is Ford probably spent too much $ they couldn't afford to waste. I was on the list for that car from the get go and all I know is the MSRP kept rising with each passing year (probably took almost 3 from announcement to deliveries) and then the greedy dealer/reseller network got involved. Had they be able to produce the car for around 115-120 and then make a bunch so it wasn't 50 over, it would have been a success for them. Now, the unused ones will make nice Barrett-Jackson cars in 40-50 years when todays teens have money and are lusting after them. I would caution anyone in running out and buying one as a money-making venture unless it's for your grandchildren.

I love the Ford GT, Its a sort of car that would last for a long time and still has strong appeal
