Gt

I had a silver one, sold it early last year. Boy do i wish i had kept it. In the last 2 years i have owned a 360 spyder, 6.0 lambo, GT3RS to name a few. That car was the best looking out of all of them..imo. It was a fast car and comfy inside. 2 Things, visability was not the best out of the rear and i didnt think the car sounded like a true supercar. A car having 500hp should sound a lot better. Other than that it was a great car. Those cars are also holding there value and in some cases going up in value. I sold mine for 9k more than i paid for it.

A friend modified a clients car with headers exhaust pulley and software, and the car made 650 wheel hp shooting flames and was unbelievable. Not breaking records, but the car was perfect and faaaaast.

I believe it will hold it's value very well since they didn't make many and probably won't make an other.

Easy to maintain, to fix, to drive, to upgrade, to look at, to sell, I could go on forever.
I love the car so much !

Sat in one today - need a bit more headroom - maybe 2 inches would be great - going to look into modifying the seat rails

Not sure if I can do this but Shelby from Elite Autos LLC moves a lot of used Ford GTs. I have a few friends with them, I've only driven one twice but can say it was a lot of fun.

Also have not found an owner yet who did not like theirs.

No other car quite like it really - and not just because I own one. You can't take it anywhere and not have folks taking pictures of it and asking a thousand questions. Pull into any cars and coffee or curise night and it is imediately surrounded by folks wanting to get a closer look.

Love my Heritage GT. The car's a classic. Kids love it, grandparents love it, and everyone in between loves it. Most importantly, I love it. Heck, pull into a Porsche meet or a Corvette meet and everyone still wants to talk to you. The car is all love. Just do it. I've got a heffner pulley, tune and exhaust on mine, it's amazing.

I had been looking at the FGT's for a while but after going to the Mojave Mile last year I had to have one. BTW, they rule the mile events. I wanted a car that could do road race, mile and drag if necessary and be easily modified and bullet proof (their good with stock internals to 1000 hp). I have an exhaust, pulley and tune and it's 634 RWHP.

Mine had 2900 mi and expect to pay the most for (in order) Heritiage, then Black, Blue,
Silver, White, Yellow then Red. Color, mileage and conditon reflect price.
A low mileage car can bring more than the original MSRP, so not much depreciation.
Be prepared to get a lot of attention driving one, I can't drive more than 10 miles without someone snapping pictures of the car and getting thumbs up.
