Check out SVTPerformance.com... I believe there are some Ford GT owners on there and they sometimes show up in the for sale section.

Wish I could help more.

I don't see many for sale but when I lived in Michigan it was quite common to see them on the road. A lot of people from the city I lived in worked (past tense now ) for Ford so they got first dibs.

There was an older gal that used to drive it as a daily..... 10 mph below the speed limit... Kind of like corvette drivers. Then there was a guy in Ann Arbor that beat the **** out of his. When he passed by I thought I was at a Le Mans race.

Keep an eye out in the Detroit Metro area with the online newspapers. A lot of upper mangement are leaving....

I was at Champion Motorgroup in Long Island last week and they have 2 or 3. They are going for around $160k.

WRITE A BIG CHECK.

There's plenty of them to be had if you have the bucks.

I appreciate it, but I'm just biting off more than I can chew. I thought they'd be a lot cheaper than that. My brothers friend has one, maybe I can trick him into giving it to me for a good price.

The market for GTs is hot. A few of my friends are buying stock GTs throwing Heffner twin kits on them then shipping them overseas for insane profits.

FWIW, SHM is the laughing stock of the Ford Modular community. You can make the same power from a Ford GT for $1500, all it takes is SCT/Diablo custom tuning (including a handheld) and a pulley.

Lol. I was thinking of trading the E in for a GT, but just thinking. I thought they were half the price that they are. I really didnt think they were that expensive.

What is the deal with you constantly pointing out how people got (or how you think they got) their vehicles... I'm not about to get into it with you again because you're a joke and a horrible debater at best. However, you seriously have some sort of psychosis that you’re dealing with constantly that provokes your type of immature online responses.
Unfortunately from experience you won’t stop until you have the last word… so don’t bother. You’re just a constant d!ck and people have to call you on it, that’s all

Used E55's can be bought for $23,000... nothing impressive about owning one at 19 IMO
