Think on this car specifically, heavy medications is a material net negative on market value, even if done by a good shop…for many reasons…and can’t say I disagree. When shopping for most enthusiast cars, especially this one, I’m only buying stock, well cared for examples. Some subtle...

My 2012 V10 R8 has a section in the manual about oil consumption in high strung engines like this, and as said above, limits RPM to around 6K until the car is warmed up properly…would have been an easy “idiot proof” fix for sure. User error in many ways I agree, but they missed an opportunity...

Congrats she’s incredible! Personal opinion but I feel the complete opposite about the auto blip - I actually coded it out of the M2 I had with it. I drive stick because I want to be the one doing all the work! But I hear you, it was nice for daily duties but she’s no daily for me :) Enjoy...

Fired up for you - always love that first detail…a special moment with a car like this and always a nice opportunity to learn every inch of the car. Congrats again!

Such a hitter move to clear 100K on a car like that…prob still worth more than he paid haha - love it and respect!

Marvel of engineering, that’s for sure. Was in the Hamptons this past weekend and saw both an 05/06 Ford GT in red and a modern GT in gray within a matter of hours. I’ve never seen a modern GT in the wild…and holy sh** the presence on the road is nutty…still in love with the OG of course. The...

I also just think the cars lines photograph better in some colors - I think the darker colors are incredible in pics vs the lighter but in real life I think the car wears them all well. Red is another good example…10x better in person vs pics on this body. Either way fired up for you and...

Once you get the R, you won’t miss the Mach 1 at all…you’re breaking up with a good girlfriend, and replacing her with a drop dead gorgeous one with all the bells and whistles too haha! Also, I’ve said this before but car looks 10x better in person - pics do the HE no justice for some reason...

Awesome news - good luck and keep us posted! I can assure you the color combo looks 100x better in person vs pics and the driving experience will exceed all expectations - good luck!

Won’t argue with you on this one, it’s one hell of a car and the color combo looks significantly better in person than in photos. It truly is special! Agreed with the above on that BAT auction, folks are sticklers on minor details especially with the HEPs given collectability which I...

Two kinds of American power :)

Still available - some things I didn’t like that also pushed me. Had the rear bumper delete mod that looks sexy as hell but no stock bumper so that was an issue. It had the gray painted caliper option from the factory but the guy painted them red which also bothered me and that wasn’t...

Thanks for all the feedback guys…appreciate it! And honestly, I may just buy the GT now as an FU to the puto…definitely tipping the scales a bit haha :)

Good point, and I'm sure change will happen at some point...I sold every "forever car" I ever owned for new experiences eventually...I say this time is different, but we know that's not the case, and time /storage space always a limiting factor. For now, passing for the reasons above, plus the...

Happy July 4th ride to Sagamore Hill (Teddy Roosevelt's House) on Long Island...two gorgeous pieces of US History, he'd be proud of the Blue Oval for this one!

Best mod I’ve ever done for less than $1! USB port cover from Amazon, so small but really cleans up this area and wish I thought of it sooner!

All good feedback and considerations - thank you guys! Will keep thinking on this and let you know where I shake out. Appreciate it.

Thanks guys - “investment” is another consideration there…I think the 350R and R8 are both worth a lot more in 10 years…the Ford GT, not certain and could see it going either way. Super rare, special, never to be made again, etc…but it’s worth 3x sticker now, so not sure what happens here in...

Hey guys - unexpected opportunity presented itself to scoop up a 2006 Ford GT in my perfect spec (white/blue stripes, wheel option, audio upgrade, painted calipers) with low miles and good history. This car is a legit hero car to me…an American icon that I personally feel will go down as one of...

Yes different car - this one should be online this week. Gorgeous spec, sure it will move quickly!
