My brother traded in his red/tan manual 430 for this mint 06 GT. It had 948 miles when we picked it up. Bone stock and even has the protective stickers on the door sills still!

I love the car and I think it looks and drives much nicer than the 430. The ride is unreal, it's a true exotic in every sense. I hope to bring it out to the next cars and coffee. :beer:

How many other forum members have a GT? Anyone know how many there are here in the metroplex? I know one lives in the same neighborhood as my brother in Castle Hills...

Welcome to the club, lots of good info on the GT at www.fordgtforum.com

Detroit built a jewel, your brother will be a happy man. Tell him to tear the stickers off and put some miles on that puppy.

He has a 08 superleggera he will rack the miles up on. He wants to keep this one as a Sunday cruiser. I told him we need to TT it! LOL.

It's too much fun to leave in the driveway and the motor has way to much potential to leave alone. You can get 900-1000 whp with turbos and a clutch change... the tranny is solid.

Nice car Al. Kumar has one that same color combo, with a twin turbo kit. I think it made a little over 1000rwhp on race gas. Definitely a nice car!

I'm hoping I can get my brother to seethe light. Maybe Fubar or Kumar can give him a ride in a modded GT so he can see what he's missing out on! I'll let him get through the honeymoon phase first though.

Done a few mods to Kumar's F-GT. Same color combo. Awesome cars. Even better with TT setup :thumbsup2:

Yes, Kumars GT is a monster! I got to see it in action the other night. Marks GT is no slouch either!

Looks like GTs got a bit more rare.
