As many of you know, I recently had to sell my '06 FGT due to health issues. I'd previously bought a set of the new run of Hot Buttons for both front seats, but not only did I never install them, they've never even been out of the box. These are the ones recently made by a Forum member. They...

Bittersweet (actually, downright teary-eyed sad) day for me today. The transport truck came and took away my beloved GT, headed to its new life with its new owner. The upside is that the new owner is a great guy, and I suspect he'll be active on the Forum. This is his first FGT, as he's...

Hi guys/gals, I accepted a deposit for my GT today. Buyer is a super nice guy who is new to GT ownership, but is a friend of a person who's active on the Forum. Thanks, everyone, for your interest. Very much appreciated. Van

Thanks, everyone, for your well wishes and thoughts regarding ways to sell my GT. I've sold two cars on BaT and had a good experience, but yes it did take quite a while to get the car through their queue and online. I'd really like to get the GT sold sooner than later, if possible. No way...

I saw this drink holder mentioned on the Forum about 6 months ago. It's available on Amazon...but I can't remember the name. If you search the Forum, you'll should be able to find the info as I did. BTW: It fits nice and snugly, and installs in about 30 seconds...with 25 seconds of that...

2006 Ford GT Tungsten. All 4 Options. Only 5,500 Miles. Whipple, Accufab, Ohlin, HRE Wheels & much more! Only Two Owners. Clean CarFax. Fast & Gorgeous. Selling due to Stage IV Lung & Brain Cancer Hi, Forum Friends, Several of you know that I have Stage IV Lung Cancer (diagnosed...

I've used Hagerty for over 20 years on cars of a GT's value with no problem being in CA.

I love my 1960s cars. They don't ask, don't tell.

F.O.R.D. is apparently now an acronym: "F*****g Over Real Drivers." My reply: "F*** Off, Restrictive D***s!"

I have Clearplex, as well as full PPF on my '06. My windshield took a hit from a smallish piece of gravel, on the freeway, and I thought for sure there'd be a nick, but nope. Money well spent!

Impressive engine, no doubt about it. Sets new standards. No electric assist involved! Kudos to those Corvette Group engineers. Too bad it's in a fugly car. Looks like a McLaren and a Lambo had a baby, and the child got the worst features of each parent. I'd take a street version, in...

SYCO GT: You ought to get a personalized license plate "21 MPG." That'd drive the greenies mad.

I understand the attraction to the incredible torque of EVs. (That's what I also love about my GT and Kirkham Cobra 427.) But, without the revving thunder behind the thrust, there's much less emotional attraction, IMO. A car buddy of mine bought the hottest Tesla, and now has the hottest...

Ask anyone who bought one brand new, then sold it later, if they regret it or not. I did that with my first Tungsten GT (during the 2008-9 recession) and it bugged me every time I saw one, until about 8 months ago when I found a low-mile lightly-modded Tungsten and snapped it up. Like...
