    50% Discount at Infineon - Sunday Nov. 20th

    Hi, Let me first say that CFRA is a private non-profit organization. You need to be invited to an event by a current member. Clearly LPI was your sponsor because both Monty and Steve have been long-time members, not to mention Bill and Tammy who are now partners with Monty and Steve. If the...

    50% Discount at Infineon - Sunday Nov. 20th

    Hi, I’m president of a private non-profit track organization in Northern California (www.cfra.net). We run at Infineon, Laguna Seca, Thunderhill and Buttonwillow. We emphasize safety and courtesy. In 17 years of holding HPDE sessions we have never had car to car contact. Attendance at a...

    Average Prices for Gt's goin up!!

    Good joke;-) Some people here think that after 80K miles the value will be $300K. Now that's a joke. I would guess that after 15K, depreciation will slow to $1,000 to 1K miles. So by my estimates, a car with 15,000 miles will sell for around $120K. A car with 30K miles around $105K. A car...

    Average Prices for Gt's goin up!!

    Asking prices may be going up but sales prices seem to be in line with a depreciation rate of at least $2,000 for every 1K miles put on the cars. I’ve been tracking all completed Ebay sales for the last 2 months for 2005 cars with over 500 miles. All but one has shown depreciation in line with...

    In the market for an 06

    Given my statements, the division would more appropriately be those who have eBay accounts and those who don’t. I’m only quoting EBay data. I’m not commenting on how the car handles or any aspect of the car that only an owner would have knowledge of. I would have hoped for a little better...

    Very elitist statement. Elitism is the belief or attitude that the people who are considered to be the elite — a selected group of persons with outstanding personal abilities, wealth, specialised training or experience, or other distinctive attributes — are the people whose views on a matter...

    GT Market - Record Low Price?

    Hi, Ebay sales for the GT have been almost nonexistent this month with sellers and buyers unable to come to term. The buyers want to pay around 140K and the sellers are looking for around $150K. Dealers can still get MSRP on the right car and even a few thousand above. The first sale this...

    Cost to operate vs. Ferrari 360/430

    Hi, How much does it cost to own a Ford GT vs. a Ferrari 360? I’m talking maintenance and repairs. Are they more or less reliable than a 360/430? When they do break, do they cost more to fix? Perhaps given that the GT is still under warranty, it’s too early to ask that question. But if you...

    In the market for an 06

    SYCO GT – I think we are pretty close based on what you said above. The only correction is that I only use completed sales data for clear title cars. I tend to be somewhat bullish on the value of these cars. I think they’ll hold their value if you keep the miles off. I also don’t think...

    In the market for an 06

    The only reason I’m tracking completed sales data is because I’m considering a GT as a future purchase and I’m watching the market. I got the idea from the Ford GT selling prices web site which was one of the greatest web sites that I’ve ever seen. The creator is a member of this form. He was...

    In the market for an 06

    I’m watching the eBay sales. The record low price is $140K for a 2005 (Yellow with 1K miles). Please take this with a large grain of salt but in general a Ford GT should go down in value from MSRP by around $2 per mile driven. A GT with 6K miles would be worth around $12K below MSRP. Once...

    THE MARKET.....The real numbers...........

    GT entry level prices My only interest is to determine the price required to purchase a Ford GT with a clear title in excellent condition. I don’t care if the car comes from a dealer or a private party. I’m also not interested in tracking price vs. color or even options. The mileage isn’t...
