In 8 years I have seen two on the road, both times I wasn't in my GT. I imagine living in WY now will decrease the odds even further.

In the wild, one time in 8 yrs of ownership. At a restaurant parking lot.

Never. There are at least a few dozen in the DC metro area, but I've only seen three at car meets, and, of course, several at pe2tunia's when the GT Guys show up. Here in Florida, still never in the wild.

Never, at least while I am in mine. Which is crazy because I would venture to say that based on population, we have more GTs than any place in the country.

Never in 7 years even though there are 3 within 60 miles of where I live.

Is anyone surprised? There are only 4000 of these that exist worldwide. The chances of seeing one nearby are very low. There are some regional concentrations, including a handful around my area, but I never see them because we simply don't have our cars out at the same time. There are a three of us (mikey, jim, me) that take a spirited drive every once in a while (none this year yet, since Mike's car just finished his paint job) and the road we went on got repaved.

I think it is special to see another one in the wild. If I saw one while driving mine I'd try to meet. If I see one while not driving mine my cell phone pic will be in front.

And if any of you guys not in Colorado decide to drive through, please call!!!

Ran into MTV8 on one of those Saturday mornings when the weather is perfect and the car is calling for a quick spin with the windows down. Other than that, I only see them in the wild about once a year and never while I am in mine.

Never. However there are 11 within a 75 mile radius of me.

I have never seen one while I was driving my GT. I did see one in 8yrs, but in another car. It was a white with blue. Oh, and I see a blk with silver stripe every once in while in NM. Lives on same side of town. Other than my Dads red w white it is very rare to see one. So, to answer question. While driving my GT, I have never seen one in 8 yrs.

NEVER (except at car events, and its usually ron, or rick) but ironically yesterday, I saw one! The bigger irony was it was in my town (very small town) and it was a black no stripe (my gt color). Absolutely no idea who it was, and will probably never see it again.

Jamie Furman lives in Richmond; I believe he has a red/white...or did anyway.

The name is familiar. Besides my two, I know of a red, white, and blue. Also was in Charlotte last night with a client who is a former NASCAR driver and he has had a red nice 05-- two hundred miles. Don't tell Shelby.
