It has almost been a year since I started reading on this forum. I finally have taking delivery of a 2006 Blue and White Ford GT with 8 miles still in the wrapper. I trid to post a pic showing delivery but it was getting dark. I can not explain the feeling I had when I saw this car being unloaded. Great car and I can not wait to take it out.....

Welcome to the fold.

Should be close to 80 degrees tomorrow, so surely a GT drive is in order.

Enjoy The Ride.

Yep...welcome to what should be a genuine help to you in your new ownership of a great marque. Please remember to take it easy until you get used to your new "Gal"...we just lost one in VA. And by the way, white is a very good color, although there are some of us that swear by black!

Congrats! Great to have another local FGT owner. Let me know if you are interested in getting together for a Houston GT gathering...there are at least five of us on the forum.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I have always been a long time viper fan/owner since 1996 but something about the Ford GT always kept my attention. Like I said before, I had honestly been looking for a year now and I know Shelby can attest to that cause we have spoken on several occassions but could never put the car with the right price but I do greatly appreciate his efforts. I think Shelby still has a Heritage I would not mind taking off his hands since I hear the trend on the forums is ownership of 2 or more Ford GT's is growing.

Thanks again everyone, my new forum home....

Mark

Welcome Mark to the fraternity. ChrisA, me, and the wives just had dinner and he asked if I could only take one sports car(and I have a few) and that would be it what would I choose and I answered the GT. I would be sad however that I couldn't drive the other one:wink
