#1075 would be nice.
Gentlemen,
Visually, nothing gets it for me like the Ford GT. I might trade mine for a 1960's original but that's it IF I had to give up my GT for good. 0 to 220mph in 24 seconds from my TTGT puts it in a league of it's own as well.

May I remind you that the happiest days of a boater's life are the day he buys his boat (yacht) AND THE DAY HE SELLS IT? :lol
The old saying that a boat is a bottomless hole in the ocean into which man pours endless hours and dollars is pure gospel! :agree:

No kidding.
When asked what his mega yacht burned for fuel, A. Onasis reportedly said, "Money".
HE ought to know!
I have a very nice Grady White fishing boat. (no yacht by any means). The PITA factor of my single boat compared to several cars is MUCH higher. I still love it , however.

I am getting old. There are cars being mentioned that I am not even familiar with.
For me, I tend to buy American (M5 exception and kid's Hondas). My dad drove me to school
In a 57 T Bird top down no matter the temp. My older brother, a Doctor had a 67 GTO and 71 Vette.
I started with Vettes (many) then Vipers (9) and in 05 lusted for the GT but figured like Vipers they would depreciate and I would pick one up cheap. Yet another example of my business savvy.
Back in 94 when I first got a Viper I had never experienced the type of visceral reaction people had to the car. It was crazy and still is at times. The GT gets a reaction that is like nothing I have ever experienced, both from me and others.
Dodge woke up the car world with the Viper and was responsible for much better Vettes. By 05 Dodge and Chevy had upped the ante so much that when Ford took the heroic measures to produce the modern GT, the HP wars had paved the way to make a true supercar. So called remakes rarely work well ( T Bird yuch) Ford did something we likely will never see again with the modern GT.
Of my cars, if I could only keep 2 it would be my Heritage and VIN 000002 1992 Viper. If I had to pick one......?

My GT gets a lot of attention, but nothing compared to my Aerial Atom. That thing stops traffic and produces crowds out of nowhere. To the point that I wait until late at night to take it to a gas station because I dont want to stop somewhere during the day if possible.

I already have one of these
My next car will have a 10 or 12 cylinder 10,000 rpm motor. Trying to figure that out now. Not sure what will handle the rpm's but with today's technology who knows.
I always liked the Corvette GT race cars, there is a replica out there but they don't look like they have sold many yet.

Pretty easy actually. There are a lot of exotics that do 10,000 RPMs. There are also some Japanese engines that do that, not sure what cars though.

"WF" is -513, The Flying Nightmares. That was my first "gun" squadron. VMA-513 is currently deployed supporting OEF.
Is that your aircraft? It is absolutely gorgeous. Any time you want to trade it for my GT, send me a PM. I'll even through in my wife's Freestyle to sweeten the deal.
