GD, someone call Jay Leno and ask. Also ask what he paid for his two Ford GTs.

I'm sure it'll come out as a concept car first, but they're not testing it as heavily as they are on a concept.

Ford GT fighter?

Everywhere I look I see ~63 for the 350r. Plenty of stories of them being 40k above that though.

Hey. I get it. The website does allow you to plug it in, but in reality it's not the case. Much like finding an ACR for around $90-100k......

Yeah no one is buying that with a 10k addendum.

My brother got Employee pricing through Wal-Mart. He runs a store in Thibodeaux.

Edit: Was gonna correct the name but ill own that shame

I'll ask him.

I think the dealer told him he's like the only one in town so far. Pretty hard to miss. The car is LOUD.

911 fighter.

Corvette is more about brand commitment as is Porsche. The GT has come and gone too much to be a legacy challenger.

Had a Vette C7 and it was a phenomenal car. Everything I read about the mid-engine though is that it will be a $150K car made alongside the continuing C7 - something to compete with the Ford GT.

Any particular reason you got rid of it? Like many others, I thought the mid-engine would have been on the street long before now.

I wish Vetteguy was still around to see this. I would have liked his opinion here.

Idk but if you try to go to his post history you get the stop sign.


ETA I like Vetteguy too, always good to have another car guy around here.

His acct looks to be completely scrubbed. History, screen name, everything. Curious thing though, if you do a google search of "vetteguy tiger droppings" and go in to the "Paging VetteGuy, do engine/fuel additives work?" link, you can see his old post from 8/20/16… with his Online Green light ON.

ETA: VG was always a fab poster of mine.

Traded it in for a family car. Took a $10K loss after 1 year to get rid of it, and I've regretted it every day since. Stupid move on my part. In another year or two I'll get another sports car though - either a Vette,a Cayman S, or a ZL1 1LE.

If that's the case we both know he probably serving a timeout for awhile. I enjoyed his posts as well.

I saw 69 Charger at a show not long ago and thought of you. The restoration was done very well and he spared no expense getting it that way. He had some serious money in it.
