I forgot.:eek:

RE: I'm sorry, I can't respect GM!
 

I'm the opposite. I'll take a Ford over a GM based on the fact that I have had some decent Fords that last and have had nothing that I would call reliable from GM.

RE: I'm sorry, I can't respect GM!
 

I'll take a Ford GT over a Corvette Z06 any day.

How do you like that apples and orange comparison? LOL!

RE: I'm sorry, I can't respect GM!
 

Good and so would I for one reason. The Ford GT will be worth more in say 30-40 years then the Corvette will. An investment.

RE: I'm sorry, I can't respect GM!
 

You'll find one of my posts where I talk about a dream car for many years and finally reality took over. But I still love the Ford GT/GT40
and the legacy and history of kicking Enzo at Le Mans. I wish I could have been there.

They could have called it the GT44 but I guess it does not have the same ring.

RE: I'm sorry, I can't respect GM!
 

Yeah but it least I know my dream car is a possibility. A Viper since you can get them used for around $25 grand, granted it will probably need work due to being beaten to HE!! and back, but it would be worth it.

RE: I'm sorry, I can't respect GM!
 

The Viper is certainly a nice car and has a lot of muscle but have you ever sat and driven in one. I am not that tall
and I can tell you it was a tight fit and the blind spots were horrible.

That being said, this is your dream car and I hope you get it and can post the results of your dream some day on this forum.

Best Wishes.

PS- I could realize my dream by buying a GT40 Mach II version (which is my personal favorite) www.superformance.com and get a $65K version almost all put together without
an engine and transmission.......but that is still way too expensive. Many of the Mach II's have the same hood as a regular Ford GT but look at the rear scoops. Looks like a fighter plane.

Well I thank you and wish you similar luck. No I have never sat in one but I know how those types of cars are like. My aunt had a '99 Mercedes SL500 convertible, and that was a tight squeeze, plus the seats had little cushion and it sat too low. This is more of a weekend car. I will probably have either a Ram, a used Charger, or 300M as my daily commutor. Of course this is several years down the road. It is partically an investment idea because I believe those will gain their value back in say 20-30 years.
