The 2006 Ford GT is now worth up to 400, 000. I drove one to find out why. yuskjr: so, people have issues with this car being worth 400k [most on Autotrader are going for 240-320k, besides rare editions/paint schemes], but nobody has any issue with F40's going for over 1 million? seriously? the F40 is probably the most overrated car in history with a horrendously laggy TTv8 that sounds like crap, kit car build quality, a sparse bare-bones interior, & twitchy rear-end, yet it goes for 3x the price of this Ford GT that actually provides a good driving experience, good build quality on the interior/exterior, has a great powerplant in the back devoid of any lag, & is rocksteady during cornering/acceleration. really? did i mention the fact that everyone drools over a Ferrari sporting a measly 2. 9L v8 with terrible 1980's turbo-lag? just twice now? okay, how about the fact that a supposed dream Ferrari that is supposed to be all about driving thrills only boasts a pathetic 2. 9L v8 that needs two turbo's just to make any sort of power [which is quite peaky & unpredictable. ]? how exactly is that formula better than the other hypercars Ferrari has produced? the F50 uses a wonderful N/A 4. 7L v12 taken straight from their Formula 1 racing, has good fit/finish on the exterior & interior, sounds INCREDIBLE, has a suspension setup dedicated to nothing but ultimate feedback for the driver, provides some of the most stable handling imaginable from a road car, & has the option to become a convertible too; the Enzo has a N/A 6. 0L v12 that sounds awesome, responds instantly to driver input, sports arguably the best looks of any Ferrari ever made, is quite daily-drivable, & has the fit/finish you'd expect from a Ferrari supercarso, why exactly is the F40 almost 3x the price of this Ford GT when the Ford GT is clearly miles ahead of that car in nearly every aspect except the badge? why exactly is there an issue with the car going for 240-400k when you have one of the shittiest Ferrari's ever made going for 1. 2 million or more [especially when there are FAR better choices out there from that brand that offers FAR better driving experiences]? point blank - it's the rarity/exclusivity & nostalgiathis Ford GT is worth what it is worth simply because of rarity/exclusivity & nostalgia. people are willing to pay that price because the car is that damn good to drive, it's rare/exclusive with low numbers available, & it's an icon that represents the brand in all it's glory - having one of these is having so much more than just a car, it's having something special; something that means more & is worth more than just the metal it's made ofi don't mind good cars like the Ford GT being worth a bunch of money [i'd still buy one if/when i had/ve the cash. ], but i do mind cars like the F40 being sold for prices they don't deserve in any way. the Ford GT justifies it's price [like it or not], but i honestly can't see where the F40 validates over 1 million at all. & i feel like im the only sane person on the planet sometimes because everybody just spews love for the F40 while shitting on the clearly superior F50 all the time. i just don't get it-___________-

Hold onto yours Doug, regardless of miles, these cars are going to SKYROCKET in June 2019 when FORD v. FERRARI (with Christian Bale) hits theatres, and people begin to know what that car really is about. Knowing under 4, 000 exist, some say maybe under 3500 with all the crashes, races, fires, etc, see on Youtube and images across the internet, it is getting less and less. Take away the garage queens that have 2-5 miles that nobody will ever drive, which is dumb for a GT car, and this has the hallmarks of a 500, 000 car shortly - regardless of miles. Anyone who HATES the GT does not have one. Anyone who has one knows it is headed for the stars.

Theres a big-budget film about rivalry between Ford and Ferrari at Le Mans auto race is in work at 20th Century Fox and its being directed by James Mangold. In the movie Ken Miles will be portrayed by Christian Bale. His wife and son will be portrayed by Caitriona Balfe and Noah Jupe respectively. The movie is expected to begin shooting in the summer of 2018 and is set for 2019 release. His closest acquaintance Carroll Shelby will be played by Matt Damon.

With that door's design, you should stand right up with one leg out, you shouldn't bend to get out, I recently watched jay leno's video where the designer of the 05-06 Ford GT Talked about the designing and development of the GT, Where the door design was discussed, It's actually quite interesting that this is pretty much an exact replica model of the 1966 GT40 ( Which obviously has some tweaks to meet the Road safety regulations.

Fords do suck ass. but they do come out with straight up icons when they decide to try and stick it to chevy and dodge. 69 boss Mustang big block. gt 40. ford gt. and maybe 4 more cars are the best of the best. but their also usually a very limited run and you need to be rich to get one. That's why dodge and chevy are the go to American muscle. But every so often Ford reminds us all that it all began with them.

you gotta remember those doors were made for race drivers to hop it easier and quicker. the ford gt was designed as a race car not a daily luxury car. oh, and most cars that ford designed and put on the build line were given 50++++ months to be designed and tested and everything, along with most other cars. the ford GT only had 15 months

0-60 in 3. 7 seconds in 2005 was impressive, but today you can buy a brand new, collectible, McLaren or even two GT3's for less money and under warranty. This has terrible seats too. Godawful. Like the Countach, never meet your idols. And yeah, I am not clicking links for your damn thoughts - they should be on your videos Dougie.
