I take my Mustang to work about once a week and today was a 100 mile round trip day. I was driving along and looked in the rearview window and there was an 05 GT red with white stripes. When the opportunity presented itself the driver decided that my 75 miles per hour wasn't fast enough and passed me. As he went by I looked over and the driver looked at me. I gave him a big and he looked forward and didn't even knowledge the gesture. I know that he could have gotten 5 cars like mine for what he paid for his but I thought he was kind of an ****! Nice car BTW!

Pity you weren't driving the new Z06 you could have kicked his hiney I know cause I read it in a magazine and I believe everything I read so there.

Sorry, couldn't resist poking fun at a certain someone!

Maybe he was upset because your GT has a clean tail. It is ok by me, each car has different owners so each car can be different. Who cares about him, are you happy? I know I am. Just enjoy sir, enjoy.

The GT is a supercar. Supercar's tend to be tempremental.

In fact, for the time frame of development, I think Ford did an excellent job in both the performance and reliability aspects.

If I could have any car on this earth...it would be a Ford GT.

Nope the GT will not leave the new Z06 far behind when it comes out swap some slicks on the Z06 good race there. Wait and see people when the actual numbers come out on the Z06 we will see who is right.

I will take a mid-engined car over a front-engined car any day of the week.

It's a prerequisite to be a true 'super-car'.
