2006 Ford Gt on 2040-cars
Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada
|
Being offered for sale is a true modern day classic 2006 Ford GT painted in the very desirable red with all four options, racing stripes, red calipers, lightweight BBS wheels and the McIntosh stereo. Car comes with the original window sticker, Ford GT duffle bag cover as well a beautiful Covercraft car cover, 2 keys & remotes, manuals, compressor, etc. The car has had two owners (including myself) who have thoroughly enjoyed driving this thrilling car. The car has never been driven on a track, just highway driving. Since new this car has been extremely well maintained by Ford and always stored indoors. This Ford GT is an excellent example showing minimal signs of the 23,946 miles of use. That is only about 3,000 enjoyable (highway) miles year. As the car was meant to be driven, there is 3 M protection on the nose of the car, rocker panels and rear panels behind the rear wheels. You can leave the 3 M protection in place or remove it. I won't go into the details of what a Ford GT is as if you're looking for a Ford GT, you already know about the performance characteristics of the car. The car has had a recent oil change as well as the spark plugs replaced. It also had a very small noise in the transaxle that a potential buyer most likely wouldn't have noticed, but I noticed it. A new transaxle was installed at the Broadway Ford Dealership in Green Bay, Wi on June 16, 2014 and the transaxle carries a 24 month unlimited mileage warranty from that date. A detailed multi-point inspection was performed at the same time. Everything checked out and the inspection form is attached as well as the work order and warranty for the transaxle. All four tires were replaced about 1,500 miles ago. I have an extra set of rear tires for sale for $1,200 U.S. for the pair. The passenger side wheels had some "curb scuffs" on them and I replaced both of them. The old wheels are available at n/c if you want them. The car is in A-1 mechanical condition! Attached is a recent copy of the AutoCheck vehicle history report for the car. There are a few road chips on the paint that has been repaired by a body shop. I've tried to show them in the pictures but it is very hard to see them. I have two new cars coming and have run out of room in my garage. I have thoroughly enjoyed this car but I'm now looking forward to my "new drives". There were just a little over 4,400 of these cars made through 2005/2006 and the prices are really starting to escalate. If you're thinking of purchasing one of these cars, sooner is better than later. The car is priced to sell at $219,000 in U.S. funds. Other than the warranty on the transaxle from Broadway Ford in Green Bay, the vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty expressed or implied. All shipping arrangements and costs associated shipping are the responsibility of the buyer. I encourage any prospective buyers to examine the car prior to purchasing. |

2015 Ford Mustang prototype spotted on the street
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Our trusty spy photographers have snapped the first photos of the 2015 Ford Mustang prototype out on public streets. With nearly every square inch of the machine covered in heavy camouflage, it's difficult to discern details, but we can see smallish horizontal headlamps at work in the coupe's nose. Ford has made it clear that modern lighting technology will allow the company to get away from large, expensive headlamp arrays in the near future, and the 2015 Mustang may very well be the first of the automaker's products to bow with the new tech. The philosophy was first displayed on the very attractive Evos Concept.
The extensive cladding doesn't extend all the way to the prototype's rockers in the instance, giving us a look at the heavily-sculpted sills. Overall, this test car looks considerably smaller than the current generation Mustang, and elements like a short front overhang and beefy dual-piston calipers give us plenty of hope for the future model. Of course, reports that the 2015 Mustang will bow with an independent rear suspension and EcoBoost power certainly don't hurt our feelings, either.
24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two
Sun, Jun 19 2016We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.
Ford opens 88 new dealerships in China in a single day
Mon, 23 Jun 2014"Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last year." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China during the first half of 2014." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last month." None of those statements - even the last one - would seem unbelievable. Saying "Ford opened up 88 dealerships in China last Thursday," though, is a bit more dramatic.
Yes, on June 19 alone, Ford opened the doors on nearly 100 showrooms in the People's Republic, boosting the Blue Oval's total presence in the country to 750 dealerships. Of course, while an overabundance of dealers in the US proved troublesome for American manufacturers back in 2008 and 2009, there's no such concern in China. Considering the country's huge population and the breakneck pace of the local auto industry, you could be forgiven for being surprised Ford only has 750 outlets at this stage.
What's notable about this most recent push, besides the sheer volume of new stores, is their location. Over three-quarters of the new dealerships are in so-called Tier 4 cities, which are smaller towns that still contain millions of people. This fits with Ford's strategy in China of avoiding the bigger battlegrounds that are already dominated by competitors and focusing on setting up shop in newer markets that may have been overlooked, according to Automotive News.
