 I bought this car in March, 2013 from the original owner, a retired 83 year old professor from Southern California. I'm a 68 year old retired professor, so it has always been senior owned and driven. I bought as a fun transport to take  my grandchildren to soccer games, etc. but mama, my daughter-in-law, says "no" - it isn't safe enough to suit her. Arrgh! I've only driven it 3K since flying out to LA and driving the car back, so it needs to go to someone who will drive it and appreciate it. It has been garaged since brand new and I only have room for one car in my garage (too many motorcycles!), so my daily driver, a VW Jetta, has to sit out. We have tough winters here, soooo...

The top is black and in perfect shape - no leaks. The car is fun to drive with the 5 speed and powerful V8 engine with a throaty dual exhaust (stock). The paint is shiny and freshly waxed. Leather seats with wear only on the drivers side - the others are like new. The Michelin Sport Pilot tires only have 3K on them (I put them on as soon as I got the car back to Illinois). The intake manifold was replaced with the upgraded one before I left California at 38K.

I have all the original manuals. Carfax will verify mileage, etc.

This is a unique opportunity to own a perfect, very low mileage GT Convertible. I doubt there is another one with this low mileage in the entire country.

James Franco and tiger tease Ford Super Bowl commercial

Sat, 01 Feb 2014

Ford has just released a teaser for its Super Bowl ad, and unlike just about every other automaker, it seems that the Blue Oval is going to make us wait until Sunday to see the full spot. The teaser is, um, strange.
It stars James Franco, who believes he is Ron Riggle, the comedian, Fox NFL Sunday host and retired Marine lieutenant colonel. There's also a tiger. The vague spot has Franco claiming that "this is no ordinary commercial." You'll note on the bottom right, there's a Ford logo and the hashtag #nearlydouble.
According to Automotive News, it's part of a massive viral effort being pushed forward by Ford and its dealerships. Ford sent different teasers and "vignettes" to dealership employees and asked them to share them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, in the hopes of creating a viral effect.

Ken Block is at it again in Gymkhana 6

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

If there's one thing we'll say about Ken Block and his latest installment in the Gymkhana family, it's that it's far more structured than previous videos, but that doesn't mean it skimps on the entertainment. Block is on a purpose-built course which was touted as "The... Ultimate... Gymkhana... Grid... Course" in last week's preview. Unlike Gymkhana 5, which took placed on closed streets in San Francisco, this course seems much more compact.
Block has an entire array of challenges to tackle in his 650-horsepower Ford Fiesta ST, and none of them look particularly easy. In fact, we'd argue that Gymkhana 6's grid course requires much more precise driving that previous titles. There are Segways, Lamborghinis and massive pieces of construction equipment that all must be dealt with.
We've got the entire 6:28 of Gymkhana madness for you down below. Scroll down for the video and then hit Comments and let us know how this installment compares to previous Block works.

Watch this week's Top Gear America used-car challenge

Sat, Sep 9 2017

Top Gear America is back for the penultimate episode of the first season. Used car challenges were some of the highlights of the original UK edition. In our exclusive clip, Tom Ford, Antron Brown and William Fichtner run their $7,000 sports cars in a drag race. As expected, the trio chose very different cars for the challenge. Watch the video to see if a Subaru WRX's all-wheel drive can overcome a power deficit to beat a Ford Mustang and a Chevy Corvette. Brown and Fichtner also spend some time relaxing with an old Jeep Wagoneer. Like them, we're really hoping Jeep will bring back the Wagoneer nameplate. Brown also drives a Maserati Levante, proving that not all family cars need be boring. This week's guest star is actor, rapper and former host of Pimp My Ride, Xzibit. Top Gear America airs Sundays at 8 p.m. Eastern on BBC America. Related Video: Celebrities TV/Movies Chevrolet Ford Subaru Top Gear exclusive top gear america
