Default Saw a Ford GT last night

Red with white stripes. Looked sharp. Nice LED tail lights. Was much louder than I would ever have expected for a factory car. Was on Mineral Spring Avenue at the top of the hill in North Providence. This is the first Ford GT I've seen on the road. Anyone else seen one?

Cool. I'm kind of suprised this is the only one I've seen. Maybe the production number are real low.

wow thats weird cyborg. yesterday when i was driving home from work for lunch i saw one too, red with white stripes. there was a dealer plate on it. first one ive seen in person too. very sharp car and like you said, pretty loud. i was definitly impressed with the looks and sound at least. too bad they had a huge recall on them because the suspension was falling apart, lol.

I'd love to hit the lottery, pick one up, drop it off at Dez's with a nice deposit, and have 'em up the boost & dial it in!
