| I saw a GT 40 today... Yeah, I looked at a GT 40 today at my local Ford dealership (originally there to check out the Fusion, awesome car) and man...it was SWEET.
I stood right there and one of the salesmen told me all about it, I saw the engine in the back, and unfortunatley I saw the price tag (I thought I was going to stand on my head and whistle "The Bridge on the River Kwai").
Awesome car.

The actual price is a little higher

| I don't get it, it's just a Ford, gonan break down in a month or two. Anyways the GT 40 ain't no prize, got all these blind spots, recommended for track use, not street use.

| yea you cant do that lol. Anyways, every car will last long as long as you take care of it and maintenance it.
Yea the 4banger cars last longer cause they got less moving parts to mess up.

Anyways the GT 40 ain't no prize, got all these blind spots, recommended for track use, not street use. | That part about Ford breaking down is all opinion man. I hate it when people diss cars because of the way they think and their opinion, don't even try to come out with "oh I have experience with them breaking" because frankly I don't give a care. They wouldn't be a company if they all broke down and either you haven't realized it or you just haven't found out yet, all cars have problems. Just because people experience a bad car doesn't mean ever single other car in that company is flawed.
I brought it up because it's an awesome car and there are only 1600 of them in the world.
Of course it has blinds spots, its made to race.
Warez, I know someone that has a new Vett. Dang man, those things are so nice *drules*
And much much cheaper.

Well, I would always go for a cheaper car because:
1.) I can get one that has 200-300 HP and just as much fun for far less.
2.) The parts are much more easy to replace.
3.) It probably won't eat up gas like a mother.
4.) Safety.
That's why I was looking at the new Ford Fusion, beautiful car...
