    William, I truly hope you get the GT. It really is a special car that was made in a special moment in time.

    ...And I will use any excuse to post this video of it, which is one of my favorite car videos of all time.

    I also agree that you should get the Ford GT. I absolutely love those cars. You should also take a trip over to GT40s.com and check it out. As previously mentioned, great bunch of guys over there. I am over there all the time.

    I'd believe the Autoblog number to be the typo. I do not believe there are 100 GTX-1's...

    Never could the 'net be wrong! :D

    I doublecheck'd the autoblog link and it includes the press release from Genaddi stating "only about 100 GTX1s..."

    Also, found same on Jalopnik: http://jalopnik.com/341645/ford-gtx1-reaching-end-of-production

    Two sources quoting the same source so it must be true. :D

    That said, wouldn't be the first time a manufacturer fibbed about production #s.

    Funny, I saw three tungsten GTX-1's just last week. I think I've seen 7 of the 28 or so GTX-1's made.

    There was no "manufactuerer" there was only Genadi (sp?) design who did the conversions. Although, there is talk of the original designer of the X-1's starting to make the conversions again "soon" (which may be 12 months away if it happens).

    who wants to take a perfectly good car... and then cut the roof off... I would pretty much consider any of those cars totalled... but thats just me and I am clearly biased and stubborn

    (even though this did happen to the double leman winner 1075) LOL

    I just recently bought a GT William. I doubt very much you will be disappointed, they really are a great car. I am still getting to know it, but that will change in a few weeks as I yake it on a trip to the Le Mans Classic...cant wait.
    My only reservation is the steering, which is a little light for my taste. I see you have already joined the GT Forum, it is a great place, just like here, all the help and enthusiasm you could wish for.
    I really believe the GT will go down in history as one of the true greats..go for it.

    I saw a Navy Blue one with no stripes today. It was the first I've seen w/ out the stripes.

    Looks REALLY badass!
