Default saw two 05 ford gt's

i was at a dodge dealership of all places and i saw a truck unloading some cars. it had 4 vipers and 2 gt's so i had to stop and take some pics. one of the salespeople walked up and opened the door so i got to see the inside and everything. the pic is from my ****ty camera phone, it's all i had with me at the time.

Nice! but why would dodge be recieving FOrd GT's? or maybe they were just dropping off the vipers and then bringin the GT's to Ford??

I would like to have just one day with a FOrd GT

I used to work for GM at in Port Newark NJ, what happens is in the "yard" there are all kinds of cars from Caddy's to Acura's. Trucks get a list of deliveries and load up. So what tends to happen is you get a big assortment of goodies on the truck.

That has GOT to be fun flying 200 mph in one of those.
Its funny when someone says soemthing about the mustang being a crappy car then refer to the vette. All you have to say is ford GT and they shut up.

yeah they were dropping off the vipers then going to a two different ford dealerships to drop off one gt at each. heh, i walked up to the guy standing there and was like "c..c...can.... I.. t...t....touch... it...." got the strangest look from him. lol. and everybody inside was talking about the cars the whole time.

GT! i didnt even look at the vipers after seeing the gt's.

actually, to be honest, most of the vipers at that dealership look like crap. that place has a reputation for customizing about half of the cars that go through the place. all of the trucks have crazy paint jobs and huge rims. some of the vipers looked really riced out. it's a shame.

Vipers are ok! GT 500's are ok ! But I'd rather have a COBRA. Why? Because of this:

Viper looked like it was standing still. I think the GT would be a ride you would want to leave stock and I think too many shops would be afraid to go in and work on it.
