It's OK. I'd still rather have an 05-06 GT over a lot of the new exotics coming out or anything near it's price range! I've seen many exotics in person, but only 1 tungsten GT, and the GT is just something else to me. It was my dream car the second I saw it's amazing ass.

Same here. Ford GT is still one of the best supercars ever made. Fast, simple, easy to drive, and drop dead gorgeous.

+1. I'm glad there are others who feel the same way about the FGT! 11/10. When I saw it, I swear I couldn't even blink. And I saw MANY exotics. From Mclaren F1, Ferrari's, All Lambos, Vipers, Porsches, etc. That car is just epic in every way.

CGT and FGT are the last of a dying breed and I plan on owning both some day. Oh the things I would do...

Yes. They are both badass cars. My other neighbor had a CGT, it was silver. Sounded insanely epic. But I would keep the FGT, and use the left over money for either upgrade in SC and what not, or go TT. Oh my. That V8 Rumble with turbos spooling is jizztastic!

I feel you on that. That is exactly how I feel. I like both, but as you said, I think I have a much better chance owning a FGT in the future. And +1 on appreciation, lol. Why couldn't it stay low 100's so I can afford one sooner! Haha. Just shows you how great of a car it really is.

+1. Pretty much everyone that reviewed the car or had their 2 cents to share, say it's epic. Even TopGear and we all know how much they hate American cars. Just an amazing piece of machinery.

I think CGT+FGT > Everything Else. Comparing Apples to Oranges. Different price range, different sized motor, etc. I don't think 1 is better than the other, but we can all agree they are both epic.

And Hell Yes. Let's turn this into a FGT thread haha. EFF Lamborghini lol. J/K!

This is so sad! Lamborghini was one of the last manufactures that kept the manual alive in the supercar world...I guess Koenigsegg and Pagani are now the only brands that still offer the awesome manual...

Yes they offer the DCT but you can still order a manual transmission.

BTW: Porsche brings back the good ol´ manual in the next 911 with a 7 speed (!) manual...
