2006 Ford Gt on 2040-cars
Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada
|
Being offered for sale is a true modern day classic 2006 Ford GT painted in the very desirable red with all four options, racing stripes, red calipers, lightweight BBS wheels and the McIntosh stereo. Car comes with the original window sticker, Ford GT duffle bag cover as well a beautiful Covercraft car cover, 2 keys & remotes, manuals, compressor, etc. The car has had two owners (including myself) who have thoroughly enjoyed driving this thrilling car. The car has never been driven on a track, just highway driving. Since new this car has been extremely well maintained by Ford and always stored indoors. This Ford GT is an excellent example showing minimal signs of the 23,946 miles of use. That is only about 3,000 enjoyable (highway) miles year. As the car was meant to be driven, there is 3 M protection on the nose of the car, rocker panels and rear panels behind the rear wheels. You can leave the 3 M protection in place or remove it. I won't go into the details of what a Ford GT is as if you're looking for a Ford GT, you already know about the performance characteristics of the car. The car has had a recent oil change as well as the spark plugs replaced. It also had a very small noise in the transaxle that a potential buyer most likely wouldn't have noticed, but I noticed it. A new transaxle was installed at the Broadway Ford Dealership in Green Bay, Wi on June 16, 2014 and the transaxle carries a 24 month unlimited mileage warranty from that date. A detailed multi-point inspection was performed at the same time. Everything checked out and the inspection form is attached as well as the work order and warranty for the transaxle. All four tires were replaced about 1,500 miles ago. I have an extra set of rear tires for sale for $1,200 U.S. for the pair. The passenger side wheels had some "curb scuffs" on them and I replaced both of them. The old wheels are available at n/c if you want them. The car is in A-1 mechanical condition! Attached is a recent copy of the AutoCheck vehicle history report for the car. There are a few road chips on the paint that has been repaired by a body shop. I've tried to show them in the pictures but it is very hard to see them. I have two new cars coming and have run out of room in my garage. I have thoroughly enjoyed this car but I'm now looking forward to my "new drives". There were just a little over 4,400 of these cars made through 2005/2006 and the prices are really starting to escalate. If you're thinking of purchasing one of these cars, sooner is better than later. The car is priced to sell at $219,000 in U.S. funds. Other than the warranty on the transaxle from Broadway Ford in Green Bay, the vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty expressed or implied. All shipping arrangements and costs associated shipping are the responsibility of the buyer. I encourage any prospective buyers to examine the car prior to purchasing. |

2014 Ford F-150 Tremor adds some sport to shake things up
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Like most quakes, the 2014 Ford F-150 Tremor caught us by surprise. We weren't expecting Ford to offer up another version of its best-seller so soon before the truck's full redesign, but that's exactly what the company is doing.
While Ford calls the Tremor a "performance truck," the new pickup doesn't play on the same level as the SVT Raptor does on dirt, or even the long-gone SVT Lightning did on pavement. Think of it as a parts bin sport truck that probably does a better job looking the part than acting it. The Tremor utilizes the same twin-turbo, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 available across the F-150 lineup, producing 365 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, but matches it with a 4.10 rear axle - the shortest final drive ratio you can get in an F-150 - for the strongest possible acceleration.
The Tremor does do a decent job looking the part. Available only in short-wheelbase, regular cab configuration with your choice of two- or four-wheel drive, it struts around wearing the F-150's FX Appearance Package, flat black accents, 20-inch black wheels, HID headlights and a special exterior graphics package. The Tremor is the only regular cab F-150 with a flow-through center console, which means it also gets a floor-mounted shifter and bucket seats that are covered in black leather with red piping. Some brushed metal accents and steering wheel with red stitching round out the interior upgrades.
Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Hear the 2015 Mustang GT V8 roar for the first time
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Our combined knowledge of the 2015 Ford Mustang continues to deepen, as spy shooters have begun to compile video and audio of the upcoming sixth-generation car.
Case in point is this latest series of video clips, which not only gives us a great vantage point of the Mustang in motion, but also allows us to hear the Ford V8 engine and exhaust. After perusing the aural delights of this short video, which, admittedly, doesn't catch the Mustang GT at full song, we can at least say that the throaty exhaust isn't disappointing.
Chances are good that the 2015 Mustang GT will debut with some version of the current (and excellent) Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine, though we're unclear as to whether or not the motor has been massaged for its next-gen debut, or what may have been done to exhaust plumbing. At this point, we're just happy to hear the pony run. Scroll below to hear for yourself.
