Any bidders on 2017 ford Gt , or best guesses what it will sell for

also looked at the docket mostly older Porsche’s with the exception of a few one 918 and 16 gt3 RS

Should be interesting event to see where prices end up , they stated that their docket is sold out for entries

The tough thing about all these auctions is the 20% buyer/seller premium which I guess makes ADM more reasonable if the car is worth MSRP or not.

I would guess the 2017 Ford Gt will hit a million quickly. The crowd will go crazy. The bids will slow and it will go for 1.1-1.2

Rick Hendrick buys all the big stuff and gets in fights. I'll say 1.235 for the FGT + fees

I told my wife 2.5 - 3 mil based on the wrestler who tried to flip his for 2 mil. I figured in the alcohol and hubris
i know it’s easy to say after the fact but that’s what I thought

I am looking forward to an interesting/honest review from CJ on the FGT. Analyses are scarce and appear not without bias thus far. I think it is an invigorating design evolution but am unsure that it really translates to the street. The ecoboost is a clear but understandable disappointment in my book. Bottom line, I wouldn't kick it out of the garage given the opportunity. $2.5M NO WAY!

I have read several reviews and so far, its pretty rough on the street. Nice track car but not especially comfortable for like a PCA outing for a couple hours.
Even Car and Driver said the AC controls are out of a outdated taurus. I am paraphrasing. I have read several mags and watched videos on several people
from Jay Leno to nobody guys on youtube who got press passes. The passengers sit too close to each other and its uncomfortable for 2.
But I wouldnt kick it out of my garage either but the consensus was race car on the street. I was mad at Ford, because I could afford the first one, 2004 2005
but at the time I had a 2003 F150 with the triton motor and I spent my money on the 2004 GT3 instead, this one though was completely out of my price range. I don't
understand why the US maker of family sedans couldn't make a sports car that would be mildly affordable to fairly normal Americans. Heck Ford doesn't even make
a Corvette fighter, and they make a half a million dollar sports car instead? I didn't get it. When I saw the commercials I was going to consider it but then I saw the price
a couple years ago which was in the $300k range then ballooned to $550K I think

Private price for the Ford GT seems to be $1.5MM based on the few that've been offered. Haven't heard about any since the Cena issue though, I guess Ford's lawsuit publicity worked lol
