Just saw my first Carrera GT

And it was filthy dirty! This is the first time I have seen one on the road. Man I would keep that thing so clean and shiney you could comb your hair in it. Some people just have too much money. it was still sweet to see one that was on the street.

Dirty? Well, at least it sounds like it is actually being used!

I drove past a Carrera GT parked in Madison, WI on the capitol square. I'm not sure what was more beautiful, the GT, or the spring flowers in bloom. Okay, who am I kidding - the GT all the way.

I'm saving my cash to buy this car someday. Wisconsin sports cars usually are clean and with low miles. So if the owner is a Pelican, save this link and contact me when you are ready to sell!!

Ok I know it should be driven and I do appreciate the fact that it WAS actually dirty because of that...just jealous I guess. Made my old S look like a beetle.

I saw my first one in local shop after backing into the tire wall at VIR. Got the lowdown on some of the replacement parts prices. Lets just say that the rear bumper cover was about as much as a G50 Carrara and a pair of the LED taillights would get you a 993 engine.
