During my visit to the dr. office. I was reading up on some MotorTrend stuff. Saw this cool experience in there. I would definitely love to do this. $1,295 is the price to drive 5 cars. Not sure of all the details, but to take a passenger it's only anothr $250. Something some of you may want to check out also. Drive 5 lux exotic cars

Sounds interesting, but I don't have that kind of money, and if I did, I would have spent it on MY car. lol Plus, I still need to learn how to drive a stick... >.<

Bwaha.

I wonder if they ask you if you can drive stick before they stick you in one (pun not intended)? I could see the groan and crunch from the Ford GT right now. They'd probably put you in one of the paddle-shift Ferraris. Anyway, my opinion is to find some rich friends and go nuts. The cost is too much for what they want and I bet they won't let you do a high speed run on the interstate either.

[/b]Nah, those cars are too fast for police chases to be any fun...you need something like a GTO or Shelby GT500 or something to have a good time in a police chase.

Yeah, like that.
That's the GT with like 27 miles on it. The guy crashed it on his way home from buying it because he decided to open her up on a twisty New England road.
Nooooooob. Bet that damaged his ego.
He's lucky he crashed into that lone pole rather than driving it off the bridge.

wonder what the total-loss threshold is at for a car like that? Even with the airbags deployed, I bet it would take an act of Congress to total that car.

It depends. They're a limited run, I bet only a few people can work on them, and you know Ford has jacked up replacement part price. Those cars actually sell for more than they list.
One day I will own a GT40 kit car. It is my dream car... I just can't afford a real one. The Ford GT isn't really true to the original anyway.
