just read in a magazine that there will be a total of just 3 Ford GT's available for 2003, right around $125,000 each. If anyone can verify or elaborate, please do.

Yea, its true... I reserved mine (2nd of 3) with a down payment of 80,000

really, I have no idea, but if it is I guess Ill never see one on the road.

 

I don't know about the price (sound about right anyways) but the production #'s for 03 are right on the dot. There will only be 3 made for 2003. But from there on, i think Ford plans on building close to a thousand units a year.

 

Will they have any special performance package or just limitted production?

 

3 cars for one year? You gotta be kidding. Why are they even gonna make it? I mean sure it's gonna be an instant collector car but who cares. If I was a Ford fan, and I had $125,000 in the bank wanting to buy one, I'd be pissed.

Of course, I'm neither!

 

3 cars for 2003, just so they're at least out there.

Then every year after that 1000 cars.

Everyone seemed to miss that part.

 

I just read in Car Craft that the guy who owns the rights to "GT-40" wanted to charge a poo-load for Ford to use it, so that's the reason Ford changed it to "GT"; is that what others have heard?

 

Yah, I just read in a magazine that Ford offered the guy about 1 million, and a COUPLE of the new GT's, but he wanted something like 40 million.

 

They are coinceiding it with an aniversary...Ford's 100 year?? GT-40 aniversary or something like that, not sure which though....

 

The ONLY reason there are ANY for 2003 is because of Ford's 100th anniversairy. Otherwise, they all would be 2004s.
