There's been one sitting in the Ted Russell dealership showroom off Parkside Dr. in Knoxville TN forever. They have it marked up to $300,000. I'm guessing that is why. Every time I go there I admire the car from afar, then look at the window sticker, laugh for a bit, then walk away.

Laugh now, they already have sold for that much and will continue to go up a little more and level off...

these are the exact tires mounted on the car.

500 on a CHEAP tire site, now imagine dealer markup. :beer:


Ford GT




The rear tires for the GT are a whopping 315 factory. If the Italia tires were wider (they're a 295/35/20 from what i'm reading) they'll jump another $100.

Yes but those are for the crappy goodyears which make half of these cars go into the ditch and become salvaged...they are a trash tire and should not of even been placed near the car let alone on it. We pick up new ones on ebay and from other GT owners for 3-500 for the pair...600 each is outrageous for a shotty tire that wears out unevenly and rather quickly.

Again i'm not arguing semantics, merely stating that the goodyear (factory tires) are 600 apiece.

oh no thats fine me either, i know many people who own the GT's want them to stay OEM and collector status and will buy the new Goodyear tires all day long, and then there is side x who has money doesn't car and will twin turbo and ruin the car. So it goes both ways.

oh yeah absolutely. :beer:

I believe the tires were being put on because the car was going to a new owner, so they wanted it as OE as possible.
