I have an 06 GT and wanted one with less than 500 miles, that is what I got and love the car.  If I had to do over again I would look for one with more miles, say under 30K.  Don't think I'd be seeking for a car with stories, accident history etc.

My 06 GT has just under 20k miles on it.  I bought it with 17k miles and drove it from Vegas to my home in Alberta, Canada.   It was a fantastic 20 hour drive home.

I specifically wanted a car that had some miles on it so I could drive it without feeling guilty about adding a bunch of miles.  I also wanted a car with some miles on it so I wouldn't take a big depreciation hit by buying a low mile car and subsequently adding a bunch of miles.  I buy my cars to drive them.

Well, I started this post over a year ago and it took me about that long to find the perfect car, I really wanted a midnight blue Ford GT to go with my Nightmist blue /parchment, 67 GT500 (also a multi year search) & a blue Gt seemed to be the hardest color to get ,I literally looked at every GT that came to market in the last year & there a lot of them, literally a couple a week on BAT.But there were just no blue ones, i joined the GT forum and actually made a post on there and someone reached out that had a minty fresh low mileage one owner, four option ,Midnight blue one ,so now I've got the perfect Ford pair.

Those cars are beautiful pieces of art.  Blue is a choice color and especially on your Ford GT.

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

I am fortunate enough to have four.

I would consider a older Shelby, but the later ones? Too many! Bat everyday car!
