The Ford GT began as a concept car designed in anticipation of Ford's centennial year and as part of its drive to showcase and revive its "heritage" names such as Mustang and Thunderbird. Why am I telling you this?

One man located in Kansas City (Mission Hills/Prairie Village) waited 2 years for this $200,000 car.

He had this car only two days and had only put 9 miles on it.

He decided to try out how fast it would go- and decided to punch the gas pedal. When he did… he lost traction on the rear wheel and lost control on a bridge next to golf hole #17 at a major country club (Mission Hills Country Club) which crosses a small creek.

the headlights look fine just that hood and bumper needs to be replaced


but on a car like that.. I think it'll run him about 20k+


cause I was at a shop and they was talkin about how someone got clipped in they lambo and the other person had to come 5k out the pocket for one little carbon fiber piece

I'd be so pissed that I would go numb for a few days after the accident and wouldn't be able to be angry at it. He probably laughed about it after the accident happened because it just didn't seem real to him at the moment. It probably took some time for what really happen to hit him and make him realize that his car is really fucked up.

If he got it at 23, I'm sure he can get another
