DAyumm..

While I can't be sure that these cars aren't driven, they should be. And +1 on the Gulf colors.

Driven

interesting line up:
Ford GT, Ford GT, Ford GT, Ford GT, Ford GT, ...mustang convertible. haha

Slick 87

Damn, gotta wonder why so many, and nothing else?

Obviously, the collector has a thing for Ford GTs. I'll speculate that he/she wanted to own more than anyone else - perhaps a Ford dealer's collection?

There are people that I know that will only buy Porsches, nothing else.

I, on the other hand, like to have a variety of automotive and driving experiences, but to each their own.

(not to say I could afford such collections)

The GT was certainly a car done right. It provided impressive looks, performance and was reportedly great to drive. The combination of exotic (the bespoke chassis) and every day (a motor based on the mod-V8s) was pulled off perfectly. It also was taken off the market at it's peak rather than after it had been eclipsed by newer models.

Suspension breakage issues aside?

Switchblade

One of the only Fords I'd own....

That's a Saleen. Can't tell anything else, but I'd guess it's an S281-E. Saleens are pretty rare as Mustangs go. By 2004, there were only 7500 Saleen cars in existence. No idea how many they are up to today but I'd guess some collectors would be willing to pay a big premium for a very low mileage example of the top end of the Saleen line, sure to be the rarest of the Saleens.

I can say that Ford GT's are over-represented at track days around here. There's always one or two showing up at BIR for track days. And they are driven to the track, unlike a lot of the cars that show up. The guy who owns that warehouse appears to have cornered the market for a car owners seem to prefer to drive than park. Never see a Ferrari or Lamborghini at the racetrack but I see them on the street more often than a Ford GT around here.

That door desig still bothers me, otherwise awesome cars. I remember clarkson having issues with his, yet gt500 owners dont seem to have that issue, but then my knowledge on these cars is limited.
