And I don't not like them because of their business practices, I don't like them because they are poorly organized, dirty, have horrible customer service, and usually have the worlds "brightest" people about them. needless to say, I don't like them that much. Also Target is a lot closer than Wall-mart anyway.
oooh alright Dr.Seuss "i do not like Wal-Mart Cab i am"

It was the GT, not the GT40 (I think so..the GT is the new, the GT40 is the old right?). It could have been a fake GT I suppose since I've never seen one before in person. I imagine they have replicas? It sounded badass and looked badass.

Yea just this weekend I saw a bentley gt outside of walmart. I've also seen gt2's and an Audi S8. I know rich people that shop in garage sales and thrift stores also. Everyone needs to get as much as they can for their buck I guess

Ya they made a racing GT40 and also a production GT40 way back in the day. The real ones that are still around i imagine are VERY valuable and hard to come by. There are probably a couple dozen companies that make cheaper replicas though.

The Ford GT has the same looks but is like 30 years newer, definitly BA, I was just curious if you had seen the antique/collectors one or the new ford supercar one

MSRP was only $140,000, not totally unattainable....

Is that all? I've heard they're going for much higher though. I don't think the make them anymore?

current bid on this one is ONLY $131k. I could sell my A4 and still not pay for the sales tax!:
