I’m sorry but what’s the point of this post? Wow you want a BF GT-P! So do a lot of people. What’s even more amazing is you found one at a Ford dealer! FWIW it isn’t second hand – it is a demo, note the lack of plates.

This isn't meant to be a insult or anything just, you raised my expectations of seeing an actual awesome FPV.

Now you've just broken my heart, my achy breaky heart.

Nice colour combo. I would love a black FPV, I just don't want to keep cleaning one.

Do they usually have the GT-P badge on the front fender under the indicator? I don't think I've seen that before...

Actual story,

It is a 2006 auto with leather. Second hand, prev owner buys a new one each year. (lucky bastard).

6000km mostly highway.

Original owner in a local up here. First one was blood, second was envi, current is ego.

Reason for no plates is that he has a personalised plate that he fits to all his cars and as it is 1 year old the rego has run out. Why waste rego while it is in the car yard?

$62k is the magic number but if you are fairdinkum and have no trade things are more fluid. PM me if you are REALLY interested.

Unfortunately $40K won't even quite buy a new BF2 XR6 let alone a near new GT-P...

Don't give up dreaming though ! I know I won't anytime soon :sm_drool:
