Strange?

Some people have been getting GT's with the V6 medallion on the back, so I imagine there has been some mix-up going on at the plant. Whoops.

 

[HobieDude16]

hahaha, thats great, bet ford's gonna love that when they figure it out...

 

[RandyB]

Heck, they will probably try to sell it as a GT.

 

[Enfynet]

I won't complain if I accidently get the V6 badge on the back of my GT :-D

 

[HobieDude16]

heh, if they can pull that off with that 6 banger under the hood... id be impressed!

At least the v6 wheels look better than the last gen ones. Although the gt wheels I have seen look like ***.

You should buy that car. It might be worth some money. Don't pay a GT price though.

Uh oh, whats going on at FoMoCo? This is the second time I have heard of mistakes making it out of the shop and into the streets....Better not screw up my order.

you are kidding right?

 

[HobieDude16]

i think he was kidding... and there is no way i could buy it... im a college kid... next summer, i MIGHT get a 99-2000 gt.... ill have a bit of cash from my summer job, but not near enough to get that car new.... not that id want a v6 anyways, sick of my explorer's v6!

I was thinking the same thing. If i bought a new GT, i would swap the V6 running pony emblem on there. I just don't like GT lettering on the car.

I took all the GT emblems off my '03 and put V6 side emblems on.

I kind of like the V6 Pony badge on the back - anyone think there will be a way to change them?

 

[Svtpilot]

I wonder if I could buy a GT and have them accidently put a 6cyl grille on it?

 

[Reimann]

you are kidding right?

I think he was getting at that in the future it might be a collectors item. A V6 that has GT badging from the factory will make it rare and might make it valueable, espically if Ford can say that this mistake was made on vin numbers ### to ###. Then again, he might have been kidding.

 

[MacintoshSE]

Well my cousin call me today and said he saw the same thing at a Chicago Dealership. A V6 with GT badging. Looks like we have alot of Monday morning cars.

Theres a lime green gt here that has the v6 emblem on it....still for sale if you want one that the sales guys have beat the crap out of

Actually, I was semi-kidding. I was thinking about the future and a possible collectors item.
