1FAFP90S25Y400006 - The dealership is selling this 2005 Ford GT that had many visible as well as hidden issues. Had I not done a $500 PPI (pre purchase inspection) I am fairly certain none of the issues would have been described. Dealers' jobs are to sell cars, I get that, but knowingly selling a car with severe issues is yet another. After they picked up the car from my disastrous review, which was done by Fred Ficken Ford nearby, the car went right back up for sale. Why am I writing this? If someone searches this vin number, hopefully they will order a PPI and know NOT to buy this car. Issues? Brakes are shot, rotors are cracking, shocks are gone, shocks are not original to the car, tranmission may have been dropped from the car, undercarriage damage, all 4 wheels need to be replaced, not reprayed, but replaced (which is very hard to source), tires are from 2008 and need to be replaced, CLUTCH IS SHOT, and a host of other issues. The mechanic reported paint work on rear bumper as well as burn marks on body paint from "buffing" issues. The doors do not line up on either side of the car and stripes are off for this reason when viewing from the side. Interior has damage on console as well as "odd damage consistent with possibly removing the seats" as the car is believed to have been heavily tracked. This car will take $50,000 just to make is driveable but it is unlikely to be original and after all the above, 1/3 of the car will need to be replaced. Clutch is so bad and slipping is happening already, it is about a $10,000-15,000 job to replace the clutch and re-assemble it. Hopefull you are reading this. McLaren Charlotte was very nice, and delivered the car for its PPI the day after I called - but the car is a disaster and nobody should entertain buying it without knowing the above. The above are FACTS, not conjecture, supported in the PPI.
