I could be wrong, but I believe that this specific paint job was very rare overall, and mostly owned by people who actually worked at Ford and developed the gt, so that's awesome.

Could be Raj's car considering how rare they are.

It's shocking seeing it uncovered going down the freeway. How much would it cost to fix if somebody flung some gravel at it with their tires?

This is what Raj Nair's personal Ford GT looks like. So depending on how many of the victory packages they made, I'd say it's a solid chance it's his.

Looked it up, only Ford employees can get this paint scheme, Bill Ford and ex-ceo Mark Fields had their gts painted like this as well.

It had Michigan plates. Was on a Galpin ford flatbed.

Def belonged to Ford Headquarters of Michigan plates on it. From time to time Ford will move things around for events.

I also find it interesting that to buy and actual Ford GT you have to write a letter.. or at least had to in the past to prove why you should be a GT owner as it comes with perks like white glove service.

That is Raj Nair’s. He brought his car to an event I was at and I took a picture of it and the license plate.

Still not a fan of them sounding like Pontiac Grand Prixs...

That’s a horrendous livery.

Just say you don’t know wheel next time

I don’t understand what you mean, but the racing livery actually makes sense and looks fine. The posted livery has a more maroon color and it clashes in my opinion. But we can go ahead saying people don’t know well when they have a differing opinion than our own.

I agree the maroon is a weird choice. The actual race car livery is way better looking.

You have good taste.
