I am not worried about driving it as it you have your head screwed on straight and respect the danger and keep yourself within your limits I believe you will be fine. Not so for the idiots that think they are Mario Andretti when never driven a HP super car.

I have heard about the high amt that have been wrecked and "fixed" and that is my biggest concern to find a clean honest car that I can hopefully enjoy( although it may mean giving up my Eleanor and another car to even get close. If I am lucky enough to,own one I want one Unmodified( unless bolt on) white/blue or the reverse color or the Gulf livery
Cheers!
From memory, I believe the most recent issue of Keith Martin's Sport Market mentioned that the white/blue stripe is rare, maybe the rarest, besides no stripes? The GT owners here probably know the color/stripe breakdown off the top of their heads. I also prefer the white/blue stripes FGT's.

I'd have to buy one to drive at least 500-1000 miles/year and not sit in a wrapper in the garage like legenmetals.

Also, according to Sports Car Market, the FGT's have had such a run-up in prices, a bit like the air-cooled Porsches, that they predicted a leveling off. But they're certainly not going to be decreasing alot, if at all. Go buy one!

Beautiful cars!
