It's been at the installers for 7 of those months and I've racked up 8k just yesterday. Granted I live in a place where I can drive 11 months of the year but still. I don't do shows 'cause I'd rather drive it. Please tell me. The ONLY reason I can see is "I'll be driving my new GT40 that I may purchase soon)". 209

Same thing with the Ford GTs. People in 2005 and 2006 were buying these for close to 200K and most of them seem to have less than 5000 miles and frequently under 1000, with a fair number in the less than 500. Especially true of the Heritage (Gulf Oil color) cars.
Many of them have not even had the TSBs performed and the primary one (axle bolts) are no longer available from Ford.
