I was just looking at two '06 Ford GT's at the local auto museum, no miles
and bought for $112K each, now worth some crazy amount. Movie looks good,
can't wait!

was such a character honestly I’m not sure how you could even exaggerate
him.

My concern is more about the truth of the people and events. Rush was

very

well done. Some others not so much.
I recently watched 2, two hour TV automotive specials that were, to be

kind,

both rubbish! The one on Muscle Cars had so many blatant errors I should

have

known not to watch the second. Things like talking about the early days

of

performance Pontiacs while showing the image of an Oldsmobile. Or

explaining

the second 4 in the Olds 442 stood for four speed transmission but,

showing

the image of a console with, you guessed it, an automatic. Talking about

the

Pony Cars in the then new Trans-Am racing series but leaving out,

Firebird,

AMX and Cougar. Does no one proof these shows?
Oh, oh… How about the story that Richard Petty designed the Superbird on

a

napkin? When asked about aero testing his reply was: That’s why we take
‘em to the track! Hey, never mind that its older brother, the Dodge

Charger

Daytona, was raced a full year before the Superbird or Richard’s return

to

Plymouth were known about.
And don’t get me started on what they said about the Ford GT 40!!!!
Why would I want to pay extra for a channel that produces crap like this?
