Not sure if anyone has posted this already,
Dick Johnson is selling his own GTF on car sales. Anyone got a spare $150K? |

He's still got fans. He could drive.
pre-tree, one of the best laps I've seen around Bathurst. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpNqdpVebMY Should have been ESP instead of GTF. |

This one of him wrestling the Sierra around the mountain in 1992 would have to be one of the best though, absolutely wrings it's neck- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zgIwRpKNCY edit: If I had $150k I'd buy that car tomorrow. Maybe after I check my Powerball ticket...

That was an awesome drive until that last corner fopar(almost brings a tear to the eye watching it),
dick was on the ragged edge, can only imagine what his lap time would have been, and the old clevo at the red line ........ frigging grouse !. |

Hmm seems like we have our first GTF for sale under 100k (well kind of) $99,999.

I guess in the stable of cars he's got there this GT-F is what he 'values'the least. Doesn't say much for the car.

I'd certainly say the other ones with race pedigree steeped all over them would be more desirable to a collector, which is his target audience in the advert.
A car that he's never registered, or even driven doesn't really mean much. I think the GTF him and John tore up NT in would stand to appreciate more based on whose 'used' it. |

Probaby reflects Ford's support of Touring Cars/V8 Supercars will now be reflected in his support of their product (ie, not).

It doesn’t matter if it was gratis, if it’s an unwanted gift or he wants to make a bit of money or he’s desperate for a cash injection we’d all do the same thing. Even better if it cost nothing to start with, more cash in the pocket. And to price it at $150k is just testing the market like everyone else. And those who gifted it too him would most likely be just as happy to know its helped him in a time of need. He's not the first racer to sell his cars and won't be the last. It’s not like you could ever accuse him of being anti-ford just because he’s selling a car we’d all love to have in our garage. Good luck to him and I hope better times come his way. |

Steven Johnson was declared bankrupt earlier this year but haven't heard the same about Dick.

Damn, no kidding. I smell something fishy.... all of them seem to be of different cars. Some pictures are of a GTF with plates and some without.
