That would be Amanda Gillespie. From memory, that car was about #14.
Replying to... "I thought I read somewhere that the first person to take public ownership of a BA GT was a women who purchased a Citric Acid one with black stripes. Obviously I was wrong. Is it worth more than another BAGT I'm not sure. It may do to a collector but I wouldn't imagine we aren't talking big money at this early stage. It may however make the car more desirable to someone who is looking for an 03 GT anyway, being a little more special in terms of history. The last Monaro was a bit different to this senario. The last Monaro is likely to be the last 'Aussie' built Monaro for a very long time. The last BA GT was simply the last of a model cycle but a new model has followed. " |

FPV via the official blueprint magazine say 0003 is the first FPV vehicle ever shipped - in the world. who cares where the rest come from, this is the first ever shipped, has to be a unique car.

Not sure what all you people are on about, all the person wanted was suggestions on the best way to sell the car.

Here is the proof that it was the first FPV ever shipped it is listed in the milestone events for Ford and FPV. All I have been asking is, has anyone got any ideas how to get this car a good home.

I'd stick with early responses, and auction. Either online (eBay) or "real life" .. eg. Shannons, etc. The "real life" auction will keep the morons and professional hagglers away .. unlike a private sale. |

Best way to get it gone is to get it on Carsales, Carpoint & park it somewhere with a sign on it. I don't usually reccomend Carsales but I would imagine that just about anyone looking for a used FPV would look there. It's where I got mine! |

Gregory's also had a Blueprint P# numbered GT which was used as a journo test car, had a few things different inside like the cluster. They were trying to get too much for it I think, don't know what eventually happened to it but they got it from an internal Ford dealer auction. If you think your car is special and worth more for a reason, a decent auction house is the way to go, where the collectors go to find good cars and they can talk it up properly for you.

I think it was Tony Chesterman who told me that David's car was going to be Blood Orange but he changed his mind after seeing the silver with orange stripes. Geoff Polites had GTP build no 1. |

I can't recall any GT of old attracting a premium price because it was the first public one sold. I have a one off build 2003 BA GT. Its uniqueness doesn't necessarily add to its value, it may only help it sell more easily.

yes i know its an old thread but I have seen GT-0003 forsale and its not red, its Vibe! its not very original as its got FG decals and aftermarket rims but they still want top dollar for it
trying to work out if its real or a fake as I think Vibe came out later in the production run.

Hi, If you have a look on the Introduction page under the heading Milestone Events there is mention of first GT shipped from FPV with the sido number and date. I still think this is in issue one. I think this may be my car.
