Yes. A Ford GT Heritage Edition left outside in the snow together with a BMW Z4 sDrive35i. Sure made me wonder what was hiding in the garage that was so much more special than the two unlucky sports cars outside.
For those wondering where in the world supercars are so mistreated, well... Toronto. Specifically, the Bridal Walk area in Bayview. Surprised? You shouldn't be. The cars were probably happier to be freezing than to be driven across the pothole ridden streets of the GTA.

As long as the cars aren't being driven snow is not a big deal. It's the copious amounts of salt that they throw down on the roads that's the problem. But yeah, a two car canopy for the outside cars would be nice.

What's wrong with people? I too wonder what could be in the garage more special than that GT. That's unbelievable. I may cry.

I was looking for the gif of the angry mob from Frankenstein, but I only got as far as Teri Garr. Why yes, Inga, I would love a roll in the hay.

Leaving these parked outside is just not OK on principle alone. If I had this car it would go inside after every trip I make with it.

And I'm sure you murder a baby kitten every time TaxTheRich100 puts out a new video on youtube...
What principle is it that you are referring to? It's a car, not the wild wild witch of the west, it won't melt if gets a little wet. The chassis and body panels are aluminium anyway, so in the off chance there was some exposed metal it's not as if it would even rust....

I have only the vaguest understanding of what tax the rich is...
I would park it inside on principle alone, that car deserves to be garaged. Just because it won't rust doesn't mean being out in the cold is doing it any favors. On top of that there is hail, falling trees, zombie apocalypses, natural disasters and many other things that could harm it. This is a VERY VERY valuable collectors car and while it SHOULD be driven, it SHOULD be protected as much as possible when it's parked.
I would argue this car is a piece of history given its story.

I hope it's getting DD'ed all year round. Like someone else on here has already said, the car is all-aluminum, it's not going to rot away into nothing. Smoke 'em while you got 'em.

Although Ford GT's are relatively rare, and continually increasing in price... I feel as though you are confusing this with an original GT40? There were 343 of the Heritage Edition model produced and likely the majority of them are still in existence and with very low mileage.

lol at the end of the day it's still a Ford GT of some kind and it deserves to be treated better than this.

Personally, I don't care much for BMW as a whole. I can respect and admire some of their cars but none will top the Ford GT

Oh for shizzle. The Ford GT is just more special-er. Although I am quite fond of my little E30 winter beater.

I GIS'd "Ford GT in Garage" or something to that effect. To show Skaycog and everyone else that people do care. :P
