Tungsten was the highest produced because a) Ford marketed it as a limited edition in honor of the Le Mans anniversary and dealers used their allocations on it without ever asking a customer and b) it's the color most likely to be bought by people who bought it as an alternative to a Ferrari or Lambo. People constantly request that I find them cars, and in two years I've never once been asked to find Tungsten.

175k is about right, or marginally more.
ok

you win

so, I guess it was a fluke that one of the largest FGT dealers gave me 173k for my 400 mile car 6 months ago when the market was not near as good now.

Again, if you find cars for people, I'll take a new Tungsten for 175k today, tomorrow or whenever you find me one. Cash waiting.
