keeping this thread active in order to potentially boost ticket sales sounds like a good idea to me.  and so, in an effort to do just that, i pose a question/challenge to all those who have purchased a ticket:

question - where is the first place you would go if you won?
challenge - if you do win (think positive !), you must travel to this place, take a pic, and post it on the forums.

If I won, the first place I'd go would be the bathroom, because I'd probably sh$t my pants!

The GT500 would go nowhere but the garage. at least right away.

Now...how about my current 07 gt vert?  That would be on it's way to the local Honda dealer for trade-in on an S2000.

One hell of a road trip from Illinois (the location of the raffle) back home to Los Angeles... on Route 66. Can't think of a better way to break it in.

What would the tax be based on... the sticker price?... or the actual value?

Good question.  While most GT500’s are still being sold over sticker, I think you could make an argument that the tax should be on the sticker price, as I am sure there are a few GT500’s that sold for sticker.

+ 1. Although, there should be some kind of legal paperwork stating the value of the car to back all this up. If the car was donated by the dealership, they would have to state the value (could be the $43K sticker, could be $60K). Same if the car was bought by the charity.

I'll do it when I get my tax return.  Even if I don't win, that's money I can claim on my taxes.

Wow, the Grand Canyon... Illinois to LA on Rt66... both sound like great trips.
 
If I am lucky enough to win I will go to the travel agent so my son and I can fly to Chicago to pick up the car, then we will take turns driving it on the trip home together!! 
And it is likely we will take the long way home as Chicago to Pittsburgh is only about 8 hours (even less in a GT500) and I will want the experience to last a lot longer than that!

This post is now over 1000 hits.  If everyone that looked at it bought just 1 ticket, they would almost be done selling tickets by now.   Lets keep this post active so people see it.  This board is so active that posts fall off very fast.

Well, the charity is now one ticket closer to 600.  I just bought one ticket, to which my son kicked in half the price.  That means if I win I have to share it with him!  BTW, my ticket number was just slightly higher than 150, so they are getting closer but have a ways to go.

Yeah, I bought mine a while ago and it was only in the 40 - 50 range.

I would have to say my first trip in it would be home from Illinois to south Eastern Michigan all the way around Lake Michigan! I will send pictures of it on I-75 heading south on the Mackinaw Bridge for everyone when I win!!!

I would have to take a friend along who would drive my Steeda for me! Man that will be some trip!!!!

Man, I am sporting some serious wood thinking about owning 2 of these monsters!!! I will even make space in my garage for her!

This summer I am having a big shed built in my back yard for all the garage stuff and kids toys. Then I am putting cabinets up, carpeting the floor and painting the walls. Then adding a Kegernator and some wall decor! Boy 2 Mustangs would just make life perfect!!! especially a GT500 that I won!!!

Wow, it is fun to dream!!!
