Numbering in the millions, they are recognizable to just about everyone. For motorsport fans or those familiar with Ford's racing heritage, however, there is an equally iconic 'halo' model that best represents the technological capabilities of the marque: the legendary Ford GT40 and its modern supercar counterpart, the Ford GT. Arriving in prototype form just in time for Ford's centennial celebration in 2003, the Ford GT went into production in 2004 as the modern, road-going interpretation of the GT40 endurance racing car, famously known for beating Ferrari four times in a row at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the late 1960's. The ultra-high performance Ford GT showcases the finest in advanced technologies, constructed on a lightweight aluminum chassis clothed in superplastic-formed lightweight composite and aluminum body panels, powered by a mid-mounted supercharged quad-cam 550bhp V8 engine mated to a 6-speed manual transaxle, and featuring racing derived suspension and braking systems. With vicious performance on tap, the Ford GT will accelerate from 0-60 in about 3.5 seconds, and march on to some 205mph before the speed limiter kicks in. When production ceased in 2006, with just over 4,000 Ford GTs produced, the epic Ford had made its mark on automotive history once again - and became an instant blue chip collector's car. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED Even though the first Ford GT is hardly 15 years old today, it is increasingly difficult to find a car that has been in the same hands since new. Presented here is a true one-owner Ford GT with less than 1,800 miles from new. Hand-built at the state of the art, designated Romeo Niche production line, the 555th Ford GT offered here was completed in January of 2005. The sensational new GT was finished as it appears today in Classic White with the optional painted blue Shelby racing stripes, with a sporty black leather interior fitted inside. It was equipped with the optional lightweight forged aluminum wheels, and an the premium McIntosh Audiophile system with CD player. This 'showroom-fresh' Ford GT has been carefully stored during the past decade, accruing just 1,788 miles at the time of cataloging. The CARFAX report on file documents the mileage, as well as service and maintenance performed at authorized Ford service centers. In August of 2019, the airbag recall was performed by Ford of Oxnard, California, ensuring the potent Supercar is fully up to date. Offered with its factory owner's manual and other original accessories, it will be hard to find a better kept example of the Ford GT. With its Supercharged, all-alloy dual overhead cam V8 engine mounted mid-ship, sleek 6-speed Manual transaxle, and cool retro yet timeless looks; the Ford GT just has it all. Already considered among the finest collector's motorcars, one can just imagine what kind of attention this modern supercar will command in a few decades time.
