2005 | One-Owner 2,900-Mile Ford GT

The first generation Ford GT was born to celebrate Ford's centennial and simultaneously resurrect its legendary performance racing history. Conceived in 2002, the development of this iconic sports car was spearheaded by Ford's then-Vice President of Design, J Mays. The design took inspiration from the historic Ford GT40, the legendary race car that achieved an impressive four consecutive wins at Le Mans from 1966 to 1969, defying Ferrari's dominance. The team aimed not just to echo the GT40's aesthetic appeal but to craft a modern supercar that could stir the souls of car enthusiasts and honor the original's legacy. By mid-2003, a concept version had been unveiled, stunning the public with its faithful yet fresh reinterpretation of the GT40's timeless design.

Manufacture of the first generation Ford GT commenced in 2004, with the first deliveries taking place the same year. The car was engineered to be a high-performance machine and a road-legal sports car, a dual character that required an exquisite balance of power, handling, and aerodynamics. It featured a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 engine, which produced an impressive 550 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. Crafted with an aluminum body and equipped with a sophisticated suspension system, the GT was a showcase of Ford's advanced technology and commitment to driving excellence. Its production, however, was limited; over two years, only around 4,000 units were built, making it an instant classic. The GT's blend of performance and exclusivity solidified its place in the pantheon of great American sports cars.

The 2005 Ford GT offered here shows just under 3k miles on the clock and has remained with one owner since new; its exceptional condition is a testament to the owner's meticulous care. It is finished in blue with optional white racing stripes over an black leather interior for a fresh take on the iconic and well-known GT color combination. Outside, the optional lightweight forged aluminum wheels are complemented by gray-painted brake calipers mounted over the massive ventilated and cross-drilled rotors. Inside the sleek rocket ship interior, bolstered sport seats trimmed in black leather ensure the occupants stay firmly put even at breakneck speeds while the optional McIntosh sound system provides seamless entertainment. Rarely does a first-generation example of this caliber present itself, and this example checks every box for the discerning collector. The car is now offered with a clean Carfax report, a third-party inspection report, and a clean title.
