THE FORD GT
In Ford Motor Company's long and hugely successful history, few events are as memorable and as important as the GT40 racing cars' four consecutive overall victories at Le Mans. Stemming from a failed acquisition of Ferrari, an understandably frustrated Ford enlisted Carroll Shelby and others to build a racing car with one mission: to beat Ferrari at Le Mans. With their goals set high, the GT40 became the most iconic and successful underdog in Le Mans history.
Arriving in prototype form just in time for Ford's centennial celebration in 2003, the Ford GT borrowed heavily from the stunning design and profile of the GT40 and set out on a similar mission: to compete with, and surpass, the established supercars.
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, hand-built, supercharged quad-cam 550bhp V8 engine mated to a 6-speed manual transaxle and featuring racing derived suspension and braking systems, the GT avails the driver of astounding performance and power.
With this prolific power, the Ford GT will accelerate from 0-60 in about 3.5 seconds, hurtling 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 collector's car.
THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
This stunning 2006 model year Ford GT is offered in incredible condition with fewer than 14, yes fourteen, total miles since new. The car finished assembly by hand, at the Wixom, MI based Ford plant during October of 2006. This capable American supercar was finished in racy Red and, adding to its desirability, it was specified with desirable four factory options- the luxurious McIntosh stereo system, lightweight alloy rims, red painted calibers and the bold painted 'Shelby-stripes down the center of the car.
A copy of the official original window sticker, along with the original freight bill from Wixom, MI, reveals that the rare and hard to get Supercar was sold new at Spuceland Ford Sales, LTD in Whitecourt, Alberta, Canada to Ken Adams. Stored in a climate controlled garage from new, according to the CARFAX issued for this car, it remained in Alberta for the first decade of its life. The Ford GT was acquired by the current owner in 2016 with a reported 6.5 miles on the clock. Covering only about double that much mileage in the last two years, this practically brand-new GT is ready join a new garage—maybe next to another brand-new (albeit 2018) GT.
