Few American performance cars have achieved the iconic status of the Ford GT.
Created to celebrate the centenary of the Ford Motor Company and honour the legendary GT40 that conquered the 24 Hours of Le Mans during the 1960s, the 2005–2006 Ford GT combined unmistakable heritage with modern engineering to create one of the most celebrated supercars of its generation.
The example offered here is an exceptionally preserved 2006 model.
Finished in Mark II Black Clearcoat over an Ebony Black leather interior, this low-mileage Ford GT has covered just 5,096 miles from new and combines its original supercharged V8, six-speed manual gearbox and highly desirable specification in one of the most timeless colour combinations available.
For collectors seeking one of America’s greatest modern supercars, few opportunities are more compelling.
Inspired by the Legendary GT40
The Ford GT was far more than a retro-inspired sports car.
Its design paid direct tribute to the GT40 that famously defeated Ferrari at Le Mans four consecutive times between 1966 and 1969, while incorporating contemporary engineering and technology throughout.
The low roofline, flying buttresses, circular taillights and dramatic side air intakes all reference the original racing icon, yet the proportions remain unmistakably modern.
Unlike many heritage-inspired models, the Ford GT successfully balanced historical authenticity with everyday usability, becoming one of the defining American supercars of the twenty-first century.
Today it remains one of Ford’s most collectible performance models.
Supercharged V8 Performance
Mounted behind the driver sits Ford’s legendary 5.4-litre supercharged DOHC V8, producing 550 horsepower and delivering immense torque across the rev range.
Unlike many modern supercars equipped with paddle-shift gearboxes, the Ford GT retains a traditional six-speed manual Ricardo transaxle, offering a level of mechanical engagement that has become increasingly rare.
Performance highlights include:
- 5.4-Liter Supercharged DOHC V8
- 550 Horsepower
- Six-Speed Manual Ricardo Transaxle
- Rear-Wheel Drive
- Limited-Slip Differential
- 0–60 mph in approximately 3.5 seconds
- Top Speed exceeding 205 mph
The combination of abundant supercharged power, manual transmission and analogue driving dynamics continues to make the Ford GT one of the most rewarding performance cars of its era.
A Purposeful Driver-Focused Interior
The cabin reflects the Ford GT’s philosophy of combining race-inspired performance with grand touring comfort.
Finished in Ebony Black leather, the interior features supportive carbon fibre leather-trimmed sports seats and a driver-oriented cockpit inspired by the original GT40.
A leather-wrapped steering wheel, alloy gear selector and exposed aluminium details reinforce the car’s purposeful character, while modern conveniences including air conditioning, power windows, keyless access and a premium McIntosh audio system make the GT equally enjoyable on longer journeys.
This example also features push-button start, HID headlights and a leather-trimmed dashboard, creating a cockpit that remains both functional and timeless nearly two decades after production.
A Beautifully Preserved Example
This 2006 Ford GT benefits from an exceptionally attractive specification.
The Mark II Black Clearcoat finish is complemented by painted racing stripes and distinctive FORD GT side graphics, creating an understated yet unmistakable appearance.
Lightweight forged BBS alloy wheels, Brembo braking system, full aerodynamic package and stainless-steel dual exhaust further enhance the car’s performance credentials.
Having covered only 5,096 miles, this beautifully preserved example remains remarkably original and is accompanied by a clean CARFAX history, making it an outstanding opportunity for collectors seeking one of the finest American supercars of the modern era.
One of America’s Greatest Modern Collectibles
Production of the first-generation Ford GT was limited to just over 4,000 examples across two model years, with demand continuing to grow among collectors worldwide.
Its direct connection to the Le Mans-winning GT40, analogue driving experience and manual transmission have helped establish the model as one of the most desirable American performance cars ever produced.
Beautifully presented, exceptionally well preserved and finished in one of the GT’s most elegant factory colour combinations, this 2006 Ford GT represents a superb addition to any serious collector’s garage.
