In the Sixties, Ford created the GT40 as a form of payback following a slight by Enzo Ferrari. Ford was all set to purchase Ferrari when Ferrari pulled out of the deal over a tussle as to who would control the racing team. Miffed by this, and having sunk money on audits and related activities, Ford vowed to build a car that would beat Ferrari at his home turf on the racing field, Le Mans. This resulted in the birth of the GT40. After a rocky start, Carroll Shelby was brought in, and the project ultimately yielded Ford four consecutive Le Mans wins, in 1966, 1967, 1968 and 1969, and delivering cold revenge to Enzo Ferrari. In 2004, Ford decided to build a limited run of Ford GTs as a nod to this legendary Sixties racer. Only 4,038 were produced, making this 2005 Ford GT a rare find, more so given that it’s only got 2,800 miles on its odometer. Two keys, the owner’s manual and books are included in the sale of this car.
There were only four options that were offered on this generation of Ford GT, namely the choice of wheels, stripes, painted brake calipers and a radio. This 2005 Ford GT has all four options, and looks very classy with its Centennial White clearcoat punctuated by black stripes. Whilst modern crash regulations mean that this GT is not 40 inches tall unlike its Sixties ancestor, it’s less than 10% taller, at just 43 inches. Out back, the twin tailpipes take center stage on the rear valance. It’s rare for a modern car to be so closely designed to one that inspired it four decades ago owing to modern crash regulations and stipulations, and yet Ford was able to pull it off! Take a few moments and gaze at the beautiful lines you see in the pictures. Doesn’t it increase your desire for this car? The car has been recently ceramic coated for added durability and a car cover is included in the sale. The interior is in Ebony Black, and is a tasteful meeting of retro and modern. You get a modern steering wheel with airbag too, a beautifully billet-machined gear knob and the aforementioned radio which is a relatively modern unit. Another surprise, this machine has a full ventilation system with heating and air conditioning.
This 2005 Ford GT is powered by Ford’s 5.4L Modular V8 engine that’s longitudinally mounted just behind the two seats and is fed by Eaton 2300 screw-type supercharger. This enables a power output of 550hp and 500lb-ft, sent to the rear wheels via a Ricardo six-speed manual transmission with helical limited slip differential. Performance figures are zero to sixty in just 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 205mph. This car received a full service in mid-2021.
