This 2006 Ford GT is one of 2,011 produced for the model year and is finished in Mark IV Red over Ebony leather. It now shows 57 miles and is optioned with forged aluminum wheels and red calipers. A mid-mounted and supercharged 5.4L V8 drives the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle equipped with a limited-slip differential. The first-generation Ford GT was designed as an homage to the Le Mans-winning GT40 race cars of the 1960s. A two-year production run from 2005 to 2006 saw 4,038 examples built, each featuring an extruded aluminum spaceframe, roll-bonded floor panels, and superplastic-formed aluminum body panels. Standard aerodynamic elements include a front splitter, rear lip spoiler, rear diffuser, side skirts, and an enclosed underbody with venturi tunnels.



Optional forged aluminum wheels made by BBS measure 18” in diameter up front and 19”. The Brembo brake system utilizes four-piston monoblock calipers with an optional red finish, along with cross-drilled and ventilated rotors that measure 14” up front and 13.2” in the rear. A video tour of the vehicle can be seen above. Sparco-designed seats are trimmed in Ebony leather and feature manually adjustable carbon fiber shells with GT40-style ventilation grommets and racing harness provisions. A friction stir-welded magnesium center console encapsulates the fuel tank and carries rotary climate controls, a brushed aluminum handbrake lever, and a gearshift lever topped with an aluminum knob. Additional amenities include air conditioning, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel.



The instrumentation layout was also inspired by the GT40 and includes a central 8k-rpm tachometer and an offset 220-mph speedometer. Additional gauges display coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, boost pressure, and fuel level, while toggle switches control the lighting and rear window defrost. The mid-mounted 5.4-liter V8 features an aluminum block, cylinders heads, and pistons, as well as a dry-sump lubrication system. A Lysholm screw-type supercharger and an air-to-water intercooler help produce a factory-rated output of 550 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels through a Ricardo six-speed manual transaxle and a helical limited-slip differential. The double-wishbone suspension utilizes unequal-length aluminum control arms along with coilover shocks and stabilizer bars at the front and rear. Additional underside photos are included in the gallery below. The Carfax report is free of accidents or other issues and lists registration as a Prince Edward Island, Canadian Vehicle!
