The Camilo Pardo-designed GT was styled as an homage to the Le Mans-winning GT40 racing cars of the 1960s and features aluminum body panels over an extruded-aluminum space frame and roll-bonded floors. This example is one of 265 finished in Midnight Blue for the model year, and it is not equipped with racing stripes. The seller reports that the Ford GT-script side tape was removed under prior ownership. Features include HID headlights, fog lights, side air intakes, a vented hood, a front splitter, a rear diffuser, and a dual center-exit exhaust system. A blemish on one of the left quarter panels has been touched up.
Factory-optional BBS forged lightweight aluminum wheels measure 18” up front and 19” out back and are wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar tires. The Brembo braking system features four-piston monoblock calipers with cross-drilled and ventilated rotors that measure 14” up front and 13.2” out back. The seller notes that aluminum front suspension components have been fitted.
The cockpit is trimmed in Ebony leather, and rubber mats cover bare aluminum floors. Manually adjusted seats were designed by Sparco and feature carbon-fiber shells with GT40-style ventilation grommets and harness slots. The console on the center tunnel houses rotary climate controls, and amenities include a McIntosh CD stereo, air conditioning, remote keyless entry, and push-button ignition. Airbag recall services have been performed.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel is affixed to a tilting and telescoping column ahead of the GT40-inspired instrument array consisting of a central tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline and an offset 220-mph speedometer. Toggle-switch controls are positioned under additional gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, boost, and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 2,100 miles, approximately 1,700 of which were added under current ownership. The seller notes that the voltage and coolant-temperature gauges were replaced.
The mid-mounted 5.4-liter DOHC V8 features an aluminum block, cylinder heads, and pistons in addition to a Lysholm screw-type supercharger, a dry-sump lubrication system, and a water-to-air intercooler. Factory-rated output was 550 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. An oil change was performed in January 2018.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Ricardo six-speed manual transaxle and a helical limited-slip differential.
