The GT took inspiration from the Le Mans-winning GT40 race cars of the 1960s and features an extruded aluminum space frame, roll-bonded floors, and aluminum body panels.

The BBS-made forged-aluminum wheels measure 18” in diameter up front and 19” out back, and are mounted with Goodyear Eagle F1 tires measuring 235/45 and 315/40 respectively. The double-wishbone suspension is comprised of unequal-length aluminum control arms along with coilover shocks and stabilizer bars front and rear. Four-piston monoblock calipers finished in red are part of the Brembo braking system, along with 14” front and 13.2” rear cross-drilled and ventilated rotors.
Sparco-designed, manually adjusted sport seats are trimmed in black leather and feature carbon fiber shells and GT40-inspired ventilation grommets. The center console houses the HVAC controls, and a McIntosh CD stereo was optioned from the factory. The left and right airbag assemblies were replaced under recall by Suntrup Ford of Kirkwood, Missouri, in January 2019.
A leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts GT40-inspired instrumentation consisting of a 220-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,500-rpm redline, and gauges for oil pressure, boost pressure, engine temperature, voltage, and fuel level. A bank of toggle switches controls lighting and the rear defroster. The digital odometer shows 918 miles, approximately 250 of which were added by the current owner.
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. The factory-rated output was 550 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. A new battery was installed in 2019.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Ricardo six-speed manual transaxle and a helical limited-slip differential.
The window sticker shows factory colors and equipment as well as a total MSRP of $166,945. Manufacturer’s literature and keys can be seen in the gallery below.
