For Sale at Auction: 2005 Ford GT in Atlanta, Georgia for sale in Atlanta, GA
Vehicle Description Chassis No.
1FAFP90S85Y401810 Born during a wave of fresh thinking, rebirth, and retro-inspired nostalgia, the Ford GT was first shown as the GT40 concept in 2002 at the North American International Auto Show with not only a similar nameplate, but styling that paid tribute to the company's original GT40 race car of four decades prior.
Following instant acclaim and significant interest, production quickly began by the end of 2004 where each car started life in Ohio before final completion took place at Ford's own Special Vehicle Team (SVT) facility in Michigan.
As a fully modern, state-of-the-art supercar designed to compete against Europe's best, the GT utilized a 21st Century design with aluminum composite body panels, bonded floor panels, and a one-piece carbon fiber rear clamshell over a longitudinal, rear-mounted supercharged V-8.
Designed to compete with Ferrari both on and off the track, the Ford GT offered vastly superior performance figures compared even with the more expensive F430 of the time thanks to a monstrous 5.
4-liter V8 assisted by an Eaton supercharger to produce 550 horsepower.
Paired with a Riciardo six-speed manual transmission, the GT offered a top speed of 204 miles per hour and zero to sixty in just 3.
4 seconds.
Not only fast in a straight line, Ford also equipped double-wishbone suspension and Brembo brakes, which made the GT remarkably fast on both the street and track.
Completed on 9 September 2005, this Ford GT was delivered new through Estabrook Motor Company of Pascagoula, Mississippi where it was originally equipped with all four available options.
Finished in a sinister Mark II Black Clearcoat exterior with optional BBS painted forged lightweight aluminum wheels and painted Gun Metal Grey brake calipers, this car offers a rarely seen exterior presence with the removal of the Silver GT stripes typically found on the hood and roof.
Featuring an Ebony Black leather interior with upgraded McIntosh Audiophile audio system, the GT benefits from many standard amenities such as air conditioning and carbon fiber bucket seats.
According to records on file, after this car was delivered it was not officially sold or registered until 30 November 2010 when it was purchased by the late Mr.
John Hartford, a renowned Jacksonville-based collector of performance Ford cars.
It is now offered on behalf of his estate with 4,530 miles at the time of cataloging.
According to the estate and corresponding records, this GT was looked after by Coggin Ford in Jacksonville, Florida.
A well-preserved example driven sparingly, this car is still equipped with what are believed to be the original tires.
Complete with three vehicle keys and two fobs, the owner's manual, quick reference guide, and tire inflator are included as well.
As one of only 238 examples finished in Mark II Black Clearcoat, this Ford GT offers exceptional rarity more comparable with the ultra-limited Heritage Edition GT and is sure to be a feature addition of its next collection.
