"Innovation in design meets pure performance in this return of the
legendary Ford GT." The Ford GT story follows a 50+ year timeline.
The original Ford GT40s were built to break Ferrari's seemingly
unshakeable grip on the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. In 1966, they
took 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place at Le Mans, proving that Ford, an
American manufacturer, could run with the European contenders and
dominate them. The Ford GT name would lay dormant for almost 40
years, seeing its revival in 2004 with the new Ford GT road cars.
These were developed to be street cars first, comfortable and easy
to drive, with 550 horsepower to enjoy. Fast forward to 2015's
Frankfurt Motor Show, and the all-new Ford GT is revealed. It is
announced that the Ford GT is set to go racing in both IMSA and the
World Sports Car series, spearheaded by the Chip Ganassi Racing
team. Much like the fateful race at Le Mans 50 years ago with
Ford's triumph, Ford's GT under Chip Ganassi Racing took to 1st in
class at the 24 Hours of Lemans in 2016, cementing the modern car's
place in racing history as its predecessor had done before it.
This 2019 Ford GT was ordered through Galpin Ford, Van Nuys, and
was optioned with the $70k "lightweight" Carbon Series package. The
car is finished in Liquid Grey (a $5000 option) with a carbon and
alcantara suede interior. Its 647 hp and 550lb/ft of torque comes
from a mid-mounted, twin-turbocharged 3.5L EcoBoost V6 paired with
a seven-speed dual-clutch transaxle. The car is wrapped in paint
protection film, ceramic coated, and fitted with a windshield
protection film ($10,000 value).
The GT features a carbon-fiber monocoque structure bolted to the
front and rear aluminum subframes that serve as active stress
members for the hydraulically adjustable pushrod suspension system.
Variable ride height, selectable drive modes, and launch control
are standard features. The Carbon Series package reduces total
weight by approximately 40lbs and features exposed carbon-fiber
stripes, carbon-fiber wheels, a titanium exhaust system, titanium
lug nuts, and a polycarbonate engine cover with increased
ventilation. The staggered-width 20? gloss carbon-fiber wheels are
mounted with titanium lug nuts and 245/35 front and 325/30 rear
Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Braking is handled by red-painted
Brembo six-piston mono-block calipers over 15.5" carbon-ceramic
discs up front, while four-piston calipers are mounted over 14.1"
units out back. The interior is optioned with the Carbon package,
and the Sparco carbon-fiber seats are trimmed in black Alcantara
upholstery with contrasting silver stitching. Exposed carbon fiber
is visible on the door sills, dashboard, center console, and
seatbacks. The fixed-position driver's seat is paired with an
adjustable pedal box and steering column, and amenities include air
conditioning and an infotainment system with a touchscreen. The
lightweight Alcantara-wrapped multi-function steering wheel flaunts
paddle shifters and a digital instrument panel with multiple
information settings.
This one owner Ford GT has only 3215 miles and is now offered here
at Canepa with the original window sticker, factory books, shipping
documents, build photos, promotional materials, battery tender, and
indoor and outdoor car covers.
Consequent to its arrival here at Canepa, this Ford GT was treated
to the Canepa Difference process where it was personally test
driven by Bruce Canepa, mechanically inspected by our team, and
then finished off by our Concourse Award Winning detail team. Bruce
has had his fair share of experience behind the wheel of several
Ford GTs and has his own personal example; however, this Carbon
Series model is a cut above the rest.
