For Sale at Auction: 2006 Ford GT in Monterey, California

Chassis No. 1FAFP90S46Y400784

In one of the boldest moves by a major American automaker in recent memory, Ford resurrected the spirit of its legendary Le Mans-winning GT40 with the launch of the Ford GT in the mid-2000s. Originally unveiled as a concept at the 2002 North American International Auto Show to mark Ford's centennial, the production GT was developed under the banner "The Pace Car for an Entire Company." Designed by Camilo Pardo, the Ford GT faithfully echoed the styling of its 1960s forebear while delivering cutting-edge performance. Beneath its sculpted aluminum bodywork lay a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 producing 550 horsepower, mated to a six-speed manual transmission, good for zero to 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and a 205-mph top speed.

For the GT's second and final production year in 2006, Ford introduced the now-iconic Heritage Edition, a $13,000 option coded "GL PO." This limited-production package paid tribute to the Gulf Oil-liveried GT40s fielded by John Wyer Automotive Engineering, which secured back-to-back Le Mans victories in 1968 and 1969. Finished in Heritage Blue with Epic Orange stripes and white roundels on the doors, hood, and decklid, the Heritage Edition delivered a street-legal homage to one of racing's most evocative liveries.

With a total production of just 343 units, the Heritage Edition was instantly recognized as the crown jewel of the 2005-2006 Ford GT production run. Its visual connection to motorsport legend, combined with the GT's no-compromise engineering and visceral driving experience, made it the most coveted specification then and now. As values continue to climb and enthusiasm remains high-especially in light of the second-generation GT's arrival-the Heritage Edition stands firmly as a modern collectible with deep roots in Ford's racing legacy.

According to this Heritage-liveried Ford GT's Marti Report, it completed at Ford's Wixom Plant on 8 March 2006 as a three-option car with its Gulf-inspired livery, Gun Metal Grey-painted brake calipers, and painted forged BBS lightweight wheels. Furthermore, its Marti Report identifies it as a Canadian-market example, which accounts for the absence of the McIntosh stereo system, a feature not offered on cars destined for that market. Just 277 Canadian-market Ford GTs were produced in total and only for the 2006 model year. The clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report records that the car was first registered in Alberta in June of 2006 with regular yearly registrations until 2017. Then in April 2025, this Heritage GT was registered as a personal vehicle before being exported to the United States. Furthermore, its CARFAX records that this GT has been under single private ownership from new. In June of this year, it received a fluid service and an alignment under the direction of the Illinois-based consignor.

Now offered with less than 6,200 miles at the time of cataloging, this single-owner Ford GT Heritage Edition presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the most iconic and desirable modern supercars. Documented with a clean CARFAX and a Marti Report, this Gulf-liveried example embodies the perfect intersection of motorsport heritage, design purity, and analog performance. As one of the rarest and most collectible variants of the first-generation GT, this Heritage Edition is a must-have for any serious collector of modern classics.
