2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition - Collector Owned With 1,859 Miles
From New
Representing one of the most desirable and collectible examples of
the first-generation Ford GT, this 2006 Heritage Edition is an
exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly sought-after modern
American supercar with just 1,859 miles from new. Collector-owned
and one of only 343 Heritage Edition examples produced, the
Heritage Edition was created to celebrate Ford Motor Company's
100th anniversary while paying tribute to the legendary GT40 race
cars that forever changed the history of international
motorsport.
The original Ford GT40 famously ended Ferrari's dominance at the 24
Hours of Le Mans with its historic 1-2-3 finish in 1966, followed
by three consecutive overall victories from 1967 through 1969. The
Heritage Edition specifically commemorates the iconic Gulf
Oil-sponsored GT40s campaigned by John Wyer's team, which secured
back-to-back Le Mans victories in 1968 and 1969. Its unmistakable
Gulf-inspired livery, finished in Heritage Blue with striking Epic
Orange accents, remains one of the most recognizable and celebrated
paint schemes in automotive racing history.
Power is provided by Ford's supercharged 5.4L V-8 engine, producing
an impressive 550 horsepower and paired with the highly regarded
Ricardo 6-speed manual transmission. This example is further
equipped with optional grey-painted brake calipers and optional
lightweight BBS forged aluminum wheels, adding to its desirable
specification.Accompanying the car are its owner's manuals, car
cover, air pump, tow hook, Ford GT book, and two keys.
With its limited production, unmistakable Le Mans-inspired Heritage
livery, remarkably low mileage, and collector ownership, this 2006
Ford GT Heritage Edition represents an outstanding opportunity to
acquire one of the most iconic and collectible modern Ford
performance cars. An important addition to any serious Ford GT,
supercar, or motorsport collection.
