This summer, the Mecum Florida Summer Special 2024 will feature a rare gem: a 2005 Ford GT crossing the auction block on Saturday, July 13th at Mecum. This Ford GT, boasting a mere 610 miles on its odometer, is one of the most iconic American supercars ever produced. Known for its striking Mark IV Red exterior and luxurious Ebony leather interior, this particular model is even more desirable thanks to its authenticated signature by the legendary Carroll Shelby.
Under the hood, the GT houses a powerful 5.4L supercharged V-8 engine, capable of delivering 550 horsepower. Paired with a 6-speed manual Ricardo transaxle, this beast can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and reach a top speed of 205 mph. This example includes all four available options: racing stripes, red brake calipers, BBS forged aluminum wheels, and a McIntosh stereo system, making it a true collector's item.
Maintained meticulously in a climate-controlled environment, this Ford GT comes with its original window sticker, a custom Ford car cover, a Ford GT pen, and a clean CarFax report. Additional features include stainless steel dual exhaust, 4-wheel 4-piston Brembo disc brakes with red calipers, and BBS wheels. This two-owner vehicle, complete with all original equipment and accessories, represents a unique opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
