Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
CARFAX shows this GT as a total loss in January 2020, and it reportedly received its performance mods about 1000 miles ago. It also has a relatively high 13017 miles on it. It truly hasn’t led the typical life of a Ford GT (careful storage and static display). Its presentation, though, is still one of a lightly used exotic.
Market commentary
Condition aside, given the title history and the extensive mods, this is the closest thing to a "#4" Ford GT that we're likely to see for a while. And it sold for about #4 money. But the new owner also gets a usable GT that they can drive around or track without feeling guilty, plus they get the extra kick in the back from all the engine mods. This is a carefully-calibrated result balancing the 2005 Ford GT's inherent value against the total loss history and $40,000 in modifications and upgrades. The new owner's challenge is to manage the lavish performance without turning it into a total loss accident vehicle again.
