Inspired by the legendary Ford GT40 racing car of the 1960s, the modern Ford GT is an unfiltered racing car that rubs shoulders with exotics from Lamborghini, Aston Martin, and Bugatti. The second-generation GT went into production late in 2016, emerging as a vicious track weapon and powered by a turbocharged V6 making well over 600 horsepower.
Already prohibitively priced when new, used examples are now true collector’s items, and the 2019 example seen here is no exception. With tens of thousands in optional equipment and close to zero miles, bidding has already reached $651,000 for this supercar on Bring A Trailer, which makes even the Ford Mustang GTD look cheap.

2019 Ford GT

Although it may lack the theater of a Ferrari, this 2019 Ford GT’s low-slung stance and mid-rear engine proportions are the stuff of a true exotic. From the cutaway nose and vents in the hood to the active rear spoiler at the back, the design was carefully crafted to prioritize downforce.
The 2019 example featured here was ordered new in California and features Liquid Red Tri-Coat paint with Frozen White strips, set over a Dark Energy interior. Over $61,000 was spent on options alone, including the Exterior Carbon Fiber Gloss Package ($15,000), 20-inch gloss carbon-fiber wheels ($15,000), the Frozen White stripes ($10,000), and titanium exhaust ($10,000). When new, the base price was $491,500, but the options raised the total cost to $553,000.
Inside, the GT has an F1-inspired steering wheel (optionally covered in leather here instead of the standard Alcantara), fixed carbon-fiber Sparco seats with Alcantara-wrapped bolsters, and anodized black aluminum shift paddles. Six-point harness anchors were added to this model, too.

Ultra-Low Miles
2019 Ford GT
Bring A Trailer
This example has covered only nine miles, so has basically been standing still since new. The 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transaxle and produces 647 horsepower and 550 lb-ft of torque. The combination is enough to launch the GT to 60 mph in around three seconds, and big carbon-ceramic brakes (15.5 inches in front and 14.1 inches at the back) slow it down just as ferociously.
The seller recommends an oil change, so it may have been some time since this was last done. As per the Carfax report, there are no accidents or any other damage to speak of. Although the tires have barely seen any action, the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber has a mix of 2017 or 2018 tire codes, so any fastidious new owner who actually plans to drive the car may want to swap these for fresh ones.

How Much Should You Pay?
2019 Ford GT
Bring A Trailer
With two days to go before the auction concludes, this 2019 Ford GT’s maximum bid is sitting at $651,000. The first bid on November 25 was already $500k, and it shot up to $600k roughly 30 minutes after that, easily exceeding the original MSRP plus options.
Other listings on Bring A Trailer from earlier this year show that two 2019 examples sold for $976,000 and $1,025,000, but both were desirable Heritage Editions. Another example went for $815,000 back in April, but that had 260 miles on the clock.
The combination of this red GT’s unique specification and exceptionally low miles could see it exceed $800k. It’s hard to make a rational case for spending that much on a Ford GT, but this isn’t a machine guided by rational thought. For the diehard Ford collector, it’s difficult to put a number on such a well-preserved track weapon.
