A low-mileage 2018 Ford GT is heading to auction later this month and could very well sell for seven figures.
The GT in question is painted in Frozen White and includes the $15,000 gloss carbon fiber exterior upgrade with parts such as the front splitter, side skirts, and rear diffuser finished in carbon. In addition, it sports the $15,000 carbon fiber 20-inch wheels as well as the $10,000 Akrapovic titanium exhaust system.
A look inside reveals a ‘Dark Energy’ configuration that was a $30,000 factory option and includes Sparco carbon fiber racing seats finished in Alcantara, six-point harness anchors and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Other key features found within are a 10.1-inch digital instrument cluster and a 6.5-inch touchscreen with navigation, Bluetooth, and Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system.

Powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 with 647 hp that’s paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the Ford GT is definitely no slouch.
As this is a 2018 model, the two-year resale restriction period has expired, and its original owner has driven it for just 97 miles (156 km), as the Mecum listing reveals. Evidently, the owner probably always planned to flip the car when the two-year resale contract ended and only drove it on a few occasions.
Ford GT prices started at around $450,000 for 2018 models, and with $70,000 in options, this one would have cost about $520,000. However, it is still likely to be a good investment as other “used” Ford GT models have been selling for over $1 million in recent months.
