Racing is more than competition—it’s a relentless pursuit of greatness. The Ford GT carries the weight of a history built on defying the odds and dominating the track. At Pupil of Fate Motors, we brought this machine into our collection not just because it’s fast, but because it’s a symbol of victory, innovation, and the spirit of motorsport. It stands alone as a legend, but when joined with the rest of our lineup, it helps define a legacy unlike any other.
The Ford GT is a symbol of American performance, endurance racing dominance, and cutting-edge engineering. Inspired by the legendary GT40, which famously defeated Ferrari at Le Mans in the 1960s, the modern Ford GT pays tribute to its racing roots while pushing the boundaries of aerodynamics and performance.
At Pupil of Fate Motors, we are proud to offer two exceptional Ford GTs for sale:
- Ford GT Heritage Edition – A tribute to Ford’s legendary racing victories.
- Ford GT Studio Collection Edition – A highly limited, bespoke version with exclusive design elements.
A Legacy That Defined an Era
The story of the Ford GT begins in the 1960s when Ford set out to defeat Ferrari at Le Mans. The result was the iconic GT40, which secured four consecutive victories from 1966 to 1969. Fast forward to the 21st century, and Ford decided to revive the spirit of the GT40 with a modern-day Ford GT, first in 2005, and then with an all-new model in 2017, designed specifically to take on the world’s best supercars.
Design: A Masterpiece of Aerodynamics
Every inch of the Ford GT is designed for speed, efficiency, and downforce. Unlike traditional supercars, its tear-drop-shaped carbon-fiber body, massive rear wing, and active aerodynamics ensure it remains planted at high speeds.
Key design highlights include:
• Carbon-fiber monocoque chassis, reducing weight while increasing rigidity.
• Large rear flying buttresses, which direct airflow to improve stability.
• Active rear wing, which adjusts automatically to optimize downforce.
• Dihedral doors, giving it a futuristic, race-inspired aesthetic.
Performance: A Race Car for the Road
Underneath its striking exterior, the Ford GT is powered by a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 engine, producing 660 horsepower and 746 Nm of torque. Despite not using a V8 like its predecessors, this high-performance engine delivers incredible power with impressive efficiency.
Performance figures:
• 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 3.0 seconds
• Top speed: 347 km/h (216 mph)
• 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for lightning-fast shifts
• Active suspension system that adapts to driving conditions
The Ford GT was built with endurance racing in mind, sharing its DNA with the Le Mans-winning GT race car. It’s not just about raw power—it’s about precision handling, aerodynamic efficiency, and track-ready performance.
Interior: Driver-Centric Innovation
Step inside the Ford GT, and you’ll find a cockpit designed with racing in mind. Unlike most luxury supercars, the GT’s interior is focused on functionality and lightweight materials.
• Fixed driver’s seat, ensuring the perfect driving position, with an adjustable steering wheel and pedals.
• Minimalist dashboard with digital displays, reducing distractions.
• F1-style steering wheel, housing all key controls for easy access.
• Carbon-fiber and Alcantara trim, enhancing the race-ready ambiance.
Heritage Edition & Studio Collection: Ultimate Collector’s Cars
The Ford GT Heritage Edition is a special tribute to the GT40’s legendary Le Mans victories. It features:
• Gulf Racing livery, paying homage to the 1968-1969 race-winning GT40.
• Unique gold wheels, inspired by the original race cars.
• Limited production numbers, making it a highly collectible piece of automotive history.
