Ford GT Mk IV Sells Out Instantly As Collectors Rush For Limited Run
Ford's ultra-exclusive GT Mk IV sold out within minutes today as enthusiasts and collectors scrambled for one of just 67 available units. The $1.7 million track-only hypercar represents the final chapter in Ford's modern GT lineage, sparking intense demand among automotive investors and racing fans.
The limited production run sold out through Ford's concierge program at 11:00 AM ET, with buyers required to submit applications in advance. This marks the third and final special edition of Ford's revived GT program, following the 2016 road car and 2020 GT Mk II.
Interest surged today as Ford released final specifications showing the Mk IV's 800+ horsepower twin-turbo V6 and bespoke aerodynamic package. The vehicle pays homage to Ford's 1967 Le Mans-winning GT40 Mk IV while incorporating modern carbon fiber construction and racing technology.
Automotive analysts note the immediate sellout continues the trend of seven-figure limited edition cars disappearing within hours. Similar demand recently occurred with Porsche's 911 GT3 RS and Mercedes-AMG's One hypercar. The GT Mk IV's exclusivity and racing pedigree made it particularly desirable.
Ford Performance confirmed all 67 units were allocated to pre-qualified buyers, though didn't disclose names. Industry sources suggest prominent collectors and professional racing teams secured most builds. Deliveries will begin in late 2026 following final testing and customization.
The GT Mk IV's sellout dominates automotive forums and social media today, with many enthusiasts expressing frustration over the limited availability. Some prospective buyers reported being on waiting lists for years without securing an allocation. Secondary market prices are expected to immediately double the $1.7 million MSRP.
This concludes Ford's current GT program after nearly a decade of production. Company officials haven't confirmed future plans for the nameplate, leaving the Mk IV as potentially the last gasoline-powered Ford GT ever built.
