No Reserve Classics is honored to present an extraordinary collector-grade offering: this 2006 Ford GT, finished in the most desirable Mark II Black, showing just 32.8 delivery miles, and documented as 1 of only 14 factory stripe delete examples produced. Preserved in true ""in the wrapper"" condition, this is not simply an exceptional Ford GT, it is one of the most important first-generation Ford GTs to ever surface publicly.
A Modern American Legend With Factory-Documented Rarity
Some automobiles become legendary because of what they accomplished.
Others become legendary because so few were ever built.
This remarkable 2006 Ford GT represents both.
Presented by No Reserve Classics, this exceptional Ford GT is not simply another first-generation supercar. It is one of the most exclusive factory specifications produced during Ford's celebrated 2005–2006 GT program and stands among the rarest documented production configurations ever offered by Ford Motor Company.
Finished in breathtaking Mark II Black Clearcoat over Ebony Black leather, this GT immediately distinguishes itself from the vast majority of production examples through its elegant and understated appearance. Without the traditional silver racing stripes, the body's dramatic Le Mans-inspired design becomes even more striking, allowing every curve, flying buttress, and sculpted intake to command attention.
Yet the true story begins long before the first glance.
Official Ford production records, confirmed through the included Deluxe Marti Report, document this GT as one of only 292 finished in Mark II Black. Even fewer-just 99-left the factory in Mark II Black with the desirable Delete FORD GT Tape Stripes option. According to Ford's production statistics, this example is further distinguished as one of only eight produced with the extraordinary combination of Mark II Black paint, Factory Stripe Delete, and Gunmetal Grey brake calipers.
That level of documented rarity places this GT among the most exclusive production specifications ever offered on the first-generation Ford GT platform.
Adding to its desirability, this example was factory equipped with the optional forged lightweight BBS wheels and the highly sought-after McIntosh Audiophile Sound System, creating a specification seldom seen on the collector market. Research is currently underway with Marti Auto Works to determine the exact production total for this complete factory configuration, which may prove even more exclusive.

A Crown Jewel at No Reserve Classics
At No Reserve Classics, we have been privileged to represent some of the most historically significant collector vehicles in the world.
Among them is the legendary 2005 Ford GT Nardò Prototype (PB1-1)-Ford's factory development car used during its historic high-speed testing program in Italy.
This Mark II Black GT now proudly joins that elite company as one of the rarest production-spec Ford GTs ever acquired by No Reserve Classics, surpassed in historical significance only by the legendary Nardò Prototype (PB1-1), and distinguished not by prototype history, but by an extraordinarily rare, documented production specification.
For discerning collectors, rarity alone is never enough.
Originality.
Documentation.
Factory provenance.
Verified production statistics.
These are the qualities that separate exceptional automobiles from ordinary collector cars.
This Ford GT possesses all of them.
⸻
Why This Ford GT Is Different
The first-generation Ford GT has already secured its place among the greatest American performance cars ever produced.
But not every GT is created equal.
Just as vintage Shelby Mustangs, Hemi Mopars, and COPO Camaros command premiums based upon documented factory specifications, the Ford GT market has increasingly begun rewarding originality and verified production rarity.
This GT represents exactly that.
Unlike modified examples or cars whose uniqueness cannot be substantiated, this Ford GT's rarity is supported directly by Ford production records and documented through the accompanying Deluxe Marti Report.
Its combination of factory stripe delete, rare Gunmetal Grey brake calipers, forged BBS wheels, premium McIntosh audio system, and Mark II Black finish creates one of the most compelling collector opportunities currently available within the first-generation Ford GT marketplace.
For collectors seeking the finest examples-not merely another Ford GT-opportunities such as this rarely present themselves.

The Legend Behind the Ford GT
Born From a Promise to Beat Ferrari Again
Few automobiles can trace their origins to one of the greatest rivalries in motorsports history.
The Ford GT exists because of a promise made more than four decades earlier.
In the early 1960s, Henry Ford II sought to purchase Ferrari in an effort to immediately establish Ford as a dominant force in international motorsports. When negotiations abruptly collapsed, Enzo Ferrari reportedly walked away from the deal, leaving Ford determined to prove itself on the world's biggest stage.
The result was the legendary Ford GT40.
Between 1966 and 1969, the GT40 accomplished what many believed impossible by defeating Ferrari four consecutive times at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Those victories forever cemented Ford's place in racing history and created one of the most recognizable performance cars ever built.
Nearly forty years later, Ford chose to honor that legacy by creating an entirely new supercar-not a retro-inspired sports car, but a genuine modern interpretation of the original GT40.
The result was the first-generation Ford GT.
⸻
Engineering Without Compromise
Unlike many halo cars that share platforms with existing production vehicles, the Ford GT was engineered almost entirely from the ground up.
Every major component was designed with one objective:
To build the ultimate American supercar.
The foundation begins with an exceptionally rigid aluminum space-frame chassis developed specifically for the GT.
Bonded aluminum body panels reduce weight while increasing structural integrity, and extensive use of aluminum throughout the vehicle keeps mass remarkably low without sacrificing strength.
The dramatic rear clamshell lifts nearly the entire rear bodywork, exposing one of the most beautiful engine compartments ever created by Ford Motor Company.
Even today, nearly twenty years after production ended, the engineering remains remarkably advanced.
Every vent, every intake, every flying buttress and every aerodynamic surface serves a functional purpose rather than simply creating visual drama.
The result is an automobile that feels every bit as modern today as it did when it debuted.
⸻
Supercharged Performance
Nestled behind the cockpit sits one of Ford's most celebrated powerplants.
The hand-assembled 5.4-liter DOHC Modular V8 features an Eaton Lysholm screw-type supercharger, dual overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, forged internals, and dry-sump lubrication derived directly from racing technology.
Producing an impressive 550 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, the GT delivers relentless acceleration across the entire powerband.
Unlike today's turbocharged performance cars, throttle response is immediate and linear, accompanied by the unmistakable sound of the supercharger under load.
Power is delivered exclusively through the renowned Ricardo six-speed manual transaxle-a transmission widely regarded as one of the strongest and most satisfying manual gearboxes ever fitted to a production supercar.
No dual-clutch transmission.
No paddle shifters.
No artificial driving modes.
Just a supercharged V8 and a six-speed manual connecting driver and machine exactly as enthusiasts intended.
⸻
A Driver's Supercar
The Ford GT was never designed to isolate the driver.
Instead, it rewards skill.
The steering remains beautifully communicative.
The clutch possesses reassuring mechanical weight.
Gear changes through the Ricardo transmission are deliberate and satisfying.
Visibility over the sculpted front fenders reminds the driver they are seated inside something truly special.
Even at highway speeds, the GT feels planted, composed, and remarkably confidence inspiring.
As speeds increase, aerodynamic stability becomes immediately apparent, allowing the chassis to communicate with remarkable precision.
It is this mechanical honesty that has allowed the first-generation Ford GT to age so gracefully.
Rather than becoming outdated, it has become increasingly appreciated in an era dominated by digital driving experiences.
⸻
Why Collectors Continue Chasing the First Generation
As the collector car market has evolved, the first-generation Ford GT has steadily become recognized as one of the defining American automobiles of the modern era.
Several factors continue driving demand:
Limited two-year production
Naturally analog driving experience
Supercharged V8
Six-speed manual transmission
Motorsport-inspired engineering
Direct connection to Ford's Le Mans heritage
Exceptional long-term parts support
Strong enthusiast community
Increasing collector demand worldwide
Perhaps most importantly, Ford has never attempted to recreate the experience offered by the original 2005–2006 GT.
Later generations introduced incredible technological advancements and racing success, but the original remains uniquely mechanical and engaging.
For many enthusiasts, it represents the final era of truly analog American supercars.

The Specification Collectors Search For
Not all Ford GTs occupy the same position within today's collector market.
Color.
Factory options.
Originality.
Documentation.
Production rarity.
These characteristics increasingly influence desirability among knowledgeable collectors.
This example checks every important box.
Its striking Mark II Black finish provides one of the most elegant appearances ever offered on the Ford GT.
The rare Factory Delete FORD GT Tape Stripes create an understated, sophisticated aesthetic that allows the timeless body design to speak for itself.
The factory Gunmetal Grey brake calipers provide a subtle visual distinction that only the most knowledgeable Ford GT enthusiasts immediately recognize.
Combined with the forged lightweight BBS wheels and McIntosh premium audio system, this specification represents one of the most desirable documented configurations produced during Ford GT production.
For collectors who value factory correctness and verified rarity above all else, examples like this continue becoming increasingly difficult to acquire.
⸻
A Ford GT That Stands Apart
Many Ford GTs are admired.
Few are researched.
Even fewer come with documented production statistics that clearly separate them from the rest.
This GT is one of those automobiles.
Its rarity isn't based on opinion.
It isn't based on modifications.
It isn't based on speculation.
It is based on documented Ford production records, supported by the accompanying Deluxe Marti Report and official production statistics confirming this example's exceptionally uncommon factory configuration. Unicorn gt 2.pdf
For serious collectors, that distinction makes all the difference.

At the age of 18, Joe purchased his first classic car – a 1972 Chevelle SS454 WVIN – and was bit by the bug ever since. He continued buying classic cars and found the rush of purchasing, restoring and driving these symbolic machines of American heritage very addictive. After realizing that his parent’s garage was not big enough to hold them all, he then started to rent a small warehouse. His girlfriend at the time, now his lovely wife, sat him down one day and told him that he had an issue. He was also advised to, moving forward, sell a car before he could buy another one. At that point, through many walks of life, he realized that there are plenty of other people just like him who enjoy owning and driving a piece of American history.
In 2010, he realized that he could quench his desire to drive as many American classics as he desired, as long as he could make room for them, so he ramped up car purchases. You can say it is no coincidence that the founder/owner of No Reserve Classics is named Joe, since he sells American classics that the “average Joe” can afford…but don’t get it twisted, there is nothing average about him or No Reserve Classics.
We enjoy what we do so much that the bottom dollar does not affect our decision making.
We choose to satisfy our passion for restoring classic cars by simply selling them to restore more American muscle.
— Joseph Hanna, Founder/Owner
Typically when you see classic cars, they’re either at car shows or have been sitting in the owner’s garage for quite some time not getting the attention they need. We take those cars and truly bring them back to life by fulfilling light restoration work and getting them to a so-called “turn-key” standpoint where you can hop in and reliably drive them every day.
When a vehicle is auctioned off, they all start at $0.01 and go to the highest bidder at the end of seven days…period. No Reserve Classics is an unprecedented and one of a kind online-based auction company that lets the market decide what our investment classic cars are worth. We are NOT run by used car salesmen and we are ALL passionate collectors who have years of experience owning and working on classic cars. We aim to make buying and selling your dream car as simple and as gratifying as possible.
Have you found the perfect collector vehicle on All Collector Cars? Before you make any decisions, we recommend that you take some time now to read the full description and review all the pictures with the listing. It’s important to do as much due diligence as you can before you contact the seller so that you’re prepared to ask about any flaws you see—and perhaps ones you don’t.
All Collector Cars allows our sellers to post unlimited vehicle pictures and descriptions, which gives you, the buyer, more control and information. In addition, our Buyers Resource section offers advice and vendor recommendations to guide you through the buying process, from classic car financing & insurance to collector vehicle shipping & restoration.
