This guide covers the full specification, where values sit today, how it compares, and what matters most when you buy one.

Performance in context

The GT is a road-going race car: a carbon tub, active aero, pushrod suspension and a 647 hp twin-turbo V6. It is narrow, light and single-minded, built around aerodynamics rather than luxury.

What to look for when buying

  • Resale restrictions — early cars carried a resale agreement; confirm the car is clear to sell.
  • Special editions — Heritage liveries, ’64 Prototype and Mk II command premiums.
  • Mileage — these are low-mileage collector cars; documented low use leads.
  • Originality and history — service records and unmodified spec matter.
  • Paint protection and condition — check wraps or paint protection film and for any damage.
