For one thing, I think your interchangeable use of GT and GT40 is confusing me. The modern iteration manufactured by Ford from 2005-2006 is a "Ford GT", not a GT40.

You've seen many Ford GTs with engine modifications. I don't think ANYONE has turbo'd or supercharged a GT40. They are classics and are most valuable in stock form.

Let me google that for you

Although it would seem the same could be said about the GT? Stock seems to go for higher than original pricing where as modified resale hovers about what the original price was? Maybe Bonehead or Maxemus can clarify that.

Market for Ford GT's (NOT GT40's) are at an all time high right now and seems to still be climbing. Prices involve a number of factors including color (Heritage still bringing the biggest premium, although it was not the most rare paint scheme), mileage, options, and obviously history of damage/salvage title.

I have not been monitoring the market since I purchased mine about 4 months ago, but I believe sub 1000 mile stock no story GT's, in general, bring about $225K+. Cars between 5-10K miles will still bring $200K+

Modified cars will still carry a premium over a stock car, assuming the mods were done by a reputable tuner such as Heffner. But as with any other car, the seller will be lucky to get $0.25-0.50 on the dollar for what they put into it.

Remarkably, even salvage cars repaired 'properly' bring as much if not even a little more than the original MSRP in 2005-2006!

Wow. Like I said before, these cars are awesome and they are only appreciating!

81911, I have some chose words for you, but I'd rather not belittle you. I owned up to my error.

This is good. Keep up the quality discussion
Ford GT is king. Ranks right there with the CGT in class and value of investment.
