The legendary 2005 Ford GT, once owned by Paul Walker, has just changed hands for around 538,000 euros. A true automotive gem, it has only a few kilometres on the clock and is already making enthusiasts dream.
A tribute to the legacy
Paul Walker, who tragically passed away on November 30, 2013, left a mark on the film world by portraying Brian O’Conner in the Fast & Furious saga. A lover of fine machinery, he owned an impressive collection called the “Always Evolving Collection,” which included this 2005 Ford GT. With only 3,701 miles on the clock (approximately 5,960 km), this car is much more than just a vehicle; it is a living tribute to the GT40 that triumphed at Le Mans in the 1960s.
This supercar was sold at auction for an astonishing 627,000 dollars (approximately 538,000 euros), and it no longer belongs to the Walker family. It is a unique piece that attracts the attention of collectors and automotive enthusiasts.
Design and technical specifications
Designed by Camilo Pardo, the Ford GT is a work of art on wheels. Its aluminium body rests on a lightweight yet robust chassis, built with extruded profiles. The floors, obtained through a roll-bonding process, are designed to combine strength and lightness. This blend of modern technology and traditional craftsmanship gives birth to a supercar with striking aesthetics.
The style is bold, featuring sharp fog lights and side air intakes. The car boasts a ventilated hood, a front splitter, and a rear diffuser that scream performance. The icing on the cake: this particular version is one of the rare Mark IV Reds produced without the classic racing stripes. It also stands out with its ADV.1 double-spoke wheels measuring 19 and 20 inches, shod with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres, and its Brembo braking system with red calipers.

The interior stays true to the competitive spirit of the original GT40 while offering some modern comfort touches. It features an adjustable leather steering wheel, Sparco carbon fibre seats with GT40-style ventilation, and aluminium floors covered with rubber mats. To top it all off, air conditioning and a McIntosh stereo add a touch of luxury to this decidedly sporty environment.
The dashboard focuses on the tachometer, while a speedometer climbs up to 355 km/h. Essential indicators for monitoring water temperature, oil pressure, voltage, boost, and fuel are wisely placed to avoid distracting you during road performance.

Engine and breathtaking performance
At the heart of this beast lies a 5.4-litre DOHC supercharged V8, developing an impressive 550 hp and a monumental torque of 678 Nm. Paired with a six-speed manual gearbox and a helical LSD differential, this engine promises thrills worthy of the greatest circuits. Moreover, this GT has benefited from aftermarket modifications, including an Accufab throttle body, a remapped ECU, and a dedicated exhaust, which is sure to bring smiles to driving enthusiasts.
The last maintenance was in November 2025: oil change, MAF sensor, battery, fuel filter, and spark plugs were checked to ensure this car remains ready to roar at every start. Every detail matters when it comes to such a refined machine.
The 2005 Ford GT continues to inspire and move all those who cross its path. Paul Walker would have been proud to know that his legacy endures through this iconic supercar.
