You Can Own Paul Walker's 2005 Ford GT
The current bid is already over $500,000.
How much are you willing to pay for a pristine 2005 Ford GT that Paul Walker once owned? If the answer is anything less than half a million dollars, you'll have to do without this holiday season. Bring a Trailer is auctioning the car right now, and with more than a week left, the bid has already hit $550,000.
According to the listing, the GT was part of Walker's "Always Evolving Collection," but it doesn't detail the provenance. Under the hood is a Ford's supercharged 5.4-liter V-8 engine, which sends power to the rear wheels through a Ricardo six-speed manual transaxle. It makes 550 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque.
What makes this GT special is its exterior. It's one of 14 2005 GTs that has the Mark IV Red without the racing stripes. The car is otherwise mostly stock, though it features a Steve Saleen signature on an engine crossmember.
It has aftermarket Penske dampers, an Accufab throttle body, an ECU tune, and an upgraded exhaust system. It has aftermarket 19- and 20-inch ADV.1 twin-spoke wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. The sale also includes a set of BBS forged lightweight aluminum wheels with Goodyear Eagle F1 rubber.
The car came with an assortment of factory options that remain, like the McIntosh stereo with a CD player and red brake caliper finishers. Inside, the GT features ebony leather trim, with rubber floor mats protecting the aluminum floors. It also has keyless entry, air conditioning, and push-button start.
The car has 3,7001 miles on the odometer, a clean Carfax report, and a clean title. It underwent a service this month that included changing the oil, spark plugs, fuel filter, battery, and mass airflow sensor
It's been nearly 12 years since Paul Walker tragically died in a car crash. Since then, many of his vehicles have come up for auction, along with others he's driven in the Fast and Furious franchise.
