Ford built exactly two 2006 GT road cars in yellow without the iconic racing stripes. One of those unicorns is now for sale.
The first-generation Ford GT, produced from 2004 to 2006, arrived as a modern homage to the legendary Le Mans-winning GT40. Yellow paint became the car's most visually striking option, and Ford offered it with the traditional Le Mans-style stripes as standard. The vast majority of buyers embraced the classic look. Finding a yellow GT without stripes remains nearly impossible.
This particular 2006 example represents one of only two factory-built versions to skip the stripes entirely. The decision to forgo them makes this GT genuinely rare in an already exclusive segment. The original Ford GT program produced just 4,038 cars across both generations, with yellow examples representing a fraction of that total.
Specifications on the 2006 GT include the 5.4-liter supercharged V8 producing 550 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission sends power to the rear wheels. The car delivers 0-60 mph in approximately 3.3 seconds with a top speed near 200 mph. This generation also featured an aluminum space frame, adjustable suspension geometry, and performance that rivaled supercars from Ferrari and Lamborghini at the time.
The stripeless yellow finish transforms the GT's aesthetic entirely. Without the racing heritage visual, the car presents as a cleaner, more understated expression of Ford's supercar ambitions. Collectors obsess over spec rarity and documentation. A factory-order, stripe-free yellow GT commands attention in any concourse lineup.
