Ford GT Performance Overview
Built as a low-volume Ford performance flagship across 2005 to 2017, the GT is represented here by 14 verified tests spanning three model years. The first-generation 2005 GT (2005–2006) established the baseline with a supercharged gasoline V8, covering outputs from 550 hp in stock form to 1000 hp in twin-turbo builds. Early testing ranged from 3.8 seconds to 60 mph in the 2005 Accufab Coupe to 3.3 seconds in the standard 2005 Coupe, while quarter-mile runs extended to 10.6 seconds at 152 mph for the 2006 Heffner Performance 1000TT Coupe.
That original era averaged 3.59 seconds to 60 mph across 11 tests and showed how much headroom the platform had through forced-induction tuning, while remaining exclusively gasoline-powered. After that initial 2005–2006 run, the GT returned for the 2017 GT generation with a different engine direction: a 647-hp twin-turbo gasoline V6. In independently tested form, the 2017 Coupe reset the model line’s benchmark at 3.0 seconds to 60 mph, with other recorded runs at 3.1 seconds. Today, the 2017 GT stands as the quickest production-tested version in this dataset, giving the model an overall 0–60 spread from 3.0 to 3.8 seconds and an average quarter-mile of 11.38 seconds at 130.7 mph.

How we verify Ford GT performance data
Records and averages on this page cover verified production runs only; modified and prototype results are listed by year but never folded into them. We include only independently published road-test results from automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed 0–60 times are excluded unless clearly labeled. When multiple publications test the same Ford GT trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.
