Whether you’re a die-hard Ford GT enthusiast or just a hockey fan with a love for speed, this one checks all the boxes.
While you may have seen Wayne Gretzky in recent headline news with Washington Capitals' Alexander Ovechkin surpassing his 894-goal record in the NHL, The Great One is also making waves in the automotive world. The team at Merit Partners of Atlanta, GA, is proud to showcase Wayne Gretzky's former Ford GT Heritage Edition as part of its extensive inventory of exotics for sale on duPont REGISTRY. It's not every day a piece of both sports and automotive history hits the market, but that's exactly what's happening with Gretzky's 2006 Ford GT. Once owned by the NHL Hall of Famer, this supercharged American icon is now up for sale, giving collectors a rare shot at owning a car that combines an iconic motorsport status with celebrity ownership.
Originally delivered to Gretzky during Ford's limited production run of the legendary GT, this example stands out because of its famous first owner and how clean and original it remains today. Optioned as a highly desirable Heritage Edition with a Gulf Racing-inspired factory livery, it's a nod to the GT40's Le Man's glory days fighting head-to-head with Ferrari. The bodywork remains in pristine condition and even features Gretzky's famous #99 as its racing number, complemented by forged BBS wheels and massive side air intakes. You're looking at a car that still draws a crowd, even nearly 20 years later.
Inside, the GT keeps things refreshingly analog. Black leather bucket seats, a tall shifter, and toggle switches across the dash remind you that Ford engineered and built this car with the driver in mind. It's minimalist but in the best way possible, with no clutter or distractions, just the essentials for carving corners or cruising with confidence. The interior also remains in showroom shape, indicating just how well this car's been kept over the years.
Under the clamshell rear deck lies a 5.4L supercharged V8 pushing out 550 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a six-speed manual gearbox, it launches from 0–60 mph in just over three seconds and tops out north of 200 mph. With rear-wheel drive and no electronic assists, it's a raw, mechanical experience that modern supercars rarely offer.
