Episode 28
In this episode of "The Appraiser," Colin has the opportunity to look over a 2005 Ford GT with over 31,000 miles on the odometer. A Ford GT with this kind of milage is unheard of. Despite the high milage, the interior and exterior remain in great condition thanks to the owners love for the car. Will this Ford GT maintain a high price tag or will it take a cut due to the mileage? Tune in and find out.

In the 18 years since Bill bought his car, he's only put 1,700 miles a year on it. 31,000 miles is still very low mileage. In fact, the 1,700 miles a year Bill did drive his car is better for the car than the damage that could have happened sitting and collecting dust.

1,700 miles a year is basically preventive maintenance. Keeps things lubricated. It’s also possible that he’s retired or works from home and therefore does daily it. I barely put 2000 miles on my car annually and that’s just because I mostly just drive it to pick the kid up from school and groceries. A mile or two a day.

Actually, considering the age, the mileage could be viewed as a plus. Too often machines get purchased for 'investment purposes' when in reality, to use them as intended, you'd have to drop buckets of money into them just to get them ready. I like the man's use of a very desirable car. Hat's off to him for sure.

The funny thing is, this car is probably worth more than some of the low mileage ones. It seems like every other day there's a "delivery" miles GT on BaT. Whereas I hardly ever see a GT with 10,000+ miles on it. So if you were looking for a GT that you could actually drive and use without losing value, like this one, it would be harder to find.

With how rare it is to find one of good condition and not wrecked, I'm pretty sure if he wanted to sell it he could easily find that one guy who is willing to pay him far over what it's appraised at... When it comes to "luxury" items like these, they're worth what people are willing to pay for them. So the actual value can vary greatly from any appraised value.

He's still light on the value, even at $300K. Cars with all 4 options with mileage in the 4-figure range are over $450k now. 3-digit mileage cars are closing on or eclipsing $500K. People don't care if it has mileage like this car. It's better off as all the consumables are in good shape (vs cars that sit for years and rubber hoses & belts dry out). I'd put the value on this car more in the $350k-$375k range. People will pay good money even with high mileage. They don't care and just want it to drive.

The thing is... when someone buys a low mileage example, they don't dare to drive it, fearing of losing a lot of value. When you buy one that has mileage, not only do you know it hasn't been just sitting forever, you can drive the guts out of it and you won't be losing much more value out of it. Low mileage trophy's are just investments, and nothing more. 31k miles is actually very little for a car that that is actually been driven. A lot of extreme low mileage examples are probably in worst condition for have not properly lubricated, old tires, etc.

But he parked it in a garage in LA with a SAND floor (common in the sixties). Even in dry old LA the winter moisture comes up, seals dry up, and the OZONE in those days turns the rubber to hard almost obsidian character. We were having to completely dismantled the car and rebuild everything; not worth in in 1973. (probably worth it NOW, but)......!!

I still remember that trip to the dealer, It was the Ford GT and the rest were all Mustangs. And some very rare, performance ones too. There was 3 shelby's, A basic Roush GT, A 427 Roush, A Saleen Roadster version, A Bullit and a Steeda built GT(complete with a roll cage, aftermarket seats, aftermarket wheels, body kit and a big spoiler). They had so many Mustangs in there that I had to be careful getting in and out as to not damage them since they were that close to each other.

At least it was driven. It’s awesome to see kids (and their dads) excited about cars out on the road but it’s not likely to happen if it’s sitting in someone’s garage. Driving cool cars is essential to getting future generations excited about cars otherwise we will all be in glorified golf carts

I love owners that Drive their cars and not show them. I have a 2018 Mustang GT that is all tricket out and it is my daily driver. And I love it.

I recently saw a BaT auction where a (near) zero mile 1995 Cobra R sold for around 70k USD. With inflation the original purchase price of ~38k would be ~78k . If it was about making money they could have just put their same 38k in a safe capital investment and had 3x as much in the same time. Complete waste to just store the car almost 30 years and not drive it. They're made to be used!

I’d prefer to pay someone that’s taken care of the car and driven it than some on who’s sitting on 500 miles with old seals and everything

An '06 Ford GT just sold on BaT a few weeks ago. Same color as this one. Fully optioned car. 27k miles. 361k! Almost 200k over the 165k msrp. It had minor paint chips and iirc, the front piece had been repainted. Otherwise beautiful car.

That person way overpaid for that car imo. A car like that is worth around $300K.

Nice appraisal. I have to wonder how many former Ford GT owners wish they’d done what this guy did and still had their car?

I guess it's different with exotics, but I've always said/practiced, that mileage is almost irrelevant, condition is everything.

I have always admired that family of Ford GTs but being 6' 3" tall I would never be able to drive it especially with my recent bulk of 300 lbs. I did fit in a Lamborghinni Miura once and I was able to enter and exit it with less problems than I had with MG Midgets and Sprites. Another tough one was the Mazda Miata ( could not even crank the window down) but I have no trouble with either my C-3 or my C-5 Corvette.
