John Cena’s Ford GT Is About To Be Sold For The Fourth Time

The Ford GT originally owned by wrestling superstar John Cena has gone to auction yet again, making this the fourth time the car will have been sold
John Cena’s Ford GT Is About To Be Sold For The Fourth Time

Just four weeks after being sold to a third owner, the Ford GT originally owned by wrestler John Cena, and that caused the 41-year-old so much trouble, is up for grabs again.

The Liquid Blue example is doing a fine job of demonstrating why Ford, Porsche and others are beginning to work to prevent people flipping their brand new and rare cars for a profit. With only 636 miles on its odometer, this car has so far changed hands once every 212 miles, on average. The third owner has added just one mile to it.

Its current owner bought it just a month ago at Monterey Car Week, from the old Californian farmer who had bought it from Cena. Ford had been chasing the return of this particular car after its original no-sale terms were breached by the wrestling champ, but we don’t know whether that has impacted the seller’s decision to shift the car onwards so quickly.

Ford was said to want GT serial number 77 back, but how that would work in legal terms after it has changed hands several times we can’t imagine. After Cena settled with Ford out of court, some outlets report that Ford had dropped its pursuit of this car, leaving it as the only GT in the world that’s safely available to buy right now.

It certainly is a pricey toy, though, having risen in value from its original $466,376 to $1.4 million in the short space of time it has been on the open market. Will it make yet another gain when it comes to be sold by Mecum Auctions?

We’ll find out after the hammer falls on lot S69 at Mecum’s Dallas 2018 sale, which runs across 3-6 October.

“The third owner has added just one mile to it.”

Who drives a GT for 1 mile and then goes ‘Nah, not for me’!?
If he’s doing it purely for the money, he’s a grade-A pillock.

I disagree mate.
Flipping a car for profit and spending that money on your project car is a brillant idea.

Although we all know where that money went and it probably was for a night….

This seems to me more like a game of hot potato, pass it around because you don’t want to be holding on to it when Ford starts legal action

actually you wont get any

fords given up with this car already and so basically this SINGLE car isnt entitled to the 2 year no sale contract.
the article mentioned it QUITE clearly as well…..

although the value of this would skyfall after the 2 year contracts as the market would FLOOD with garage queen GTs

Why doesn’t ford just buy it at auction and take it from these people? If no ones going to drive it, it would do better sitting in a museum

Why would they buy it for 1.5 million when they originally sold it for 450k that essentially renders 6 GT sales non profitable. By a lot and thats assuming it was 100k to make it. Much easier to sue the people that broke the contract that they agreed to.
