With demand far outstretching supply of its GT, Ford implemented an “anti-flip” clause in the purchase contract for the vehicle that prevented new owners from buying a GT only to re-sell it on the second-hand market for a mark-up within the first 24 months of ownership. Despite this, John Cena sold his a month after purchasing it, with just 30 miles on the odometer. And he made a pretty penny, offering it to a retired farmer for about $1.54 million — roughly triple its original price (via Top Speed). Despite being a fan of the car, Cena reportedly had a lot of trouble getting in and out of his Ford GT because of his considerable stature and muscular bulk, prompting the sale.
Unfortunately for Cena, when Ford got wind of the deal, the company sued him and the dealer that resold the car. Several months after the initial suit was brought against Cena by Ford, Cena’s legal team announced that it had reached a settlement with Ford, with the proceeds going to a charity. The statement included comments from Cena who stated his love for the brand and urged other Ford GT owners to honor their contracts.
