GMA T.50 on Sale
When Gordon Murray unveiled the T.50 in August 2020, the hypercar carried a price tag of £2.36 million (approximately $3 million at the time) before local taxes – a figure that seemed extraordinary even by supercar standards. Yet within 48 hours, all 100 planned production units had sold out, with hundreds more collectors joining waiting lists in hopes that a build slot might become available. Five years later, as production concluded in July 2025, the T.50 has established itself not merely as a collector’s item but as a rapidly appreciating asset whose secondary market values significantly exceed its original asking price.
The T.50’s initial cost reflected its extraordinary engineering investment. Each car features a bespoke Cosworth-developed 4.0L V12 that weighs just 178 kilograms yet produces 661 horsepower at a stratospheric 11,500 rpm – the highest-revving road car engine ever produced. The entire vehicle tips the scales at under 1,000 kilograms dry weight, lighter than many sports cars with half the power. Every major component was developed specifically for this car and manufactured in the United Kingdom at Gordon Murray Automotive’s purpose-built facilities in Surrey.
By 2025, secondary market values have climbed substantially above the original MSRP. Luxury car broker LUSSO has estimated current market values at approximately £3 million to £3.2 million for well-specified examples with low mileage – representing appreciation of roughly 27% to 35% since launch. In US dollar terms, current asking prices range between $3.8 million and $4.0 million depending on specification and provenance. This appreciation reflects both the car’s inherent desirability and its absolute scarcity in a market where 100 units must satisfy global demand.
First GMA T.50 Offered at Auction
The most significant test of T.50 values arrives this week with RM Sotheby’s inaugural Abu Dhabi Collectors’ Week auction on December 5, 2025, which features chassis 035 – the first T.50 ever offered at public auction. The car, finished in Harrier grey with a Charcoal Alcantara and Matrix Orange leather interior, shows just 217 kilometers on its odometer and remains in virtually factory-fresh condition. RM Sotheby’s has placed a pre-sale estimate in excess of $5 million, which would represent a substantial premium over both original pricing and current secondary market averages.
The timing of this auction coincides with Gordon Murray’s broader market momentum. Just weeks ago, a Gordon Murray S1 LM – a limited edition tribute to the Le Mans-winning McLaren F1 GTR – sold for a record-breaking $20.63 million at RM Sotheby’s Las Vegas auction, establishing the highest price ever paid for a new car at auction. While the S1 LM is a distinct vehicle limited to just five examples, its extraordinary result demonstrates the premium collectors place on Gordon Murray’s engineering philosophy.
The T.50’s value proposition extends beyond mere speculation. Production has now permanently ceased, with the final car completed in July 2025 after a build run that began in early 2023. Unlike manufacturers who may extend production runs or announce additional variants, Gordon Murray Automotive has committed to strict limits: exactly 100 road cars, no exceptions, with company directors prohibited from purchasing units to ensure genuine customer allocation. This enforced scarcity mirrors the McLaren F1’s original 106-unit production, a model whose values have risen from $1 million at launch to over $20 million today.
Whether the T.50 follows a similar appreciation trajectory remains to be seen, but early indicators suggest strong investment potential for collectors who secured allocations at launch pricing.
