- “Our idea behind this car was to take a race car and not change anything for the street,” says Ford boss Jim Farley. There’s a giant dry-sumped 5.2-litre supercharged V8 up front that revs to somewhere above 7,500rpm and puts out over 800bhp, making this the most powerful road-legal Mustang ever built. That engine is connected to a carbon fibre driveshaft and powers the rear wheels through a rear-mounted eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Pretty much every panel you can see except for the doors is made from carbon fibre.
There are humungous Brembo carbon ceramic brakes hiding under 20-inch forged magnesium wheels, and the active rear wing combines with hydraulically controlled flaps behind the front grille to manage downforce. There’s a giant rear diffuser too, plus a titanium exhaust system supplied by Akrapovic and sticky Michelin Cup 2 R tyres.
Oh, and there’s no boot because that’s taken up by the inboard rear suspension setup, the hydraulic suspension control system and the transaxle’s cooling system. Yeah, this is a properly serious Mustang…

This is what happens when you have a real car guy as the CEO at Ford. Kudos to Jim Farley
Yeah for copying a car from gta lol
This is what happens when you have an out of touch moron as CEO of Ford. They come out with a car that's for rich people.
@@leon.zawodowiec - What car might that be me boy? LOL
Dominator gtx. Check it out it came out in like 2018
@@leon.zawodowiec You're making yourself look ignorant Leon! Try reading some of the technical aspects of the GTD and you'll quickly realize that it is no more like the dominator gtx than a VW beetle! Seriously! Your comment tells me clearly that you have no comprehension of the technological aspects of this car that separates it from anything in its class. That dominator was nothing more than an after market kit car, custom made and not available as a production Mustang. It had nothing even close to the level of technology that is going into this GTD. I'm not going to list it all out for you but suggest you look up the technical aspects of this car and see for yourself that they are light years apart!
Ford really is going extreme and Im all in for it.
It’s a long way from the Fiesta Popular Plus!
Here in America we have the 2020 Shelby GT500, Ford GT, and 2023 Ford Raptor R with 700hp. We have plenty from American fords
It looks like b is for build builded it
@YusufSayed-px2xy Don't forget the Bronco Raptor
And they are coming back in F1. Good days ahead. This looks amazing.
Basically Fords version of the Viper ACR. Incredible.
But slower and more expensive
@@everydaydose7779my favorite combo 😎
It's going to be faster than the ACR dude. The ACR has a manual transmission which makes it slower on many tracks including the nurburgring getting a 7:01. The GTD has a new 8 speed dual clutch transmission which will make it faster around the track. This has a perfect 50/50 weight distribution as well as 800hp vs ACRs 645hp.

@twizz420 - Ford CEO, Jim Farley recently said when asked by the press how much longer Ford will make a V8. His answer was "As long as Washington and the Good Lord allow him to." Let's face it though, V8s are well into their "twilight years" and it won't be too long before they are gone! This just might go down in history as the last super high performance ICE powered Mustang ever to be made!
I have wanted Ford to make a Mustang with this type of focus for years and I almost can't believe they are doing it. This monster looks amazing and I can't wait to see how it goes on the Nurburgring
Jim Farley, CEO of Ford said almost the identical thing! He is the passion behind this car and the reason it will become reality. He called it "A sophisticated, techno badass."
Why make it a mustang though, just make a new car
@@BlinkrBanana - The Mustang will be the last original era muscle car left next year when the Dodges and Camaro are gone from production. I think it is actually quite fitting since the Mustang really began the whole craze. The Mustang nameplate has been linked with Ford Motor Co.for 58 years and while it appears they will continue the name into the emerging EV era, the V8 powered Mustang is a classic. It is currently the best selling sports coupe in the entire world! Why make a new brand new vehicle when you already have a top seller to modify into this amazing GTD. I think it is the right move as does Jim Farley, CEO of Ford!

Nicest front end on any Mustang ever, that powertrain is going to be epic and sound glorious especially with that Akrapovic titanium exhaust. Love those wheels too and damn 325mm section width front tires is insane.

For $300k, it's just a rich ford fan collectors item that a few production numbers will see a track day or two of. Would be cooler if it was around $100k. Even better once they can make EV variants with more power.
People especially nay sayers will be shocked how good this runs around the ring.
Where are the carbon wheels, doors and roof?
Amazing - Ford has really thrown down the gauntlet, not just for GM and FCA but for the European greats, as well! So many cool details on this car. I love how Ford decided to affix that massive rear wing to the C pillar instead of the boot, to maximize downforce over the rear wheels. This is a Mustang as a proper supercar … ‘MERICA!!!
GM gonna counter with the Corvette Zr1
Hell yeah that thing looks badass. The multimatic suspension will be a game changer

Good to see Ford actually making a car that can compete with the GT3 RS.
Well it cant… It will never keep up with the gt3 rs.
@@Goat-vy2bi only one way to find out
@@Goat-vy2bi The GTD is made to homologate the GT3 RS. The GTD is strictly a road vehicle, not even legal for road racing. That said, you are wrong saying it won't keep up with the GT3.........it would roast the GT3. 500hp vs 800+hp? You tell me which will be quicker!
It's gonna smoke a gt3rs
This appears more bonkers and hard core than the GT3RS and Amg GT Black Series. Its insane and will sell out fast
Good Lord the GTD is something to behold!
Stunning! GM said to take on the world they had to move the engine from the C8 Corvette from the front to the back. Team Mustang at Ford said, "hold my beer." I can't wait to see and hear more on this Mustang supercar!

Yeah an GM will also sell you a mid engined flat plane V8 proper supercar for an half of the price of this mustang.

One beast that is not to be messed with🏆
GTD reminds me of my Golf 1 GTD. 4 cylinder diesel with at least a few lb/ft of torque. Can’t get that correlation out of my head…
Agreed. ‘GTD’ does sound like a diesel!
@@yissibiiytethey made a Mustang GT-R almost 20 years ago to celebrate its 50th anniversary. It's just a street legal iteration
It stands for Grand Touring Daytona, which is the class the GT3 car races in, so calling it GTD makes sense, I agree however that it sounds like a diesel, probably especially to those not in the know.
considering it's widely known racing class, it just shows that you're much more into diesel crap than into motorsport, as simple as that. Therefore, it's probably not a car for you...
@@chilopodamancer - ONLY to those not in the know! Those who follow IMSA road racing would never think of any VW, especially a smokey, sluggish diesel when they heard GTD!
325 on the fronts are insane
I would honesty pick this car over the GT3 rs
Ford arguably started the modern muscle car, and it's only fitting that they'll be the ones to end it. This car really is a beautiful sendoff to the V8 and the spirit of the muscle car.

This is well beyond the level of a base GT3 for sure@@Murkman_D
Imagine the cost of the tires for this car. That's a lot of rubber. Did you notice how big the discs are? They look as big as the rim themselves.

Man, this car is the pinnacle and a evolution of the american muscle cars! It's so awesome! Surely Red Bull partnership in F1 help ford in the making of better sport cars.
No Red Bull involvement here. This car was created and built in cooperation with Multimatic of Canada, a world wide respected engineering firm that has built race car chassis for Porsche!

I'll guess you never heard of Multimatic, a world wide respected engineering firm from Canada. They built the chassis for the Porsche 963 IMSA and WEC class racers. For this GTD, Ford sends the basic chassis to Multimatic and they hand build the car from there. State of the art high tech features in the suspension and chassis, this is not your father's Mustang!

I might be ignorant here please enlight me. The gt3 rs has around 500HP. This one has 800HP. Why are people saying for some time now this competes with the gt3 rs when it's a different power class? And considering that, a sub 7 Ring time doesn't sound too impressive
Because of power to weight ratio. Mustangs are heavy cars these days.

The GTD starts off as an off the assembly line chassis. What they call a chassis in the white.
Then it is sent to Multimatic and they modify the stock chassis to create the final product.
@@DChrls that's EXACTLY what I said. But the weight of the production car has nothing to do with the weight of the race car. The body in white gets turned into FIA GT3 spec regardless, which means even after adding the supercharger and additional cooling and DCT transaxle, it still won't weigh more than a GT3 RS.

Very unlikely. Ford has initial plans to make just 1,000 - 2,000. The 3rd gen. GT went up slightly in price after it was introduced. Wait until you see what these go for 2nd hand at auction!

Can we stop regurgitating Fords marketing slogans? This is not a GT3 rival, the GT3 is more than $100k cheaper and naturally aspirated. This is a GT2 competitor. Ford doesnt want to say that because they know that the GT2 is going to murder it so instead they claim the GT3 because they know that the 300 hp advantage is insurmountable.
Wait I am kinda confused, you said “this is not a GT3 rival” and then you said “is a GT2 competitor”
So if it’s a GT2 competitor why are you saying “they know that the GT2 is going to M it” and then you said they claim it’s a GT3
Either I am confused or you mistyped or something, am I missing something?
Not GT3, GT3 RS.
@@TecDLogic It's quite simple, the OP means that Ford is pitching the GTD as a GT3 RS competitor instead of a GT2 RS competitor because Ford knows that the 2RS will give it back to Ford, so they're happy to market the GTD as a 3RS competitor because they know the extra 300hp over the 3RS is going to be difficult to beat.
@amarjit_singh_ So what's the point exactly ? They should market the car against something they can't beat, or they aren't allowed to beat another car because they have too much hp that makes it easy to beat the competition ? So basically every car in existence shouldn't be compared to benchmarked to beat a car they are made to beat because they have something that gives them too much of an advantage which was their entire goal ? Seriously how does this make any sense at all. Not only that but the commenter said 100k cheaper when a Porsche GT3RS starts at 230k - 250k at least without adding anything on it, it picks up 300k really easily. Also fun fact, the GT2RS is less than a seconds faster on the Nurburg than the GT3RS, so Ford has a very likely chance at beating it there.
@@leofhr2966 Ford can obviously cherry-pick any car to market against, it doesn't necessarily have to be a 911 or specifically a 911 GT3 RS! Having said that, looking at the price (300k USD and dealer mark ups) and horsepower (800hp), it seem more in the league of a GT2 RS (used 991 2RS are 350-420k USD). Comparing starting prices only, 3RS and GTD are about 80k USD apart, which is about 100k USD! And fyi the fun fact is completely wrong!
Why is everybody so excited about the GTD, it is not even being released until 2025. Other rivals would have had time by then to match the performance and put out something even better.
We don't care! This Mustang will surely make its mark.
Unless that car is SUPER light it won't hang with the Porsches.
It's way lighter than the GT3RS lol. Did you not hear the words "carbon fiber body"? The GT3 race cars weigh about 1200-1300kg wet. This will likely be 1400, at most. It makes more downforce, has better suspension, more power, better weight distribution, and WAY more grip than the GT3RS. People keep thinking this a GT3RS competitor lol. It's not. It will spank it so hard all you fanboys will be shocked.
@@spdcrzyeh, it's all talk for now, and I doubt it'll be 1400kg, but I'd love to be proven wrong, and let say what you're saying is true, why did Ford say it could rival with the GT3RS instead of GT2RS
@@ryndrssn because it's a track-focused car like the GT3 RS, not a speed monster like the GT2 RS. There's a LOT more aero, and the spool valve suspension is literal race car stuff. It's what made the Camaro Z/28 a monster when it came out, and the Ford GT was the first to make it adjustable by the end user inside the car. Nearly every race team from GT3 on up to LMP1 uses DSSV shock technology, INCLUDING Porsche. I'm frankly astonished that they DIDN'T use it in the GT3 RS, since they finally upgraded from a McPherson strut to a proper double wishbone front suspension.
@@ryndrssnIt's most likely gonna rival the GT3 RS, I wouldn't think it's gonna beat it by more than a few seconds even if that at all. The car is capable, that's all I am gonna believe for now and hope since seeing a Mustang of all cars putting down some insane laps and making these supercars look silly would just be too hilariously amusing to not wanna see, I don't care about the branding or names or whatever excuse, it's just fun to watch everyone go crazy and panick or get excited about this stuff, I find it incredible that people would rather argue than be happy about this.
How come a Top Gear presenter use a mobile phone, I felt this one miss old days 😏😭
With 800hp it’s a bit easy from ford saying that’s a rival for the 525hp GT3RS .. for me it’s a rival for the GT2RS
I don’t even think it could beat the 2018 gt2 rs
Some say it’s over, but even it were true, I suspect 810 or 830 maximum
@@ericship8383it’s going to beat the gt2 rs. Look at the 670hp 3720lbs pig c8 z06 that lapped the CTMP track and NEVERA track in Europe faster than the gt2 rs recently. This GTD will beat the c8 z06 on the tracks.
The C8 ZO6 is already beating the GT2 RS and GT3 RS around many tracks.
@@YusufSayed-px2xyyeah where? Hagerty has a video where gtr3 beat the "almighty" corvette, even the m4cm was keeping up with the corvette 😂😂
Is there a limit to how many you can purchase?
I doubt you will be able to purchase just one. Sales will be done like the 3rd gen. Ford GT and only selected prospective buyers will be able to purchase.
This car is soo beautiful. Elegant but aggressive. I love it.
Everyone is going electric and Ford finally decides to go BEASTMODE on the car & price!
LOL was thinking how the Mustang has the Mach-E and the GTD now
this will definitely be a crowd favorite... as it crashes into them 😂
Yup specially from the notorious rear main seal and oil pan leaking oil directly onto the rear tires. Worthless poorly made Fords.
Not the car that crashes, but the idiot that drives it
What are you referencing?
We might be crashing into crowds but at least we're not getting discontinued like the Slowmaro and the Junkcat is getting in 2024 🤣💀
Great rims, live the paint
