The super car has a supercharged 5.2L V8 engine with 815-horsepower, 664 pound-feet of torque and can reach 202 miles per hour, “the most of any street-legal Mustang ever,” Ford said.
More than 5,000 people applied to Ford with the hope of being selected to purchase one of these collector cars — no fewer than 300 and no more than 700 will be built for each model year 2025 and 2026.
If you want one, it’s too late. The window opened in April and closed in May. The hand-picked group of approved buyers from the U.S., Canada and Mexico were notified in August. Deliveries begin in coming weeks.
The highly detailed application can take up to two hours to complete.
A team at Ford spent thousands of hours combing through applications of potential buyers and choosing a short list based on their responses to lifestyle questions including:
- How many cars did this buyer own already?
- What did they plan to do with it?
- How do they engage others with the car?
- What’s their presence on social media?
- Is charitable giving part of the applicant’s life?
This is only the second time that Ford has gone through this application process for a limited edition vehicle, the first being the Ford GT built between 2016-22, said Jim Owens, Mustang GTD brand manager.
The new limited edition Ford Mustang GTD starts at $325,000.
