Ford is offering the first special edition Mustang GTD to mark the achievements of American ingenuity in what it's calling the Spirit of America. A Hyundai Tucson crashes into a 2000 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R in a North Carolina dealership, causing extensive damage.

The GTD models are part of Ford's plans to expand the Mustang nameplate into the higher echelons of the sports car and racing worlds.

This latest iteration—effectively a special appearance package—borrows its name from a land-speed racing legend.

The new Ford Mustang GTD Spirit of American Special Edition boasts 815 horsepower and will be showcased at the 2025 Detroit Auto Show

Ford Motor Co. used its kickoff Thursday evening of the Detroit Auto Show to express its commitment to the event that for decades has made Detroit a destination, unveiling two special-edition Mustangs.

The super coupe's 815-hp supercharged V-8 remains the same, but a host of styling and aerodynamic tweaks make this edition special.
