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.

Ford's ultimate Mustang, the Mustang GTD, will be available with a livery designed to appeal to both fans of the nameplate's history and America itself.

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

The Ford Mustang GTD has already cemented its place in the canon of great American sports cars, as it’s the first U.S.-made machine to break the seven-minute barrier at the Nürburgring. The car’s 6:57.685 lap puts it ahead of plenty of serious performance machines, including the Porsche 911 GT3 and the Ferrari 296 GTB.

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

The hottest V-8 Mustang gets even more special to celebrate a few land speed records.

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.

T his is a good time to be a Ford Mustang fan. A new generation of the pony car is now on sale, and customers with deep pockets have the option of ordering the $325,000 GTD model
