Celebrating American Ingenuity: Meet The Mustang GTD Spirit of America

Ford is taking patriotism and performance to the next level with the release of the Mustang GTD Spirit of America – an all-new version of the iconic Mustang that celebrates six decades of engineering excellence and racing dominance. If you’re into high-octane thrills and head-turning style, buckle up because this is the most exciting Mustang yet.

A Legacy Built on Speed and Innovation

The new Mustang GTD Spirit of America honors a legacy that began in 1964 when the original Mustang shattered expectations by taking on Europe’s best at the Tour de France. Fast forward to today, and Mustang remains a symbol of American ingenuity, becoming the first car from an American brand to conquer the legendary Nürburgring in under seven minutes.

“Mustang GTD is the pinnacle of Mustang performance. Mustang GTD Spirit of America celebrates the daring behind that performance,” said Mustang GTD Brand Manager Jim Owens. This special edition pays tribute to icons like Craig Breedlove, the land speed pioneer who broke the 500- and 600-mph barriers in the 1960s.

Striking Design That Screams ‘USA’

Ford Design has outdone itself with a striking Performance White body adorned with twin racing stripes in Race Red and Lightning Blue, evoking the red, white, and blue Mustang tribar logo from 1964. These bold stripes aren’t just a throwback; they mirror the look of Craig Breedlove’s record-breaking racing overalls.

The GTD Spirit of America doesn’t just look fast; it’s packed with aggressive aerodynamic elements crafted from exposed carbon fiber. From the front splitter to the rear spoiler—complete with Race Red end plates and a bright “MUSTANG” wordmark underneath—every detail emphasizes performance.

Performance That Redefines the Apex Predator

Under the hood, the Mustang GTD Spirit of America is pure muscle. With 815 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque, this beast hits a blistering top speed of 202 mph, making it the most powerful street-legal Mustang in history. The Mustang GTD Spirit of America comes standard with the Performance package, ensuring no corner is too sharp and no straightaway too short.

A Cockpit Built for Speed and Style

Inside, the Mustang GTD Spirit of America is a work of art. The leather-trimmed seats with Dinamica inserts feature a Race Red gradient stripe down the middle and Re-Entry White accents, while Victory Blue stitching adds a subtle yet striking contrast. Paddle shifters, a shift ring, and an IP badge—crafted from 3D-printed titanium—take the cockpit’s high-tech aesthetic to the next level.

Ready to Own the Road

Whether it’s the twin racing stripes, carbon fiber accents, or jaw-dropping power, the Mustang GTD Spirit of America is a car that commands attention. Ford has built this machine to celebrate American perseverance and ingenuity, reminding the world that the Mustang is not just a car—it’s a movement.

Pricing hasn’t been announced for the special edition model yet, but it’ll be even more than the GTD’s already hefty $325,000 sticker, considering the additional features (Performance Package, etc), along with the exclusivity factor. While I don’t think it’ll hit the $500K mark, I bet it will be close!

So, gentlemen, are you ready to claim your piece of American automotive history? The 2025 Mustang GTD Spirit of America awaits. This isn’t just a car; it’s a statement. Get ready to turn heads, drop jaws, and leave the competition eating your dust at the track.
