Ultimate Performance Unleashed: The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD

Ever wondered what would happen if Ford took the spirit of the Mustang and added a little fighter jet DNA? The 2025 Ford Mustang GTD is what. With a sub-7-minute time on the grueling Nürburgring circuit securing its international reputation as an elite supercar, the Mustang GTD is the fastest and most powerful street-legal pony car made yet.

Fighter Jet DNA

Even the highest-performing vehicles on the planet must contend with physics. The same four forces that govern the behavior of the world's fighter jets like the legendary Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor also impacted the Mustang GTD. And Ford drew more than inspiration from the F-22; Ford makes the Mustang GTD's serial plate and available 3D-printed paddle shifters out of titanium recycled from decommissioned Raptors.

Thrust

The core of the Mustang GTD's unbelievable performance is a supercharged 5.2-liter V8 based on the legendary Predator engine. With a redline of 7,650 RPM and the ability to pump out an unbelievable 815 horsepower, the Mustang GTD can attain a top speed of a jaw-dropping 202 miles per hour. The engine is slung low for an improved center of gravity and mated to an 8-speed transaxle for incredible performance.

The engine is fed its oil by the first dry-sump oil system featured on a street-legal Mustang, which keeps the engine well supplied with lubrication even when operating under high-G cornering conditions.

Lift

The engine's massive output offers massive lift, which is countered by the massive carbon fiber spoiler securely mounted to the C-pillar. The resulting downforce keeps the wheels in full contact with the road for better handling. Available active aerodynamics also help tune lift and drag depending on prevailing conditions.

Drag

At the kinds of speed the Mustang GTD can generate, far more energy is used to overcome air resistance than to overcome friction from the ground. Ford designed the Mustang GTD's body for maximum airflow. Available vented front fenders help reduce drag by letting air flow through the wheel well rather than build up pressure, and the available underbody aerodynamic plate helps improve airflow underneath the body.

Weight

The Mustang GTD features a stunning power-to-weight ratio and nearly 50/50 balance. Lightweight yet strong carbon fiber is used for more than just body panels; even the driveshaft is made of carbon fiber to save weight. The exhaust system is also made of titanium for weight savings, and the available forged magnesium wheels reduce weight even further.

The 2025 Mustang GTD supercar may be available by application only, but there's a stable full of pony cars just waiting for their chance to show you what they can do. Test drive a thrilling 2025 Mustang today at Randy Wise Ford in Ortonville, MI.

4 Highlights of the 2025 Ford Expedition

There are lots of features we could highlight in the 2025 Ford Expedition, but we had to narrow this down to a select few. This SUV is roomy, practical, and strong, and it comes in two sizes for people with different needs. 1. The Fantastic Size The standard-sized Expedition allows you to fit your cargo into 22.9, 69.9, or 108.5 cubic feet of space. That's the amount of room behind the third, second, and first rows, respectively. Both the second and third rows can be folded down completely in every trim. The cargo space can vary even more depending on how much cargo and how many passengers you're traveling with. Every seat in the third and second rows can be folded flat independently of the others in some trims, or you can fold down any combination of them together. There's a little more room in the MAX. Behind the third, second, and first rows, in that order, there are 37.4, 84.5, and 123.1 cubic feet of space. more 2. The Excellent Strength The maximum towing capacity of the Expedition varies slightly based on the model you choose. Standard Expedition models can tow up to 6,000 pounds in 4x2 versions and 9,600 pounds in 4x4 models. The Expedition MAX tows up to 6,300 pounds in 4x2 trims and 9,000 pounds if you're driving a 4x4 model. 3.

SiriusXM with 360L is standard, so everyone driving this car can explore ad-free curated music, news, sports, podcasts, and other forms of talking-based entertainment. If you'd rather listen to your own carefully made playlists, then you can do so by connecting your smartphone to the system and asking it to play songs from the music streaming apps you've got on your phone. You can also do so much more when your phone is connected to the system, including accessing your calendar, checking your voicemail, listening to your text messages, and answering calls. 4. The Comfort The Expedition doesn't cut corners regarding comfort. All trims have a 10-way power-adjustable seat for the driver, giving you an incredible amount of control over your seat's position for maximum comfort. The front seat passenger gets a similar amount of control, as the seat is an 8-way power-adjustable one. The front seats have power lumbar and recline, too.
