Ford Mustang GTD Buyer Reveals the Options on the Secret Car Configurator

Unfortunately for the supercar configurator enthusiasts among us, Ford does not have a public means of speccing out its supercar-fighting Mustang GTD online. The brand has chosen to restrict that tool only to buyers approved by its own selection process, which is as close to closed-doors as online configurators get. Fortunately, though, Ford seems to have no restrictions against future owners showing the public what that exclusive tool looks like. One of those approved buyers, Manny Khoshbin, shared the configurator in a YouTube video uploaded last week. The clip reveals a few specifics about how Ford's ultimate supercharged Mustang will be built, including some of the option packages and a few of the visual customization selections available for GTD buyers. The most notable option is the previously-announced Performance Package, which is headlined by the car's DRS-style active rear wing. The package also features a painted carbon fiber splitter and diffuser, plus lightweight half-shafts and the all-important lightweight carpeting. Just six paint colors are available in the car's standard palette, but an optional paint-to-sample-style program allows significant customization. Two interior options, a primary black and a black-gray two tone, are available. An optional carbon package adds more exposed carbon fiber to the exterior, while an optional titanium package adds larger paddle shifters behind the steering wheel. The Spirit of America and Carbon Series, two special edition GTD models already announced by Ford, are separate complete packages at the end of the configurator. Khoshbin says that the Spirit of America edition is limited to 20% of productionm and has already sold out for 2025. Unlike many other configurators, Ford's GTD tool does not seem to show price changes added by specific packages and options. hat said, Ford enthusiast site Ford Authority reports that the two special editions, Spirit of America and Carbon Edition, are priced at a whopping $429,000 and $428,000, respectively. If options are an additional charge on top of that, the ultimate Mustang certainly does not come cheap. Then again, with a base price of $325,000, it's always been a long way off from the ranks of the best affordable sports cars where siblings like the Mustang Dark Horse play.
