The $300,000 Ford Mustang GTD It looks like a real monster standing still, but things really get more interesting when you see and listen It’s testing at the Nürburgring. Not only does it look fast, but it also 5.2-liter turbocharged V8 engine sounds completely crazy.
YouTube Channel “CarSpyMedia” caught a few Mustang GTD Prototype around the Nordschleife in a recent industry test session. From the footage in this three-and-a-half minute video, you can see that none of the riders were holding back, and that’s good for us. It means we all get to hear what V8 engine with over 800 horsepower and eight-speed dual-clutch transmission drive shaft can be done. Ford said that GTD will be able to lap the Nürburgring in under seven minutes. That’s a blistering speed, and from what we see in this video – it looks entirely doable.

To make matters even more lovable for us, chances are this isn’t even the best thing. New GTD will make a sound. It looks like a big, square thing. exhaust pipe have been replaced by smaller ones, round head. If I had to guess, it’s actually to reduce noise, but with an engine like that under the hood, noise reduction can only go so far.
Sure, Mustang GTD would cost a lot of money (especially for a Wild horse), but who can complain when it sounds so great, accelerates so hard and corners so easily thanks to its pushrod suspension?
