Love how they FINALLY went with the 1967 concave taillights!
Yes sir, I've already applied for ownership of the GTD days after it's announcement a couple months ago. I've just started the second phase of my ownership. It's a hurry up and wait process, I've got my fingers crossed, wish me luck. My 22 gt500 carbon is a beast on the track easily beating exotics twice it's price. The GTD should be a straight up destroyer of supercars if everything is true to form. I can't wait.
That's really exciting!
Please make videos if you receive the car brother. Many people would love to see it!
You must have a dame good job to afford 2 nice cars a gt500 ate nothing to sniz 😊 at. So if this G.T.D. is mostly made of carbon fiber it most be North of 100k 😢. Well good luck to you Mr. money bags.
@@scottstudebaker2959 Closer to 300k for the GTD, I've owned a trucking company since 96 and a construction company since 05. I do okay, no where close to the 1% but I'm able to afford a nice toy every now and then, besides you can't take it with you. As my wife says, the only difference between men and boys are the price of their toys. (Says the woman with more shoes than I care to count)
@@deathscythehell7937can I have your construction company? Or maybe ur wife atleast ?
It seems Ford is sooooooo close to recreating the Hoonicorn Mustang for us. I agree with the twin turbo comment over the supercharger. All wheel drive...Ken Block lay'd it down for Ford to pick up. This might also create the stability required to get the Mustang invited back to "Cars and Coffee".
Even sitting here eating my favorite doesn't have me drooling half as much watching this video. 😊 I thank you, sir.
Now I'm hungry :) Thanks so much!
@theemptygarage LOL well then, "feast" your eyes on more of that delicious GTD 😋. Quite satisfying, I hear.
Anyone complaining about the price of this Mustang isn’t a Mustang fanatic. Price is no option for a car like this. If I had the scratch I would get it It’s a must have for any Stang lover. This is Fing engineering art. All I’ll be able to afford is the 1:18 scale. But I’m not mad. I’m just glad Ford has put this kind of love and dedication behind the Mustang. I’ve owned four Mustangs. And I’ve loved them all.
Couldn't agree more!
So no complaints other than you can’t afford the car you say not to complain about it’s price lol got it. I think lol 😝
Such an outrageous car!
Yeah man, let's go ford.. let's do this again, we did it with the gt40 at LeMans.. let's get'em
Agreed
Great video! And amazing car!!
Thanks for watching! Couldn't agree more!
love this car
Couldn't agree more!
😂❤😅Bitchin rockin awesome sonic 👌 😅beautiful ride, just add aero- dynamic holes in the rear slanted arms on that fabulous spoiler, ok 👍
It would be a dream to have that 5.4 monster engine in a production street car
On board with that!
It would be great if they can homologate it for the trans Am racing series....
You could drive the 2025 Ford GTD to the Trans Am racing event while entering and taking the win, then drive away from the event, with repeating this through the entire Tans Am series. Just because it has liceince plates for the street does not mean it is not a qualified Trans Am series contender
That won't happen. The current Mustang used in Trans Am has as much if not more HP and is plenty strong. The GTD is the street version of the Mustang GT3 used in SCCA road racing. The GTD has equipment and technology that excludes it from SCCA road racing. It is really a street version of the GT3 Mustang.
Hey all, thanks so much for checking out what we're up to here at The Empty Garage! We're having a blast creating this content and are looking for some feedback on what kind of cars, trucks, SUVs, EVs, or otherwise that you'd like to see us review? We're aiming to dive deep on some of the more obscure details that make all these vehicles so interesting, but would like to make sure YOU find them interesting too! So let us know - thanks!
Lord have mercy !!!
I’m in love
Same
Defies description? Here ya go: it looks dopey. See, easily described.
DJ Khalid Another One LOL, Just another one of those cars I'll never be able to afford to buy..
Fun to dream though!
Not white that attitude
I am Khaled from kingdom of Bahrain 🇧🇭 ford GT in ford GTD lover 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸best in best car in the world 🌎 perfect in perfect car in all this world 💜💜💜🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸GTD beautiful name D💙🇺🇸GTD🇺🇸💜💙🇺🇸💜💙🇺🇸💜💙
We're big fans too! Thanks for checking us out!
I want one ,I am getting one
Can u afford one ?
Damb it! After end of 12 year relationship with mother of my 16 n 8 yr old daughters. I preyed id never fall in love again!
If u hadn’t u could have afforded this gtd instead of that alimony
It is still a little tall, big and heavy for a GT3 so Ford gave it 800 hp.This is great for taller drivers in the road car. Unfortunately, the IMSA and WEC track car was forced to be naturally aspirated and given 250 less hp.So it is slower on the turns than the other GT3`s and not allowed to have the blazing straight line speed where it would kick ass. The only way it will win a race is if the other cars break down, make mistakes or the BOP is changed somehow by the officials, Ha.It`s weird that the homologated road car would beat the race car on track.
how is the quality control?
Good question and one we don't have the answer to, though we certainly hope it aligns with how amazing this car is :)
What’s the seconds to 60miles per hour?
There are no official times yet, but estimates hover around 3.5 seconds.
I Drool When i Sleep Alot
You had me until you mentioned the 300,000 price tag. 😮 I will stick with my Roush Stage 3.
It is definitely no cheap date and I bet your Roush Stage 3 is pretty sweet!
never heard of it till now, that's actually a really amazing value, only an extra 25k to get 750hp and other goodies, wow!
The roush stage 3 is probably faster than this expensive mustang it's just gonna give headaches when it breaks down
😮
$300k would buy a house???? 😂😂😂😂😂 That's just a deposit in some places in my home town. Lol.
that spoiler looks ignorant 🤣🤣
Does it still have that garbage transmission?
Do u still poo from Uranus ? Or has it started from the mouth also ?
They are making a track car here so I do not understand the logic of a supercharger -- turbos would make more sense?
You could make an argument for both, but I think it's fair to say the wizards at Ford know what they're doing :) Thanks for checking us out!
Actually, the track car is the Mustang GT3, and this GTD car is a racer born just for the street, as it won't qualify for any road racing class due to its supercharger and some other mods. The 2nd. gen. Ford GT had the same restriction.
This car starts at $300,000 ? It's worth every penny.
Practically giving it away :)
When did “torques” become a unit of measurement for torque? And “NORburgring” out of Nürburgring? And “bronze color magnesium wheels”? No…they are magnesium color.
Just channeling our inner Jeremy Clarkson and having some fun :)
More impressive if it was a v10 they dropped the ball with this same old v8
Going to have to respectfully disagree with you that Ford dropped the ball with this V8 - it's an impressive motor.
Power to weight ratio means more. V10 would kill it
Looks like a gt3 rs from the back 😂
We'd love to see those two head to head on the track...
That's one of the cars Jim Farley, CEO of Ford has targeted for the GTD, along with the Mercedes Black Series!
Whoever baulks at the price of this has no appreciation of the engineering that went into the car.
It's really something!
300k. NO F--KING WAY
It's a crazy amount of money buuuut it's also a crazy amount of car!
Yeah, and some said the same thing about the $500,000 2nd. gen. Ford GT. It won, and they lost!
Let's be honest who's online prowling for body parts cuz we'll never own this vehicle
This isn’t built by Ford. It’s a Multimatic car. Ford just supplied the motor.
And what a motor it is!
Drinks all around.
Cheers to that!
Please review your incorrect details on the gt350 and gt500 and your incorrect image of the Mustang Terminator 2003-04 by using a 2000 Cobra R image.
Thank you for the insight, we're constantly working to improve. And thank you for watching!
I'll take it if it's free I can't afford an old mustang much less a 300 thousand dollar mustang
The problem I see is…It’s still a FORD!!
Your family name will never hold the same weight 😩
@@JoseLopez-vp8vu I could honestly care less hahaha, I wouldn’t want a family name that people talk about the unreliability of a product I make. Ford has been unreliable and junk for years and years. I love Ford fan boys getting butt hurt about someone’s opinions. You made my day.. THANKS! 😉
The people that created the Assembly line and mass production Yall really are weird
Not sure why you got 2 thumbs up. Considering Ford was the ones who produced the assembly line so we could have choices. After 100+ yrs….they’re still around.
And this is coming from somebody who drives a Subaru Forester
I can already picture that Rear Wing bending / flexing @ Speed. NOT For Me @ 1/2 the price
You really made this statement regarding the rear wing flexing or bending? Obviously you haven't watched world class super cars found in IMSA turning laps at the Rolex 24 at Daytona. (The “swan-neck” rear wing is another distinctive feature-this configuration has been en vogue in GT and sports prototype racing for the past decade). Current GT3 cars uses a similar Swan-Neck wing minus the active part. The GTD uses an active rear wing and suspension that raises and lowers the Mustang's wing and suspension during laps adjusting the aerodynamics. The active wing certainly isn't going to bend. Do some research. By the way. Try to build this car for half the price it's listed using it's special Multimatic active suspension, carbon fiber body panels, 8 speed transverse DCT. A 5.2 supercharged Dry sump performance engine, Titanium exhaust system and it's 20-inch lightweight magnesium wheels, with Michelin R-compound tires measuring 345 in front and 375 in the rear for the stickiest street-legal race-spec tire Ford could get for a road car. When the 2017 Gen 2 Ford GT Supercar was introduced at $500,000. Many people like yourself complained about the price until it started starting bringing 1 million dollars at auctions. Like the Ford GT. I believe the limited production GTD will also become sn investment Super Car.
@jd6356 - Suggest you read up on the virtues of carbon fiber son..... it's far lighter and 10 times stronger than steel. That wing will absolutely not flex under load! F1 cars are made with carbon fiber and titanium for extreme stress absorption under load.
That's cool but can it take out the 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT 170
Likely not on the drag strip, but based on what Ford is saying, it would be no contest on the race track.
Okay I got it
I would like to be a witness to those two racing
Agreed
@@theemptygarage- Don't be too quick to diss it on a drag strip as it's 345 rear tires, better weight balance and much lighter anticipated weight should be enough to dispatch the Challenger on the strip!
With carbon fiber in a fender bender the entire car is totaled.
But maybe if you can afford the car, you're not too worried about repair costs...
I like it a lot but I don't love it. I would buy a more prestigious sports car for $300k. Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc. Some of these prestigious brands with a price tag of $300k may not be as fast but you won't look like a backyard hot fodder. For example, back in the 1990s in Redondo Beach, California a Mustang Saleen was ignored when a Ferrari 308 GTS arrived at the scene. The Mustang Saleen is faster but the Ferrari is no slouch in curves with the blondes. 😂😂😂😂.
It doesn't matter, it's just going to wipeout as it leaves a car meet. 🤦🏻♂️
That'd be one expensive wipeout :)
What an ignorant and dull-minded comment 😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡
Lame.stp jating.jobody who will on this his car will drive like u and your grandpa!
Looks like a Dodge Charger Hellcat got drunk with a Porsche 912.
I can't see that in the slightest.
Now that has to be a completely undecipherable image that you conjured up. I'd say it accurately looks far more like the nasty, vicious threatening beast that Ford created from the more subdued stock Mustang.
Looks kinda Porsche
Cool yes Just Not $300K Cool and I'm Not Saying That Because I'm Not Rich 🤣
Do you think you'd feel differently after getting behind the wheel though?!
@ChrisPBacon198 - Coolness doesn't dictate a high price. Being literally hand built at Multimatic and using first class materials like billet aluminum and carbon fiber, along with superb engineering does! Like the 3rd. gen Ford GT, nothing was spared in designing and building this super Mustang!
Not worth it there's cheaper mustangs out there with more HP than 800 all it is that it's just gonna cost more money to fix it when it breaks down
300k nope
I will like to ask ford ceo what is so great or awesom about a car that the majority of average hard working americans can't afford people dont get impressed with something they can't never have or enjoy this is not the ultimate machine it is the ultimate booshit.
It’s a sick car but it’s barely competing with a GT3RS and it’s more money. Why? No reason.
We have yet to see it go but somehow you can such thing lol.
Be pretty fun to see those two head to head on a track though
@@voodoodiecast the fastest possible advertised times aren’t equal to the GT3RS.
@@TheCdM1981 they are aiming a sub 7minute lap time we don’t if it’s 6:59 or 6:50. Just like they did with the last GT500 they said 700+hp which then turns out 760hp
@@TheCdM1981 - And where did you see "advertised times."? The car has yet to be built! As a matter of fact, Jim Farley has targeted the Porsche GT3 and the Mercedes Black series with this beast!
Lots of fact checking needed in this video. Images of 2000 R when referencing the terminator? The GT350 Voodoo was a 5.2, not 5.4 News to me! Your garage is going to STAY empty if this is the content you are pushing.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
😂😂Whaaaaaaaaaaa'aaaa!😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@doingcarthings thanks for the call out and clarification. Both errors we should have caught before this one went live. We are looking to get better with each video and sincerely respect the need for detail accuracy when it comes to cool rides on this channel. Have a good one.
@theemptygarage I highly respect your ability to take accountability and overly harsh criticism and reply respectfully and accept the critiques. Props and I look forward to your success 👍
pffft. An American built 5.2 smallblock that blows all you simple minded Europeans off. We own road course racing. Always have, always will. This car will reestablish our dominance.
It’s the 2024 mustang not 2025 because I heard 2024 will be the last of the mustangs being created
According to Ford, it's a 2025: ford.shorthandstories.com/FordMustangGTD/
@HarryElliott - You heard wrong me boy! Ford just announced that they will offer a supercharged V8 until at least 2028, and it sure won't be powering any SUVs or Transit Vans!
I’ll stick with a Kia stinger.
HUGE fan of the Kia Stinger! But wouldn't mind getting behind the wheel of this Mustang :)
LOL You absolutely should!
Dampeners?? what sort of word is that? nearly as awful as "GOTTEN" !! its ... DAMPERS !!! sheesh. kebab.
A slip of the tongue - thanks for the heads up!
... and come Godzilla and f...k all sport cars
This is set up very similar to how NASCAR has their cars set up I think this is what they copied
Definitely pulls from the pros!
Yeahhhhh,but what anybody,or anyone fails to realize is that you just can't plain flat out buy one! You gotta go through all kinds of change if you want one, especially for a Black Person, no matter what if it' Male, or Female that's of any Melanin Decent Skin Tone,."WE WON'T BE ABLE TO PURCHASE ONE! Period,Point, Blank!" Unless you have some DAMN Good Kneepads.
@paxtongay5703 - Don't tell Willy T. Ribbs that! The qualifications for purchasing this car have nothing whatsoever to do with ethnicity! Look them up if you want to know what Ford is looking for in prospective buyers.
what an intelligent comment😂
cmon let's be honest, that rims , front fender and the all rear are just ugly.
Have to respectfully disagree - LOVE the whole vibe!
@Mcr705 - I must disagree with you, and back the millions of fans who think it is off the wall gorgeous! As they say, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and some people are just not good at beholding!! LOL
Can I rim Uranus ?
Oh I bet Ferrari Lambo Porsche are shitting themselves..... I would put my GTr on track against it
GT-R cant even beat a GT500 On track. Chill out dudes 🤭🤭
The Ferrari will always win with the curves of a blondie in his passenger’s seat. 😂😂😂😂
