Leaked Window Sticker of Mustang GTD Unveils Pricing and Surprising MPG | Carscoops
The base price has been confirmed at $318,760, excluding delivery, destination fees, and an applicable gas guzzler tax.
The MSRP of the Mustang GTD has been leaked, revealing a starting price that is lower than many anticipated. Nonetheless, it still ranks as the most expensive Mustang ever, with a base cost of $318,760. This 815 hp supercar achieves only 10 mpg in the city and 12 mpg combined.
For those who dream of American high-performance muscle rivaling exotic European cars, the Ford Mustang GTD might be the perfect embodiment of that aspiration. After years of anticipation, it is finally making its way toward customer deliveries, and we are now getting an accurate sense of what buyers will have to pay for the ultimate Mustang.
Forget the outrageous speculation of a $600,000 pony car. Ford suggested it would be closer to $325,000, and this new information validates that. Here’s a breakdown of the costs for what is officially the most expensive Mustang to date.
Stunning Power, Stunning Figures
The recently leaked window sticker displays some striking figures. For instance, this Mustang will deliver 10 mpg in city driving and 12 combined; for those measuring in liters per 100 kilometers, that's 23.5 city and 19.6 combined. This performance is attributed to its 5.2-liter Predator V8 engine, which produces 815 horsepower (607 kW). It can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in under three seconds and has set a lap time of 6:52.072 at the Nurburgring.
First identified by a user on the Mustang7G forum, the sticker indicates a base price of $318,760 plus $15,200 in options and additional fees. This includes $10,000 for a carbon fiber roof, $1,500 for red brake calipers, and $3,700 for the gas guzzler tax. Destination and delivery add another $5,500.
Why is it significantly more than Ford's usual fee of around $1,995? While it’s uncertain, it likely relates to the use of a covered transport vehicle and specialized equipment to deliver this car without any damage. This brings the total to $339,460 before state taxes. Whether this is the final price for customers is unclear, but we anticipate dealers may impose markups for both new and used models.
Is It Worth It, or Just Hype?
Now, we turn to you. Would you spend this amount on a Mustang GTD? After all, it is the most unique road-going Mustang to leave the Ford facility. It offers extensive customization, extraordinary power, and will always hold a notable place in history. With its impressive capabilities, rarity, and factory engineering, it certainly has significant bragging rights.
On the other hand, there are plenty of alternatives available. The Porsche 911 GT3 RS and upcoming Corvette ZR1 provide different types of performance with equally eye-popping price tags. Regardless, the Mustang GTD has arrived to assert its position among the elite. Now, we'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
