Following its debut, the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD is going through a unique process in terms of how it’s sold – one that we haven’t seen since the Ford GT. Those that wish to plunk down $300k+ for what promises to be the highest-performing road-going, factory-built pony car in history must apply for that privilege, after all, and be selected to do so. In the meantime, we’re continuing to learn more and more about the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD and what makes it so unique, with the latest revelation pertaining to its trick suspension system.
As The Blue Oval points out, the semi-active suspension with a pushrod-actuated rear end featuring Multimatic Adaptive Spool Valve rear shock absorbers in the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD is quite simply a work of art, though traditionally, these parts aren’t something anyone would be able to see without crawling underneath the car. As such, FoMoCo decided to install an in-cabin suspension window that’s also visible from outside of the car, which measures around 24 inches wide by 10 inches tall and is made of polycarbonate with a scratch-resistant coating.
“The rear suspension is designed for purpose, but it’s also just a beautiful thing to look at,” said Jim Owens, Mustang GTD marketing manager. “It would have been a shame for us to hide it away never to be seen. With the suspension window, owners can admire the blue and gold accents on the dampers without removing the tech panel, and the passenger can literally watch the suspension in action. With a car as capable as Mustang GTD, we had to do something that’s just plain cool and owners will appreciate.”
The application window for the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD in the U.S. and Canada just closed, but next month, customers in Mexico, the Middle East, and Europe will get their chance to apply. Thus far, some familiar names and existing racers have put their name in that proverbial hat, though they’ll be required to put down a hefty deposit if they’re chosen to purchase one – and dealers will make a nice chunk of change for selling one, too. In the meantime, the GTD is currently in Europe starting its tour of that region, which will be highlighted by an official lap time attempt at Germany’s iconic Nurburgring.
