Following its debut, the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD – the most extreme pony car to ever grace this earth – has embarked on a bit of a world tour. That will soon include appearances at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the 24 Hours of Spa, and the Goodwood Festival of Speed, while Ford is already testing the GTD at the legendary Nurburgring in Germany as it attempts to set an impressive lap time there. In the meantime, the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD will be shown at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this coming weekend, where The Blue Oval just debuted a special variant of the new model.
That new offering is the 2025 Ford Mustang GTD Carbon Series, which features a host of additions that make it unique from the regular model. That starts on the outside with Chroma Flame paint in this case, which joins Polymimetic Gray, Race Red, Shadow Black, Frozen White, and Lightning Blue as the exterior color options for the GTD. However, the Carbon Series has some unique touches adorning its carbon-fiber body, including an unpainted hood, roof, and rear Tech Deck, Magnetite wheels, available body color or contrasting painted stripes, and Grabber Blue, Race Red, or black-painted brake calipers.
The key component of this special 2025 Ford Mustang GTD model, however, is its Performance Pack, which adds dive planes and a larger splitter to the front fascia, underbody flaps, and a drag reduction system to the rear wing, which work together to reduce drag in a straight line without sacrificing aerodynamic grip during cornering. The Performance Pack also includes a Lightweight Package, which removes some sound-deadening material and adds the aforementioned 20-inch magnesium wheels, along with a unique front fascia. The Performance pack isn’t just reserved for the Carbon Series, however, as it’s available across the entire Mustang GTD range.
These additions are a key part of Ford’s quest to lap the Nurburgring in under seven minutes, and starting tomorrow, European customers will be able to apply for the privilege of purchasing one. The North American application window closed back in late May, though we’re still learning more about the forthcoming supercar every day – in fact, Ford just unveiled the GTD’s unique in-car suspension “window” a couple of weeks ago.
