The Ultimate Homage to American Speed
Ford has elevated its already extraordinary Mustang GTD with a special Spirit of America edition, creating what may be the most collectible modern Mustang ever produced. This limited-run variant honors both the Mustang's 60-year legacy and the groundbreaking achievements of American land-speed record pioneer Craig Breedlove, whose "Spirit of America" jet-powered streamliners shattered barriers in the 1960s.

"The Mustang GTD embodies the same relentless pursuit of performance that drove visionaries like Breedlove to push beyond perceived limits," explains Jim Owens, Mustang GTD Brand Manager. "This special edition celebrates that all-American spirit of innovation that continues to define performance vehicles today."

The Ultimate Collector's Challenge
Ford has made acquiring the Mustang GTD Spirit of America as exclusive as the vehicle itself:
- Production limited to unknown (but extremely small) numbers
- Prospective buyers must complete a rigorous application process
