Concept Mustangs:
2005 Mustang GT-R
Concept |
|
|
|
|
Powered by a 5.0 "Cammer" crate
engine producing 440 horsepower, the GT-R features a Ford Racing-supplied
TTC T-56 six-speed manual transmission, a carbon fiber hood, Brembo brakes,
huge 20-inch wheels with Pirelli slicks, and a full aero treatment,
including front and side splitters and a composite rear spoiler. Inside, the
GT-R receives a Sparco racing seat with a five-point safety harness, a
chrome-moly roll cage, and a Formula One-style steering wheel with
integrated warning signals, tachometer, gear selection, and telemetry.
Styling cues on the GT-R may be a preview for future SVT and/or Shelby
Mustangs, like the quarter window scoops, grille treatment, and taillights.
Ford Racing will offer a GT-R body kit for 2005
Mustangs. |
