Limited to 200 units, these cars now trade hands for as much as $500,000. So, it’s clear why Ford would want to revive the name, but what could it be used for?
There are several possibilities. The first (and most exciting) is that Ford plans to introduce a new compact sports car that would be sold alongside the Mustang GT. It could be off-road-focused (like the new Mustang Mach-E Rally), or Ford could go in the opposite direction by making it a low-volume supercar (but the Mustang GTD already has that covered).
Would it be limited to 200 examples like the original? If so, it would be a high-priced toy for collectors and wealthy enthusiasts. But if it’s an EV, many more cars would be made.
While gearheads would prefer a gas-powered engine, the Mach-E GT Performance Edition’s drivetrain with 480 horsepower and 634 lb-ft of torque would provide immense performance.
