It’s official folks: the Mustang GTD’s dry-sumped 5.2-litre supercharged V8 will send 804bhp and 664lb ft of torque to its rear wheels, making it not just the fastest production Mustang yet, but Ford’s most powerful car ever. That engine will also redline at 7,650rpm en route to a top speed of 202mph. Impressive.

The straight-line stats alone make this a very serious car, and that’s before you factor in the tricked-out suspension, carbon ceramic stoppers and semi-active dampers. Ford has pulled out all the stops for this thing to achieve one goal: a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap time.

For perspective, the current-generation 911 GT3 RS - perhaps the strictest, most no-compromise track-focused machine on the planet right now - can circle the Green Hell in 6m 49.3s. So, while Ford’s anoraks are adamant their car will break seven minutes, the real target will be to see just how close it’ll get to the RS.

And should it do so, we reckon the list of 7,500 U.S. residents who applied for one may swell even further… despite Ford only planning to build 1,000 GTDs. And since this is being labelled as an actual ‘supercar’, its £245k ($325k) price tag seems fitting too.

Reckon the Mustang has a chance against the 911?
