MUSTANG GTR

The 2005 Ford Mustang GTR is a special edition of the original model of the Ford Mustang. It was developed in April 7, 2004 in a 5.0 liter concept. This car was developed by the same team that brought you the Ford GT.
 
Passing to the performance of the Mustang GTR's horsepower is an amzing amount of power that includes 440 hp. But the engine can be tuned to make the GTR produce the amount of 500 or more horsepower.
 
The GTR's design is pretty exclusive, The front end is a further evolution of the Mustang GT coupe and The Mustang GT-R features the classic pony in the grille, surrounded by modern materials like carbon fiber as well as advanced aerodynamic treatments like ground-hugging front and side splitters. The 20" tires on the GTR are a realistic forecast of the next evolution in racing rubber. The rear quarter windows are blocked out to accommodate the fuel delivery "dry-brake" system on the driver’s side.

The GTR's interior was really not fancy but full of performance a roll cage was added along with Sparco Racing seats. The chassis was taken out to the body shell to receive reinforcements for the safety on the track.
 
This is my favorite ride it really doesn't look fancy but performance it's what reallly counts. I really hoped that you liked this car and maybe it will become one of your favorite cars. I also want to thank FordMuscle Webmagazine for all the information they provided me. Here i also went ahead and added some cool pictures. Hope you like them!
