2019 Ford GT MkII
The GT's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 EcoBoost engine has been tuned to 700 horsepower, 53 more than the road car and 200 more than the race car. It uses the same seven-speed dual-clutch automatic as the road car, albeit with new tuning, and the Mk II remains rear-wheel drive. A new roof-mounted air intake looks awesome and feeds the auxiliary clutch, engine, and transmission coolers. There's also a new high-capacity air-to-air outboard-mounted intercooler that incorporates a water sprayer to maximize its effectiveness under sustained high-load situations.
Ford says the Mk II is more than 200 pounds lighter than the road car thanks to the removal of the hardware required for its adjustable ride height. Instead, there are five-way adjustable dampers along with a fixed, lower ride height. The Mk II uses the road car's carbon-ceramic brake rotors, while new 19-inch wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport GT slick racing tires.
Ford says that only 45 units of the Mk II will be built at $1.2 million each, which is around $700,000 more expensive than a regular GT, and it will be sold directly to customers by Multimatic, not Ford. The Mk II will start production at the regular Ford GT's plant in Markham, Ontario
