The initial window to apply to be one of the first 500 owners of the EcoBoost-powered, carbon-fiber Ford GT is now closed. Over the course of 30 days, Ford received more than 6,500 fully completed applications, 32 percent of which arrived during the final six days of registrations. Some applicants hoped to gain the upper hand by bolstering their submission with videos featuring children, special effects, garage tours, and more.
According to the latest press release, Ford is now reviewing the applications and will be notifying potential buyers in the next 90 days. The all-new GT supercar will begin arriving in select garages before the end of the year.
“We’re excited by the amount of enthusiasm fans are showing for the new Ford GT,” says Dave Pericak, director, Global Ford Performance. “This initial application window is just one of many ways fans and potential owners will have to connect with our all-new supercar even before it hits the streets.”
