As the Ford GT nears the end of its limited production run, the company has released a new Liquid Carbon Edition. Under the hood, the new version adds an additional 13 horsepower from the 2017-19 GT supercars, and the updated engine features a broader torque band and revised engine calibration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along with the engine upgrades, Ford<\/a> has also introduced the premium Akrapovi\u010d titanium exhaust as standard equipment for the GT. The new exhaust setup will provide a 4 kg weight saving over the previous system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the most striking addition is the cars new fully exposed carbon fibre<\/a> bodywork which uses a special clear-coat finish to achieve that under glass finish. The Liquid Carbon edition also features carbon fibre wheels as standard along with a wide range of internal and external customisable options including titanium lug nuts, six-point racing harness anchors, five interior options and five calliper colours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The standard GT 2020 will be priced at $500,000 for the basic model while the Liquid Carbon version is reported to be $750,000. Deliveries of the new 2020 GT will continue until Ford ends GT production for good in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
