Ford begins taking applications for all-new GT Supercar
DUBAI, April 13, 2016
Ford has begun taking owner applications for the all-new Ford GT ultra-high-performance supercar.
Limited production of the all-new Ford GT inspired Ford Performance to create a unique, customer-focused experience to help select potential owners for the new supercar, said a statement.
Approved applicants will work with the new Ford GT Concierge Service for a personalised purchase experience.
Henry Ford III, global marketing manager, Ford Performance, said: “The purchase process for the Ford GT is as unique as our all-new supercar.
“We understand GT customers are strong ambassadors for Ford Motor Company, and we look forward to providing them a service as distinct as the car itself.”
The Ford GT is the most advanced Ford production vehicle, featuring the latest in lightweighting, aerodynamics and EcoBoost engine technology – an innovation showcase for the Ford brand, said the statement.
The applicants will have an opportunity to identify their preferred Ford dealership in GT-approved markets and, if approved, will complete their purchase with the help of their dealer and the new Ford GT Concierge Service.
Accepted applicants from around the world will be contacted by the concierge and provided a tailored experience – not only through the ordering and delivery but through years of ownership.
The new Ford GT website will also offer a configurator that allows anyone to build a virtual GT and easily share their dream combinations from a number of colour, wheels and interior themes with the world through social media.
For production, eight exterior colours can be paired with one of seven different stripe colors, giving the Ford GT customer many choices to keep their vehicle as unique as they are.
Pricing for the Ford GT is expected to have a starting price in the mid-$400,000s, excluding destination and delivery.
The Ford GT will be one of the rarest Ford products. Production is limited to 250 units per year, and the initial ordering period will cover the first two years of production - 500 vehicles.
The web-based application process for the first round of applications for the all-new Ford GT will close on May 12. - TradeArabia News Service
