The Ford Mustang GTD – Ford’s track-focused ‘Super’ Mustang – is the fastest US car around the Nurburgring with a time of 6:57:66.

THIS is the new Ford Capri – just not the new Ford Capri you wanted
The new electric Ford Capri is officially revealed as Ford’s take on the Volkswagen ID. 5, rather than the EV Coupe most had hoped for.
