6506 APPLY TO OWN ALL-NEW FORD GT IN A MONTH; ALMOST 200,000 CONFIGURE FORD GT OF THEIR DREAMS
Ford received 6,506 fully completed applications from people around the world in the one-month window to apply to purchase the new EcoBoost-powered, carbon-fiber GT supercar during its first application window.
"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."
Ford is now reviewing applications from those 6,506 potential supercar buyers and will start notifying potential owners in the next 90 days. Hundreds of registrants submitted videos with their applications during the month-long application window, hoping to bolster their chances of purchasing one of the first 500 new Ford GTs. Creative applicants featured children, lighting effects, racing footage, revving engines, garage tours and life stories to show why they should own the all-new Ford GT.
The all-new production supercar is expected to start arriving in customers' garages by the end of 2016. While the initial application window is closed, Ford GT fans can continue building and sharing virtual models, building on the more than 481,000 enthusiasts in the U.S. who have visited the www.FordGT.com site since its launch April 13.
