The Ford GT Mk II is a new track version of the GT super car.It has 700HP version of the GT's twin-turbo V6 engine, a racing inspired aero package and a stripped out interior.Only 45 will be built at a cost of $1.2 million each.

Ford has unveiled the Ford GT Mk II at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in the U.K. As they expected, it's a track only version of the GT super car that had been developed using knowledge gained from the GT's soon to be over racing program. The GT version of  road car is limited in design and engineering by global homologation requirements. while the Le Mans winning race car had bogged down by racing class restrictions and regulations. so the designers and engineers were able to go wild with the Mk II, as it doesn't need to adhere to any set of rules.

Immediately noticeable is the massive rear wing that replaces the regular GT's active unit. Ford said that the dual element wing exceeds the downforce produced by the race car wing. Other aerodynamic enhancements include a huge rear diffuser, a new front splitter, louvered front fenders, and dive planes on the front bumper. Ford says the Mk II makes over 400 percent more downforce than the roadgoing GT and that it will pull over 2.00 g's of lateral grip.

The Ford GT's Twin-Turbocharged 3.5liter V6 EcoBoost engine has been tuned into 700 Horsepower. It uses 7 speed dual clutch automatic transmission as the road car. Although with new tuning the Ford Mk II remains rear wheel drive. A new roof mounted air intake looks awesome which feeds the auxiliary clutch, engine, and transmission of the car cooler. There's also a new high-capacity air-to-air outboard-mounted intercooler that incorporates a water sprayer to maximize its effectiveness under sustained high-load situations.

Ford says the Mk II is more than 200 pounds lighter than the road car thanks to the removal of the hardware required for its adjustable ride height. Instead, there are five-way adjustable dampers along with a fixed, lower ride height. The Mk II uses the road car's carbon-ceramic brake rotors, while new 19-inch wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport GT slick racing tires.

The interior is stripped out with a dashboard which is even simpler than that of the road car. It has a rectangular race car steering wheel and it also has a number of new controls. The display mounted on top shows info from the  MoTeC data acquisition system as well as the views from the rear camera. The driver sits in a Sparco racing seat that has a six point harness and the passenger seat is optional.

Ford said that only 45 units of the Ford Mk II would be built at $1.2 million each. Which is around $700,000 more expensive than the regular GT. And it would be directly sold to customers by Multimatic, not from Ford. The Ford Mk II will start production at the regular Ford GT's production plant in Markham, Ontario, before being brought to a specialist facility at Multimatic to be finished.
