For those of you who love the Ford GT you can smile a bit bigger today! Ford Motor Car Company plans to build the carbon fiber supercar for four production years, up from the previously announced 2-year-run.  The move comes on the heels of letters sent to potential customers notifying them of their application status. 6,500 people applied for the chance to own one of the 500 Ford GTs – Ford will only produce 250 of them a year. The third year of production will support those who were wait-listed. Previously deferred applicants and those who missed the initial application window will be served by production year four. The next application window opens in early 2018. Those who already applied will only need to update their request.

“While we can’t build enough Ford GTs for everyone who has applied, we are going to produce additional vehicles in an effort to satisfy more of our most loyal Ford ambassadors,” says Dave Pericak, global director, Ford Performance. “We want to keep Ford GT exclusive, but at the same time we know how vital this customer is to our brand.”

Year three of production will support applicants who were placed on the wait list; previously deferred applicants and those who missed the initial application window will be served by production year four. The application process for fourth-year production will reopen in early 2018. Those who already applied to own the car will only need to update their request.
