Ford considers street-legal Mustang GT3 variant after successful track testing.

Ford CEO Jim Farley has teased the idea of a street-legal version of the Mustang GT3 race car, which is being developed to compete in various racing series around the world. It's unclear how much of the GT3 race car could be translated over to a street-legal variant, but if made, Ford could target the likes of the Porsche 911 GT3 or even the Porsche 911 GT3 RS with its own street-legal race car. The Mustang GT3 will be powered by a modified version of the 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 being developed in-house by Ford Performance, and will feature a rear-mounted transaxle gearbox and carbon fiber body panels.
