Since its birth in 2009, RTR has rapidly become one of the most popular automotive brand names worldwide with its wild project builds and aftermarket appearance, and performance packages for the Ford Mustang. With Ford’s recent debut of the all-new global 2015 Mustang, RTR has undoubtedly raised the bar in the aftermarket world with their development of the 2015 Mustang RTR.
The company’s most recent creation is the insane, 1,400-HP Mustang Mach-E GT Drifter – a one-off prototype capable of double duty hitting the track and drag strip to dropping jaws at a gymkhana course.
Spec 1 and Spec 2 Packages Deliver Serious Upgrades

- Horsepower: Over 700 HP (with optional supercharger)
