Ford constructed this interesting car with the help of the well-known McLaren racing team at their American operation office in Michigan. The whole idea behind the project was to take a 2.3-liter turbo engine from a regular Mustang and transform it into a street racing beast.

And they did just that by adding a race-tuned suspension, lightweight body, and a host of other modifications. But best of all, McLaren and Ford added a tuned turbo engine that delivered 190 HP. That was a big number for the day, especially coming from 2.3-liters. With all that, they totally changed the looks of the Fox Mustang.
