Ford is introducing the Ford GT Alan Mann Heritage Edition to pay tribute to the Alan Mann Racing’s 1966 lightweight experimental prototypes. In 1965-66, Alan Mann Racing used lighter materials to create AM GT-1, along with a second car that was based on the GT MK 1. Although none of the prototypes won a major race, the use of lightweight materials helped Ford to win Le Mans with the GT Mk II in 1966. This review will give you the full specifications and price of the 2022 Ford GT Alan Mann Heritage Edition in Nigeria.

The design
The Heritage Edition is debuting with a unique Alan Mann Red exterior paint with gold graphics, dual over-the-roof racing stripe, Frozen white signature accent stripes, and roundels with No. 16 on the doors, hood, and underside of the rear wing.
Ford exposed glass carbon fiber components to make it look like the 1966 model. The racing beast features 20-inch wheels, front splitters, side sills, mirrors, engine louvers, and rear diffusers. Brembo brake calipers lacquered in black with red graphics, plus black lug nuts further modernize the aesthetic.
Carbon fiber carries into the cabin, appearing on door sills, consoles, and registers. The seats are wrapped with Ebony-Alcantara carbon fiber which features gold and red accent stitching, while embossed seating surfaces and head restraints carry the GT logo. The instrument panel is wrapped in Ebony leather and Alcantara, while the pillars and headliner are wrapped in Ebony Alcantara.
Gold appliqués on the instrument panel, door register bezels, and seat X-brace are paired with the matte carbon fiber registers, door sills, lower A-pillars, and console. The steering wheel is finished in Ebony Alcantara with black stitching, while dual-clutch paddle shifters are finished in exterior-matching Alan Mann red.
