US automaker Ford Motors' Australian subsidiary has launched its limited-edition celebration FPV models, the FPV GT F sedan.

FPV GT F is equipped with the supercharged 5L V8 engine that produces an output of 351kW.

The V8 engine features a transient overboost function in the engine management system that is said to enable drivers to access 15% additional power, during the favourable prevailing conditions.

Ford Motors FPV chief program engineer Peter de Leur said the company's goal was to create a vehicle that pays respect to Ford GTs of old yet celebrates all that is good about its performance credentials.

"When we started this program we had an opportunity to look at a performance increase for the engine so we developed a strategy around the calibration that allowed for a performance upgrade without impacting the all-round driveability of the car," de Leur added.

"In doing so, we were also able to make this car special for our FPV GT F customers.

"We were also able to add things like rear camber bolt adjustment on the rear suspension so it can be adjusted for track days, if a customer wishes."

FPV GT F sedan comes with stealth exterior striping package with gloss black accents on the 'raccoon eyes', grilles, appliques, door handles, mirrors and rear diffuser.

The vehicle includes GT orange detailing, instrument dial faces, seat stitching and embroidery, build number as well as manual transmission plaquette and the ICC start-up screen.

Ford plans to build 500 units of the FPV GT F sedans for the Australian market and an additional 50 units for New Zealand.
