In excess of 700 horsepower from 5.0 liters of displacement isn’t news to Mustang enthusiasts in the United States. But over in Germany, a few companies offer tuning kits for the Mustang’s Coyote engine. Wolf Racing is one of them, claiming 735 PS and no fewer than 880 Nm (649 pound-feet) of torque.
That kind of suck-squeeze-bang-blow doesn’t come cheap, not when the supercharger comes from Edelbrock and the car celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Neuenstein-based company. “One of 7” is how Wolf Racing calls this Mustang GT Fastback, and the starting price of 94,440 euros is double the sticker of the bog-standard model.
As the name implies, only seven examples of the breed will be manufactured with either a six-speed manual or the 10R80 automatic transmission that Ford also uses in performance models such as the Ranger Raptor. Tipping the scales at 1,800 kilograms, the “One of 7” is capable of shooting to 100 km/h in under four seconds thanks to an upgraded chassis.
Coil-over suspension and a limited-slip differential open the list, and the ride height is 30 millimeters lower than before to lower the center of gravity. The more purposeful stance is joined by aftermarket wheel with five inclined spokes each, sized 9.0 by 10.5 by 21 inches front and rear and wrapped in 255/30Z and 305/25 tires.
The Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber is a performance-oriented tire that works perfectly in warm weather and on dry surfaces, and even though these tires don’t come cheap, they’re a must in a sports car with so much torque channeled to the rear wheels. Visual cues further include a carbon-fiber spoiler at the rear and custom decals. Wolf Racing didn’t forget about the interior either, now featuring a dashboard plaque, embroidered floor mats and headrests, as well as color-coded piping for the sports seats.
Wolf Racing started out in a barn back in 1979, preparing race engines and racing cars. The company was previously active in motorsport as a semi-works team in championships such as the DTM, DTC, STW, and ADAC GT. To date, Wolf Racing scored more than 30 victories and 100 podium finishes.
