Compare the2026 Ford Mustang GTD VS 2027 Ferrari Amalfi

The Ford Mustang GTD has standard driver and front passenger side knee airbags mounted low on the dashboard. These airbags help prevent the driver and front passenger from sliding under their seatbelts or the main frontal airbags; this keeps them better positioned during a collision for maximum protection. Knee airbags also help keep the legs from striking the dashboard, preventing knee and leg injuries in the case of a serious frontal collision. The Amalfi doesn’t offer knee airbags.

The Mustang GTD has standard head airbag curtains, which act as a forgiving barrier between the driver and outboard passenger's upper bodies and the window and pillars. Combined with high-strength steel door beams and lower side airbags this system increases head protection in broadside collisions. The Amalfi doesn't offer side airbag protection for the head.

The Mustang GTD has standard Pre-Collision Assist, which use forward mounted sensors to warn the driver of a possible collision ahead. If the driver doesn’t react and the system determines a collision is imminent, it automatically applies the brakes at full-force in order to reduce the force of the crash or avoid it altogether. The Amalfi doesn't offer collision warning or crash mitigation brakes.

The Mustang GTD has standard Post Collision Braking, which automatically apply the brakes in the event of a crash to help prevent secondary collisions and prevent further injuries. The Amalfi doesn’t offer a post collision braking system: in the event of a collision that triggers the airbags, more collisions are possible without the protection of airbags that may have already deployed.

The Mustang GTD’s driver alert monitor detects an inattentive driver then sounds a warning and suggests a break. According to the NHTSA, drivers who fall asleep cause about 100,000 crashes and 1500 deaths a year. The Amalfi doesn’t offer a driver alert monitor.

Both the Mustang GTD and the Amalfi have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, daytime running lights, lane departure warning systems and rearview cameras.

The Ford Mustang GTD weighs 643 to 1102 pounds more than the Ferrari Amalfi. The NHTSA advises that heavier cars are much safer in collisions than their significantly lighter counterparts.

Ford’s powertrain warranty covers the Mustang GTD 2 years longer than Ferrari covers the Amalfi. Any repair needed on the engine, transmission, axles, joints or driveshafts is fully covered for 5 years or 60,000 miles. Coverage on the Amalfi ends after only 3 years.

The Mustang GTD’s corrosion warranty is 2 years longer than the Amalfi’s (5 vs. 3 years).

There are almost 67 times as many Ford dealers as there are Ferrari dealers, which makes it much easier should you ever need service under the Mustang GTD’s warranty.

The Mustang GTD’s 5.2 supercharged V8 produces 184 more horsepower (815 vs. 631) and 103 lbs.-ft. more torque (664 vs. 561) than the Amalfi’s 3.9 turbo V8.

The Mustang GTD has a standard cap-less fueling system. The fuel filler is automatically opened when the fuel nozzle is inserted and automatically closed when it’s removed. This eliminates the need to unscrew and replace the cap and it reduces fuel evaporation, which causes pollution. The Amalfi doesn’t offer a cap-less fueling system.

For better stopping power the Mustang GTD’s brake rotors are larger than those on the Amalfi:

	Mustang GTD	Amalfi
Front Rotors	16.5 inches	15.4 inches
Rear Rotors	14.6 inches	14.2 inches

For better traction, the Mustang GTD has larger tires than the Amalfi (F:325/30R20 & R:345/30R20 vs. F:245/35R20 & R:285/35R20).

The Mustang GTD’s tires provide better handling because they have a lower 30 series profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Amalfi’s standard 35 series tires.

The Mustang GTD has a standard automatic front and rear load leveling suspension to keep ride height level with a heavy load or when towing. The Amalfi doesn’t offer a load leveling suspension.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the Mustang GTD’s wheelbase is 2 inches longer than on the Amalfi (107.1 inches vs. 105.1 inches).

For better handling and stability, the track (width between the wheels) on the Mustang GTD is 2.9 inches wider in the front and 2.2 inches wider in the rear than on the Amalfi.

The Mustang GTD has a much larger trunk than the Amalfi Coupe with its rear seat up (13 vs. 9.6 cubic feet).

The Mustang GTD has a standard remote vehicle starting system, so the vehicle can be started from inside the driver's house. This allows the driver to comfortably warm up the engine before going out to the vehicle. The climate system will also automatically heat or cool the interior. The Amalfi doesn’t offer a remote starting system.

The Mustang GTD’s standard power window controls are mounted on the armrest for easy access. The Amalfi’s available power window controls are spread out on the center console where they can’t be seen without the driver completely removing his eyes from the road.

To shield the driver and front passenger’s vision over a larger portion of the windshield and side windows, the Mustang GTD has standard extendable sun visors. The Amalfi doesn’t offer extendable visors.

The Mustang GTD’s power mirror controls are mounted on the armrest for easy access. The Amalfi’s power mirror controls are on the dash where they are possibly hidden by the steering wheel and are awkward to manipulate.

Compared to the Ferrari Amalfi, the Ford Mustang GTD eliminates the need for separate garage door openers and associated risks of losing, breaking, or having dead batteries with its standard integrated Homelink® universal remote controlled from the driver’s visor.
