Ford's high performance tuning division (Tickford) developed the ED model XR8 Sprint. It was to deliver brilliant performance (thanks to minimal weight and about the same power as the GT), subtly distinguishable lines and - above all - affordability.
The XR8 Sprint's Windsor engine is almost identical to that found in the Anniversary GT - which is officially listed at 200kW. Both are based on the US Cobra-spec engine. However, the Sprint's quoted power figures varied slightly from 192kW to 195kW (at 5000 rpm), and torque was 405Nm at 4000. Note that the Sprint was reported to have a superior mid-range torque spread to the GT.
5L, 8 cylinder.
Automatic.
