Although I have not seen this confirmed, it would seem reasonable that the DH springs and sway bars are the same as the Mach 1. Here is a chart I put together with spring rates and sway bar sizes for various models. I currently am running the stock Mach 1 HP springs with the Steeda adjustable...

Non-HP front tires are 255/40-19, diameter is 27.03", radius 13.52". HP front 305/30-19, diameter 26.20", radius 13.10". So the HP front has 0.40" less ground clearance because of the tires but has a 0.40" larger wheel gap to the fender, some of which is masked by the fender lips. Non-HP rear...

Pics please?

100%. 2LT with magneride and handling package is $86K-ish before haggling, $83K when you’re done. Much as I hate automatics, that would be a serious consideration if I was looking at a $75K DH.

I’m not sure if “poorly received” is the best way to describe it… it just seems like people expect something more. Hard to argue that it’s not basically the same as the Mach 1’s performance-wise. The styling has gotten mixed reactions too. Couple that with the price and those are two hurdles...

Yep I’ve owned the Mach and a 2018 GT and spent a lot of time in 350’s so I feel somewhat comfortable offering opinions on them. But a lot of folks who comment on the topic may not have that kind of experience to draw on and can only go by what they read or watch.

This thread is bringing me back to yesteryear... 2021 when the same argument started between the GT350 and Mach 1. It always ends the same way. 350 owners talk about the unique engine and Shelby brand. M1/DH owners talk about the unreliable 350 engine and the performance comparable to the...

First BE one I saw in the sun immediately reminded me of the 1996 Cobra Mystic paint, a combo of purple, green and brown.

You are trading in your GT350 for this?

Time of year... nobody wants to spend all that money on a car they can't drive for another 4 months.

A month ago today I went to look at a Dark Horse and posted about the experience. Blue Ember handling package, automatic. Just wanted to test drive and had no intention of buying. Had to let them "run the numbers" before they'd let me drive it but the numbers were so high I walked out. Today...

Ah OK got it. Thought you were talking about @Dave2013M3 .

Nope the OP. We've never met but have read lots of his posts on both 6G and 7G. Had lots of BMW's, bought a 2020 GT and modded it but still loves BMW's, test drove a bad-apple 24 GT and expressed his disappointment. Not sure how that makes him a Ford hater, other than hating the fact that...
