I thought I'd start the Texas thread. I'm from Amarillo TX, I have owned 3 Mustangs, and many more Fords. I have loved the S550 since they came out, wanted to buy one for a long time, but just now found myself in a position to do that, so I ordered a S650 Dark Horse! Hoping to drive it on some...

It seems like media outlets got a look at the S650 infotainment and digital gauge cluster. The screens look really responsive. https://www.motortrend.com/news/2024-ford-mustang-digital-gauge-cluster-graphics/amp/...

Possibly a Dark Horse variant? https://www.hotcars.com/leaked-image-shows-shelby-testing-new-2024-mustang-variant/ https://www.motortrend.com/news/2024-2025-ford-mustang-shelby-spied-testing/amp/

Saw this tease on Instagram. Ford replied 'See you tomorrow' but deleted it. What is it? Doesn't look like F1 wing(rumored partnership with Red Bull announcement tomorrow), and maybe not the GT4 wing? Kind of has the look on the sides of the Dark Horse HP wing with the gurney flap removed.. but...

https://www.motor1.com/news/631105/ford-ceo-race-mustang-gt4/ It looks like he is racing with the Multimatic team with the new GT3 car! Edit: I read the article wrong, it's the S550 GT4 still.

I have been thinking about how common Dark Horses will be. I started thinking about how I don't see any Mach 1s. I live in a town of 200k, and I have seen 3 GT500s in town, 5 or more GT350s in town, but no (S550) Mach 1s. In fact, I have only seen 1 M1, FJG in another city, none at my local car...

I am curious to see if the Dark Horse HP can beat the Mach 1 HP track times, such as in the Lightning lap. Sure it gained 20 horsepower, but likely weighs more due to new tech and steel fenders. The biggest difference is the Trofeo tires are typically less aggressive than the Cup 2 tires. What...

Jim Farley Drive Podcast Listened to this earlier. He talks a little about custom tuning. Also about nameplates. He mentions having more in pipeline, but he seemed to indicate not using Mach 1. Pretty neat.

I know the Mach 1 (and GT500) owners got a Track Attack with purchase of the car. Does this continue with the Dark Horse? I hope so, looking forward to going.

Are the connecting rods plus tuning the only differences? I saw an article that stated as much. If so, I wonder if the redline is raised? Ford Muscle DH Coyote Article

I know there is a sticky x-plan thread, but I do not see a full answer to some questions I had. Can you use an X-plan while pre-ordering a new car before release, such as when order banks first open?

We may not get the exact horspower numbers on the 14th, but if we do, what do you expect? My guess is 480+ for the regular GT, 487 if I am being exact.

Power to weight ratio is important for performance and fuel mileage. With the decision to stay on the old platform, is weight loss possible? I personally believe to be a contender, the Mustang GT needs to lose a few pounds in V8 RWD form, even if it was just 100-200 pounds in comparison to a...
