Probably true. If there was a Dark Horse convertible I would have ordered that instead of a PP GT...but only because it existed, I'll never drive at the limits of this car. It's just my summer fun car. If I decide to go racing or even autocross I'll build an old E46 BMW or something.
If...
I'm not sure when that article was originally written but it was supposedly updated recently. Isn't the statement about Recaro seats being standard in a Dark Horse just plain wrong?
Ford did a decent job with the 2024, but I think we're going to find in 2026 that the Dark Horse isn't the king...
I think you need to start by understanding what the vent actually does. Then take a close look at the 75 other places that water and dirt get in.
A modern vehicle's engine bay is not a delicate flower. Spray it with some all purpose cleaner and power wash it in the spring.
It's the...
If the cloth seat doesn't bother you, the only other thing that would make me pause is the ventilated seats. I use them on my truck and the wife's car all summer. I used the compare vehicles feature on the Ford site and was surprised how little difference there was between premium and...
Thanks, I missed that, and honestly the name wouldn't have rung a bell with me...but I do now know that Brittany Sweeney is the local PBS news health and wellness lifestyle reporter somewhere in the Allentown, Pennsylvania area.
Yankees have special color catcher's mitts?? Who knew?
It is nice. The tan doesn't work for me with the silver tone on the wheel and other places but maybe it's just the lighting.
I know I could google it...but am I the only one who has no idea who Brittany is?
If you think of the DH as an option package and not a completely different model, it will likely pay back about as well as the PP, NP, Magneride or Active Exhaust options on a GT...which is to say not spectacularly. Let's say a GT is $54k new and a Dark Horse is 12k more at $66k. At some point...
I assume the next chapter in this ongoing drama will be the MY25 changeover.
- will prices change
- will colors chang
- will those orders not build roll over or require reorder
Stay tuned...
I only ordered in late Feb and it wasn't a DH so I'm OK with whatever happens as long as they hit my...
Lincoln is at least trying to integrate a little more elegantly. Unfortunately, primarily because they need to if they want to compete in the China market.
I think after this many years Ford has both pretty much figured out and what gets scheduled when is more a function of parts availability. We are still in somewhat of a post-covid hangover in the auto industry and shortages or delays could be anything from a certain paint color to a Retainer...
In 2026 there will a Cobra, GT350, GT500, Mach 1, or Shelby version that will be much more of a measurable step up from the GT than the Dark Horse. That is certainly not going to help Dark Horse values.
The one in that thread is a bit more squared off and a better look for the 650 to my eye. The link to the vendor is still live but that's as far as I chased it.
