    Hunting for a Dark Horse….

    OP, coming from a GT350, I'd get the DH with the HP if I were you or, even better, get a 2019/2020 GT350.

    People keep saying the 24 looks like a Camaro....but I mean look at this older Mustang...I think this looks way more like a Camaro

    Holy cow...10 years old, 34k miles (ok that's not much) and still $56k? It's a manual though. And why the heck does it get power Recaros and Mustangs don't...

    Dark Horse Handling Pack

    Of course! Sounds good and I think that is wide as you can go on the stock rims. Man, you really gave her the full spa treatment :thumbsup:

    Dark Horse Handling Pack

    Depends on what you want to do with the car. The stock non-HP wheel/tire combo on the Dark Horse is the same as the one on my Mach 1 (9.5/255 front and 10/275 rear) I believe. For normal and even spirited street driving it is fine but I don't know how the Pirellis are. I remember my 2016 GT...

    Dark Horse Handling Pack

    Here, this is what I meant, they pop up for sale here and there https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/oem-mach-1-hp-wheels-19x11-for-sale.193567/ . I got mine from a member, too. Price was the same. Just need a little luck with location.

    Dark Horse Handling Pack

    $2,800 for that spoiler and gurney flap (plus tax and shipping)?! LOL!

    Dark Horse Handling Pack

    The Pirelli's have a treadwear rating of 100, so I would definitely save them for the track. Michelin Cup 2s have 180 and are less expensive and good chance you can find them on the M6G forum classifieds as take-offs with low mileage and for about half of the MSRP. If OP wants to use the DH HP...

    Dark Horse Handling Pack

    Hi and congrats on the new ride! The HP parts are mentioned here but you probably know that already. https://shop.ford.com/configure/mustang/config/packages/Config%5B%7CFord%7CMustang%7C2024%7C1%7C1.%7C700A.P8R..PK1...COU.67P.MAC.YZTAC.%5D?intcmp=moddetails-bb-fbc I think the biggest challenge...

    Missouri Dark Horse Handling Package Wheels

    Hi, This might be a little premature as deliveries have just started in the past couple weeks. Just wanted to see if someone with a DH with Handling Package was wanting to (or planning to) part with their wheels? Thank you!

    Dark Horse is Delivered

    So had you taken delivery, they suddenly wanted a 10k markup? What a terrible business practice. I think I read this somewhere else here in regards to a different dealership. Regardless, you made the right decision!

    Dark Horse Puddle Lamp

    That is neat. Will never understand Ford's logic (maybe there is none) with regards to specialty vehicles. GT350 (2019/2020) and GT500 got specific puddle lamps, Bullitt did not, but got a special airbag cover (like the Shelbys). Mach 1 got none of the above. 🤔

    How to use Remote Rev in 2024 Mustang S650 & a Key History Lesson

    I guess it's what Ford pictures as the new generation of Mustang enthusiasts: Can't drive stick, needs video game type animated screens and poser-revs in a parking lot. Makes me wonder how the OG 60s muscle car guys see us S550 folks with heated/cooled seats, heated steering wheels, etc...

    MT82-D4 manual transmission in 2024 Mustang - should I be worried?

    Had an MT82 D4 in my 2019 Bullitt and now have the Tremec in my 2021 Mach 1. Tremec is without a doubt superior. However, the MT 82 isn't bad. Sure, it is a little vague (think stirring mashed potatoes) but with the available modifications (trans fluid, MGW shifter, Calimer rebuilt etc.), a...

    NYIAS: Dark Horse Mustang (Blue Ember) & Engine Bay FIRST Look + 2024 Mustang GT Convertible

    I think it is the lighting in this pic. Ford has mastered the art of reusing existing/old designs. These type of material seats have been used in the Shelby GT350 and the California Special trim for a long time I think. They could have done some new type of seat for the S650 IMO.

    Good it worked out for you! I'm only 6'0 and felt like in a submarine :crackup:

    Buyers Remorse on Dark Horse | Car now Scheduled for 22May2023 Built

    Ford can be eternally grateful that GM didn't fix the main Camaro issues of poor visibility, trunk space, and interior. Boggles my mind that GM never addressed that with a redesign as they already have the better platform. It would have provided for a lot more sales I think. Pretty much every...

    Dark Horse Order placed!! Got my VIN today Scheduled for week of May 22

    Very cool to see things moving so quickly for you. In this day and age, I wouldn't be surprised if there were massive delays so get what you CAN get. I'm surprised there are no videos reviews (the usual suspects' YouTube channels) with press cars out yet. It does sound mean

    Buyers Remorse on Dark Horse | Car now Scheduled for 22May2023 Built

    I think it is priced right. It will probably outrun the GT350 and Mach 1 on the track (it kind of has to) and has upgraded tech and a little bit of nicer stuff here and there (flat bottom steering wheel, rear Brembo brakes, for example). Would I personally buy one? Probably not anytime soon...

    Yellow Splash 2024 Mustang GT Caught Testing

    I'll never understand why the Youtubers that yell the entire time and have cuts every 5 seconds appear to have the most/millions of subscribers. Stressful to watch, let alone annoying. Maybe I'm just getting old 🧓
