Where we come from, a Dark Horse is a very rare car, and I’m told everyone knows of the DH from Social Media. Our first several months with the first DH in Western Canada, we were constantly approached and badgered at every available opportunity to discuss the car. Not a fan. So we changed the badges to GT….. & now people just say “nice car” & walk on by. Very pleased with our decision. Has anyone else debadged their DH yet?

I can't even fathom me changing the badging on my $70K automobile because some strangers ask/asked me about the car. But ... whateves.

P.S. - Don't open the doors when they are around. Sill plates, projection lights, etc. :)

I'm sure the down-badged-good-boys would appreciate this but I think it is silly. Give it anther year when some other vehicle is the new hot car to have and only the enthusiasts will appreciate your DH. I would have never touched those badges.

Wow, I heard of up badging, always hated that! This the first I have heard of someone going in the opposite direction. 🤷‍♂️
I'm a huge fan of no badges what so ever. So I was pissed when I saw the 5.0 and GT had holes behind them. Briefly thought about replacing them with dark horse badges, but immediately thought of what you said, badging up. No way
