Latest 2024 Mustang Order Guide and Price List (w/ MSRP & Invoice)!

[Bikeman315]

Yeah, I think I'm going to stick with getting a fully loaded GT Premium.

Seemingly, the only real difference between it and the DH, besides the prestige factor, is that you'll get somewhat less horse power (which, if you're mostly doing city driving or commuting daily, is not a big deal IMO) and no Carbon Fiber wheels.

Not true. We went over this when the Mach 1 was first introduced. There are major differences between the two cars. Keep reading.

I think he wanted the black accents and black roof, as did i. Its interesting one of the earlier pictures showed a dark horse with both a black roof and rdled calipers, both of which dont appear to be available.

I get it but you can do both of those things for a lot less than the price of a Night Pony.

I def do NOT want the Black Roof

 

[Bikeman315]

Which would also make sense. The additional horsepower is probably just enough to trip the government's alarm for emissions.

Doubtful. The new intake will keep them just out of range of the GG tax.

Ah well, most of the rest of it is there. The mirrors have dark caps, the wing is black if you do handling package. Still not sure if there are 2 colors of emblems as we have seen, a silver and a black.

If you are just talking about the red calipers, i have no idea why they wouldnt be available for the DH.

I'm just going based on the options sheet we have. If I'm missing something, by all means please tell me.

And yes, I know the DH will hold up better in value because of its limited allocations, has somewhat prettier color(s) and it will be a better car for the race track because of the 500hp vs. 480hp.

But functionally, if someone's only using it as a regular city driver or daily commuter, I don't see what would tip the scales in the DH's favor when you're going to be paying at least several grand more for it.

 

[Bikeman315]

Doubt it. My 21 had gas guzzler tax at 480HP. I'd assume that tax will be present on the new GTs too.

No, it wouldn't. They both get 480 but in different ways. That's why the new intake.

 

[dfwford]

No, it wouldn't. They both get 480 but in different ways. That's why the new intake.

That's explains the GT Premium's exclusion.

My bad, just saw that you recently joined. Sorry.

And you are correct. If the car is only going to be street driven, most of the additional performance features would be moot. You would be well served with either a regular GT or one with the Performance Package.

Thanks! And no problem.

I was open to ordering a DH had it offered a lot more bells & whistles beyond better track performance (bearing in mind the GT Premium is still better than 95-98% of other cars peformance-wise), but that doesn't seem to be the case unfortunately.

Not to mention, you can get A/Z pricing with the GT Premium and there will be a greater allocation of them (reducing the chance of long delays).

I feel the same way. I don't *need* the Dark Horse, and I won't be putting it on the track. I am content with a fully loaded GT.

I do have a question though for those who have ordered the Performance Package on GTs. Is there away that get spoilers that arent body color? (preferably black).

Just in case anyone was wondering. Ford does not consider the DH a new model......

In the price list Dark Horse is called Mach 1 in 3 different places

 

[Blueberrystang2000]

Also if you want to use it as a track toy without having to add coolers on your own. And potentially a track attack day at Charlotte. These are the two factors that have me picking the DH over the Gt. If I wasnt going to use it on the track, i would go GT.

My dealer is being tight lipped about these guides and pricing at the moment. @Blueberrystang2000 is this something that isnt supposed to be discussed with customers yet?

I’m not sure why they would be like that, it’s the perfect time to reach out to customers to give them an idea of options build the excitement just a few more weeks

Lane-Keeping System with Lane-Keeping Assist and Lane Departure Warning includes Driver Alert System, Road Departure Warning and Blind Spot Assist – when equipped with 6-speed Manual Transmission (44X) Note: Lane Centering Assist is also included with Lane-Keeping System when equipped with 10-speed SelectShift® Automatic Transmission (44U)

Yeah, that's what I'm referring to. LKA and LCA are not even remotely similar in how they feel behind the wheel. LKA is super limited, maybe good for someone that's driving on a relatively straight road and needs to bend over to reach something in their car for a couple of seconds without worrying about careening off road, or if you want to space out while driving on an arrow straight road. I've tried at least 5-6 LKA systems from different brands and they're all typically more of a hassle than a boon. Constantly riding over the cats eyes on roads or hugging uncomfortably close to one side. I feel like I'd trade paint with the car in the adjacent lane sometimes. And then it fights you if you try to center your vehicle. So counterintuitive.

LCA is basically what most cars refer to as "autopilot" in that it positions your car as you'd actually want it to without rebounding back and forth like a bowling ball bouncing off of bumpers.

Yes, I loved my seats in my CS

Same here. They are exactly the same shape and comfort as the regular GT seats but with nice alcantara instead of the poor quality leather.
