  • The Mustang name alone is about as nostalgic as it gets, but it seems like whenever Ford ups Mustang’s performance ante, they double down with throwback names like “Boss” and “Mach 1.” But now they’ve actually come up with something all-new for the seventh-gen pony car. It’s the Mustang Dark Horse… and around the race track, it’s anything but stealthy! #Ford #Mustang #FordMustang #DarkHorse #MustangDarkHorse

    Back in '89, I saw the then new Fox coupes go for $8,999 right off the dealer showroom... MAN, our grand kids won't be able to afford a vehicle, ice, hybrid or electric. 😔 Mornin every one.😁🍻

      I bought a new GT back then and the sticker was just under $17K with A/C, power accessories, manual and a sunroof; an automatic would have been more $. I do remember the 1982-1984 GT being just under $10K without A/C and power accessories.

      I ordered a new loaded to the gills 5.7 IROC back in 1987 @ $19993.00
      That's the equivalent of $52,000+ in 2024.
      The cost isn't as bad as folks think. Things have came along way mechanically which has added alot more to vehicle cost, than just the cost of living adjustment.

    The screens were a research topic on how to make more younger audience buy the car. But at 70k no one younger is buying this. That said it's a good evolution of the s550 chassis and I'm happy we still get a manual v8. Hey Ford? Where's the manual ecoboost hipo?? 😅 I never got my order

    • @E52O4
      @E52O4 4 місяці тому

      They should have the option to order a MT82 transmission if you want one for the ecoboost. Why? Because driving manual transmission Mustangs should not be limited to the V8 buyers. At least offer the option. It isn’t like the assembly line can’t do it.

    The issue I have with this car, as someone who has owned 4 Mustangs is my GT500 cost HALF as much as this car when it was new. I'm factoring in the $15-20K markup that all of these have.That's insane. You're better off buying a used GT350, if you want manual, which ya should, or a GT500. Honestly, the only S650 that seems appealing to me is a base model, no option GT. That's still $45,000. Then again, these "young people" cars have been priced out of young people for over 20 years.

    This price for a Mustang that doesn't have a Shelby name and number right next to it is ludicrous. You can get a used 911, Z06, Supra, ZL1, and Hellcat, and the list goes on. It's not only about speed and number, but reliability, value, and collectibility.

      We don't run them when we do track testing at Roebling. We answered this recently on the last episode of our podcast but the short of it is that the heavy braking and cornering that we do on the track allows us to get the impressions we need. And with time constraints due to TV, they would likely get cut anyways due to redundancy. The tests are certainly more important when we are not track testing cars. Hope that explains it!

    You know... back in 2005, Ford introduced a Mustang that - after decades of "evolution" - looked more like a Mustang than it had in many years. They should do that again.

    500hp to run a high 12's is a little disappointing, but I guess you can only do so much with a heavier curb weight.

    More respect for this model over the Shelby because it did not have to be shipped off to Vegas for upgrades.

    how is the 0-60 for the dark horse considerably worse than the 0-60 for a z06 even though the dark horse has more power? is it the grip on the road?

      To be fair, all special edition 5.0 Mustangs are “glorified” GTs. That doesn’t mean they’re bad by any means.

      I have had Flowmaster Outlaw, Borla S type, Solo street race, AWE Touring and finally my Corsa extreme on my 5.0 mustang and even though I really liked the flowmaster Outlaws I just couldn't get used to the drone so that's why I settled on Corsa with there No drone technology! ;)

      Well that was pretty much a base mustang ( not a trim like dark horse or Mach One) also that was 10yrs ago…….. it’s still hard for me personally to process that 2014 was 10 freaking year ago!!! That’s wild! Time flys

      35k in 2014 is 45k in todays money accounting for inflation. Which is what a base GT goes for nowadays.

    Grab one and go pay the 8-10k to supercharge it. You’re killing damn near everything then with about 750hp and low weight with still insane handling once you hook up.

    12:17 quarter mile? I would expected at least 11:19 for the money. I bought my 87 Foxbody at 225 HP. With 100 hp. kit of nitrous I ran exactly 12:17 back in 1989. I love Mustangs. but it just seems silly to me, for the money. I had a total of 12,000 bucks in my car.

    I wouldn't mind having the drivetrain swapped into a car from the 60's. But I can definitely do without all the unnecessary technology like the sensors everywhere and giant screens
