Love that Joe is a happy car reviewer and genuinely enjoys getting in new cars and evaluating them.

Once the honeymoon period wears off, these are things you’re going to notice and maybe even regret. My question to you is when would you like to experience regret… before or after you spent $72K

@@poohwecampbell7799 Well, if you fully option out a GT, you can actually exceed the price of a dark horse. I just saw a new GT with a $63k sticker. What you get in a dark horse is more than just extra HP. For starters, the chassis and suspension are more track focused. The cooling system is massively better, the aero is better, In the car just sticks way better in the corners. Couple that with the handling package and it's a really good track car for the money, almost ZL1 1LE good. But that exhaust note on the Dark Horse is incredible, just a little more oomph over the GT. The engine is just built stronger and more mod ready as well, and the biggest difference that makes it worth it is the Tremec 6-speed transmission, similar to the GT350. Absolute manual transmission Bliss. You cannot get this on the GT, which gives you the Getrash. To me personally, the Tremec alone is worth all the extra money. But when it's all said and done, you are only talking about a $5K difference in price from a similarly loaded GT, but with $15k worth of added stuff.

WOW.......what a great car Joe........thanks !

I got mine! Dark Horse 10R80 in blue ember serial #605. It handles way better than the GT and the steering is so much better, the breaking power is serious as well. Planning on modifying CAI, LT Headers, E85 to start. Can't wait to see it come alive with a solid tune, word is 10-12 months to crack the tuning. So sport 4S tire swap and rear seat delete for now.

Damn awesome looking car, but thats the same msrp as a new ZL1, I dont think that car could touch the Zl1 in a race straight line or track, however this car looks better in my opinion. Great review, thank you.

😂 The ZL1 1LE is superior in every single way....except visibility.

That's a valid argument here...I love the ZL1 1LE and it has proven to be the best of the ponies on the track, but this darkhorse has yet to prove it belongs.....I love it and would take it over a GT350....can't believe I'm saying this...😊

@@rickitysplitz7035 how so, the regular 2018 gt track pack doesnt come close to a ZL1 and this new mustang isnt far off from the s550. the older gt350 is probably faster than this car on the track. No chance it comes close to a zl1. both zl1 and the darkhorse 72k msrp ( not including the mark-ups thats going to happen since its new) . Zl1 takes it by a long shot performance wise.

As a Camaro guy, I’d love to get one of these in a few years, as it’s really grown on me. But these prices are getting insane, especially while there’s supposedly going to be a Shelby coming as a 2026 model. (Yes, I know I should get the Camaro but it’ll be harder to find one speced the way I’d like it)

The ZL1 1Le is just perfect though.

I have to say I love the new look of this dark horse mustang. I really enjoyed this video. I give 2 👍👍..❤ I would love to get one but its too expensive for me right now anyway. I have an old 99' 35th anniversary convertible mustang. This dark horse would be a great upgrade but maybe one day. Thank you for this great video and keep them coming. ✌️Have a great day! 😎

oh brother you killing it w the content🎉🎉 love it

Great car. Unfortunate timing. The bottom fell out on muscle cars now with high interest rates and high inflation.
