Curator’s note

The track-focused seventh-generation Mustang, with a manual gearbox.

The Dark Horse sits at the top of the seventh-generation Mustang line-up. Its 5.0-litre Coyote V8 uses forged connecting rods from the Shelby GT500, and it was developed for road courses as much as straight lines.

The story

Ford Mustang Dark Horse

The Dark Horse was the first new Mustang performance name in many years, slotting between the outgoing Mach 1 and the retired Shelby GT350. A 10-speed automatic is also offered.

Extra coolers for the gearbox and rear axle and six-piston Brembo front brakes were added so the car could run hard on track for long sessions.
