2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse First Drive Review: New model, familiar formula
from other Mustang models is optional on the Dark Horse, if you're keen to get your slide on.
Spring for the Dark Horse’s $4,995 Handling Package and the steering is a little better, mostly thanks to the wider contact patches of the 10.5-inch front and 11.0-inch rear Pirelli Trofeo R tires. This package also adds stiffer springs and larger sway bars, along with a unique rear spoiler that has an integrated Gurney flap. It’s a worthwhile addition if you plan on tracking the Dark Horse. Thoseare still in the cards, by the way, but aren’t available just yet.
The optional Recaro seats are a worthwhile upgrade, with all-day comfort and generous bolstering, but they don’t up the interior’s luxe factor at all. They also don’t adjust as much and make it harder to access the back seats, not that you’ll be using those for passengers on the regular. At least, I hope not.
Styling is subjective, so I’ll let you decide how you feel about the Dark Horse’s overall design. Me? I’m torn. I think the seventh-generation Mustang as a whole is a step in the wrong direction, especially the crunched-in taillights and cheap-looking spoiler. The black panels under the headlights are a poor styling choice, even if they help the light housings flow into the grille.
