FORD MUSTANG DARK HORSE V8 EU // REVIEW on AUTOBAHN

[@meerexe253]

11:30 can we just talk about how smoothly bro just did a 360 😭

[@ceboz]

I was looking for this comment 🫡

[@joe125ful]

But no tire smoke?:(

[@Bobbie_1999]

With a proper handbrake and a car that is setup well, not too hard

[@fireoil]

I thought km/h 😂

[@Freimopp777]

@@joe125fulThere was tire smoke. He probably didn't shred the tires because it is not his car.

[@flavioc5389]

Sincerely I love this super long 6th, imagining cruising at 250 km/h .

[@carlosmiguel4756]

Ahhhh a V8 with a proper manual? Me loves this!!!!! Congrats to the Americans that still understand the enthusiastic and purists! Sad the European makers only give us automatic gearboxes in big engines today...

[@joe125ful]

Yeah that 6 th gear:):)

Значит надо рекламировать и пропагандировать механику и большеобьёмные моторы!

[@adamgt4037]

To be fair to Porsche (even though I don't like them) they still have a Manual performance car, although it's under 8 cylinders

[@TheSkyline35]

​@@adamgt4037 they are also a lot more expensive. And Cayman is going full EV...

[@madhunter6420]

europe went gay

[@xIcarus227]

17:36 that 6th gear is absolutely hilarious 😂 But if it helps them get the fuel economy needed to pass the regulations so they can continue offering a manual I'm all for it.

[@xarnoldx10]

Could definitely change the ratio and fix that issue lol

[@PULSEVADER]

Seen a red one on the street yesterday and boy oh boy does this car stand out, actually made me sit up, wind my window down to listen and take notice "is that the new stang?, wait is that the DARK HORSE!?". The fact that it comes with 6MT, hand brake, forged bottom end and Ford has a 800hp+ bolt on whipple kit for 10k or Evolution 1,000hp+ stage 2 upgrade is petrol head heaven.

[@richyclubsport5155]

I'm in England, just bought one, manual, although a GT with optional Recaros, just 4600 miles, through a dealer friend, on a online auction, it was a repossession. fantastic car, sounds amazing, actually incredibly economical on a run. Would like to do a few subtle mods, H Pipe but will clarify with Ford before doing anything because of the extended warranty it came with.

[@meetverma4812]

How much did u get it for ?

[@zacharyrice6884]

If I were in the EU, I’d instantly remove those restrictive mods. Good though you can still get a V8 across the pond.

[@CjPhoneHome]

if you remove those, ur car won't be street legal anymore

[@fatihomur5731]

Can't drive it on the road then

[@derbigpr500]

If you were in the EU you wouldn't even consider buying this car for how overpriced it is compared to the US price. Literally 3x more expensive.

Max brilliant video. Just shows you don’t need a tonne of power to have a blast. I’m no mustang fan at all but I totally get this car, it’s a drivers car and offers so much more for us real petrol heads❤. Thanks Ford

[@hardstyle4life394]

I am a proud owner of 2007 Mustang GT Manuel , I love it with all my Heart, and huge respect to Ford to keep on making Manuel V8 !! I always say there is so much more to a car than just speed and how fast it can go ,and Mustangs have always been such a nice Car to daily drive ,I could never imagine my self or any other people that own V8 Mustangs to drive boring EV or other soulless Cars , mine is sadly 17 years old and closing to 120 000km I wish I could make it last forever Edit : English is my 3rd language 😅 but good jokes 😉

[@Thisismyhandle218]

That paint / colour is absolute stunning, nice one Ford 👏

[@R19Robbin]

Manual V8 will always be fun 🔥🔥

[@smoove1000]

They changed the gears. 👍🏻 The old one hit 260 in fourth gear and you had to use first gear in roundabouts. 🙈

[@piericsamaire7513]

Manual gearbox with v8, Nice ❤️

[@biggiesmalls9209]

If got the normal one, fresh from Detroit and booooy… even the GT brings me a huge smile on my face! 😊 My last car was a Seat Leon Cupra 290 and now the Mustang GT 2024… Damn I love it with all my heart 🎉

[@matth4638]

I have a 2019 GT 6 speed. Every drive is special! Although mines a little louder than this one.

[@user-sg6xv2kb8s]

I was a bit confused about the new Capri but this is fantastic! Anyone missing the E90 M3 will be happy to see this. Traditionally, front engined V8s were american. Cool car.

[@aidansky55]

I honestly shocked that the EU spec didn’t ruin anything else other than the slight decrease in power, well done Ford.

[@blackwidow7804]

That 6th gear is longer than Chinese wall.

[@fireoil]

I did went 240 km/h max out gauge with 2014 BMW R1200R in 2018 in autobahn wich was 223km/h gps. One of the fastest air/oil cooled motorcycle speed for a production motorcycle ! 1158cc boxer flat twin engine 106HP

I just picked up my Dark Horse in Grabber Blue with the Handling Pack and 6-speed manual. I also have a 2023 Mach1 with 6M. Both are so unique in their own way but, I still prefer the interior of the Mach1 … screens in the DH are growing on me … I run SVT Cobra on my gauge cluster.

You must be around 18 years old …

[@hunterxsimple3821]

If we're counting the older ones too, I prefer the '13 and '14 Mustang. The C6 from the Vettes. I would really love to own a V8 someday before I can't anymore... I'm 18 now, sooo the time may not be on my side. Would be ironic if I work as an electrical engineer with electric car chargers and drove a V8 (wouldn't it?)

[@joe125ful]

Not even close compared by Shelby versions....

Doesn’t matter which mustang. I like all generations of them. real talk mustang is are real culture

Now i understand that Porsche had to introduce a 7 Speed manual! They definatly had the same problem, so they added and additional gear

[@Zeeraha]

Try reaching a top speed in 5th gear, instead of 6th, which is for cruising only.

[@henrivm3559]

he did

[@Jeroen74]

That's superlong sixth gear is to circumvent the gazz guzzler tax right? IIRC the regulation has a test in the highest gear. So I assume it still a thing.

[@stonewall3041]

Fun Fact: The U.S. version has no where near 500HP, not even at the crank.

It’s called an Overdrive. It’s great for the autobahn.

On Dark Horse 1-5 are close ratio so 6 seems extra long. On GT 1-6 are more evenly spread out.

Honestly the interior looks like a van. That massive screen seems just glued, if at least they had done any kind of dash integration...

Considering how popular the Mustang has always been I wouldn't be surprised if companies start making dash kits, either a nice cowling for the screens, or retrofit replacement dashes.

I love the 7th gen Mustang, but the EU spec has been really toned down. We can only choose black interior, Dark Horse is not available with Handling package and most have that small wing that Ford never said nothing about, GT California Special only in convertible, and here in Spain, we can't get the Dark Horse in Blue Ember. And let's not forget how detuned it is (around 50 hp less) because EU regulations and that the ECUs are locked, so we can take the performance back.

[@UpperEchelon8]

Good to know that Ford is still making manual sports cars unlike other brands that are more focused on making electric shavers with shi range. :)
