would love to hear more on why you feel so strongly about the Mach 1? I have rotated out of sports cars for boats/pwc/bronco’s. I need to add a fun car back to the line up and have been considering a Mach or 350.

Significantly more reliable. More fun factor on the street. You'd never notice the difference on the track.

I have a line on a super nice Mach 1.

The 350 has a special motor,the mach 1 does not.When they tested the mach 1 on a track it put up a better time than the 2016 GT 350.The damping was changed on the later years GT 350,so that tells me the 350 R is still faster around the track than the mach 1.

A gt350 is much cooler than a dark horse IMO. Its not even close.
I was thinking a Dark Horse with the GT350. I am not selling the only flat-plan-crank engine ever made by Ford.

I know the Dark Horse will be placed by another name by Ford one day soon. It may be called a GT350, a GT500R, or even a Boss 5.2 Mustang.

It will be announced soon. It will have better performance on the street than anything before. The MSRP will be $90K, and it will sell out in one day,

I just read about the $60K 2024 Mustang Dark Horse. It seems good.

Many of you EV guys may want the 2024 Lucid Air Sapphire that starts at $249,000. It will be faster than the Mustang for 200 miles when it loses battery power.

GT350's get little love on this forum. I think it's because they are near perfectly balanced from the factory, and a lot of members here like to modify everything up to 1000 hp and want low end torque instead of high rpm smiles.

Anyway, I have a '16 GT350 Tech Pack, and it is a 911 GT3 for 1/3 the price with Ford shitty fit/finish and build quality. It's a wonderful daily, track (ok, not the '16 techs), and road trip car.

I'd agree as the 2019 FPC GR350 is really slow car.

I've only been here for 20 years.

I am really worried about the 2016 GTR350. I'd race at Road Atlanta? Can I bring my old 992 Porsche 911?
