Dealers were allocated cars that had already been spec’d by Ford. Various specs though, so you might have found what you wanted.

Indeed - and if I had wanted Auto , no Recaro seats and a different colour to what I wanted I would have been good to go !

My spec would have been available, however I decided the car was too expensive for me, plus I really like my green Mach 1

Both very fair points.

Well that clears up the reason my 2022 mach i turned up without the recaro seats, the dealers are supplied with factory spec orders to match the supply chain production my dealer just never answered the probelm at the delivery time..

It’s certainly been a bit of an eye opener in trying to order.
I’ve been lucky enough to factory order and hence spec various cars from the likes of Porsche , Audi and Aston and even my last new Ford of whatever year it was ( Focus ST Mountune ) seemed a much easier and more predictable outcome !

Has the Dark Horse orders arrived yet in the UK ?

[alscar]

Afaik no DH’s ( or GT’s )have actually arrived as yet although supposedly there a few on their way.

[Legacywr]

I hear the delivery dates keep getting pushed back.

[alscar]

Tbh the whole experience thus far has hardly been as good as perhaps you might expect when you actually want to spend a relatively large amount of money.

Guess the actaul customer delivery will match the next spec Dark Horse for next year? 2 lots of the bullitt and 2 lots of the mach 1 .

Probably - from the US forums looks like the spec is virtually unchanged anyway other than certain colours deleted and as standard no longer grabber blue callipers but red.
No new colours mentioned either.

A heads-up to advise that T C Harrison in Peterborough has a 2024 model white Mustang GT in their showroom

MMMM does it look good?

[Hereandthere]

I am not due to go and see it next weekend. My son actually wants to see it as a potential replacement for his 718 Boxster. Cars always look better-or worse- when you see them in the metal. I think he is more interested in the Dark Horse variant but at least this will give him a general idea of its overall proportions and looks.

There is a dark horse at Hendy performance in Eastleigh. £75k

Viewable? What colour?

That’s the premium colour isn’t it?

£75k is that a mark up on the Ford list price ?

IIRC, the list price would be around £68k
