2026 Ford Mustang Dark Horse SC First Look: A Shelby GT500 in All but Name. Is This Ford’s Best Mustang?

January 16, 2026

It’s a new name, but familiar roots and power, which is why this may be one of the coolest modern Mustangs ever built. I know that is saying a lot since they recently highlighted the new Mustang GTD, but this one here is like MGD Light was to MGD. This time it’s just with Mustangs, as this one gets many of the unique features of the GTD, including its engine and transmission, along with some sick Carbon Fiber accents. There is a Track Pack option that will be coming, plus a Special Edition Track Pack is apparently on the list as well. Watch the video and you’ll see.
