The Nismo Z and Dark Horse Mustang shouldn't exist. Few people buy dedicated sports cars anymore, but Nissan and Ford built them anyway. And combined with the BMW/Toyota collaboration that is the GR Supra these three make us a rare breed that's hard for manufacturers to justify. Thankfully they do exist and we put them together, back to back, on a cold and snow speckled mountain road.

@shawnsanders9450 2 месяца назад

Well for 1 thing the better comparison to today's Darkhorse would have been the 2003 Mach 1 or at the very least the Bullitt. Not to mention for that money I would have gotten a Firebird Formula and sorta did as I bought a brand new 2001 Pewter Z28 in 2002 for $21k. Fun VERY fast car for the time. Would smoke a much more expensive 2001 Cobra. I do hear you on the price. Inflation is killing ALL of us. My brand new 2019 Mustang GT BEFORE my TTT, down payment, trade in, ect was $39,550 in Oct 2018. Its a Premium package, Ruby Red upgrade, 20" wheel upgrade, Navigation. The MSRP was like $48k. I got a good deal on it getting that much off the MSRP. A year or 2 later the price on the same car jumped up quite a bit. Until just recently my car has been worth more than I paid for it. The fact everything is going up so much in price but no one is getting paid more is a real problem.

@godsconscious 2 месяца назад

Have you not looked at Camaro prices? If you want budget muscle go for that. And the Mustang EcoBoost start at 32K. The dark horse is one of the highest trims. There's a gt prem which is still kind of expensive. If you're buying new these days you're kind of a sucker anyway. These things drop a lot of value.

@pwk879 3 месяца назад

The problem is that it should be about $5-6k upgrade over the Performance trim instead of the $10k-15k it is, and *needs* to come in a manual. 2013 GT Mustang here. This is probably the last generation of gasoline sports cars before everything is at least a hybrid if not EV. You buy these for old school engagement.

@tonysteppan8495 3 месяца назад

Having had a 370Z and Mustang Gt's with the performance package, ending in 2016. all manual cars, even the Z. I have had the itch to get a new one. Even look at Corvettes for 2024. I'm just old, I guess Gone are gages. It's turn into gizmo world for an instrument panel. Dealer games with pricing should be Dropped by the manufactures. When looking at the new Z, you open the door and it's my 370 on alot of items. But improvements are welcome. I'm finding dealer mark-ups on Nismo's that aren't mentioned till you start visiting the dealers. Same with FORD. Toyota has a $5.000 mark-up on what little they have for a GR. Sorry to wine. It's great seeing all three cars, and the opinions of all three. Yes, the Z is truly quite nice. Oh, this clip was about driving, but service cost on any of these is magical. But that goes with the performance aspect of any new or old car.

I haven't gotten to drive a Dark Horse yet. However, as a 2022 Mach 1 owner, I will say that if you're a potential buyer who is shying away from the Dark Horse due to the insane price tag or the touch screens all over the place, definitely go test drive a used Mach 1 with the 6-speed Tremec. You will NOT be disappointed one bit with your purchase. It is an absolutely phenomenal car. I work full-time from home, and I always cherish the opportunity to go for a drive, even if it's just a short trip to the local grocery store. Every minute spent behind the wheel is a delight.

Must have been in Hackensack, NJ. Let me tell you a story: Apparently, Toyota of Hackensack sold a lot of supras close to invoice so that they could become a top selling supra dealer and sell more cars than everyone else. But as soon as Toyota saw that they were a top supra dealer, they started sending most of cars to them. Talking roughly 20 Supras a month. So what did they do now that they have all of these allocations? They raised the prices on all supras. And now they’re I have the market all to themselves because they got all the allocations. I think many dealerships are doing this, and it’s a shame, because they are essentially price fixing.

@MrHighlyEvolved 3 месяца назад

Ford needs to go back to the drawing board with the Mustang's steering because everyone seems to say the same thing about the lack of feel, yet the Mach 1 didn't have the same complaints. How do they mess that up from one generation to the next, especially when it's largely the same car?

The new Mustang 2024 is ok but not a huge visual better look than the S550. The front bumper is too busy with the flat black below the headlamp area. No front fog lights with the huge sorta fake vent area are not so visually appealing. The nostril look does not have the same subtleness of the S550 GT and higher trims. The rear requires a wing to make it look nice because the car lines are more ridged than smooth. It's not bad it's just an "ok" look overall.

Good video review. Thanks for taking the time to review these. Having owned both a Supra 3.0 and a Dark Horse, I agree with your assessments. The Dark Horse is a powerful and heavy car, butI disagree with the steering feel comments. Mine had the handling package & MT, but the steering gear is the same in the reviewed car. Better handling than the S550 models in most cases. The Supra is lighter and cheaper. Sounds good also. If you can find one with a manual transmission, it’s probably the best bang for the buck. They are not producing enough of those for our market though at the moment, unfortunately. The whole BMW thing never bothered me though, as that’s largely a fact of existence today for small volume coupes and sharing platforms across companies.

I bought a 2019 Nissan 370Z 6MT sport pkg coupe for about $33k. I put a good aftermarket intake and exhaust with a dyno tune to boost the crank hp from 332 to about 387 with 94 octane gas. I also put stiffer anti-roll bars with forged magnesium monoblock wheels for a total vehicle weight reduction of about 120 lb to get a weight of about 3266 lbs. The car performs on par with a 911 Carrera S, for much less money. It's a fun car to daily drive and to take out on canyon roads here in Northern California. The cars in this comparison are badly overpriced, too heavy and are lacking the responsiveness and feel that are the hallmarks of a good sports car. Instead of spending money and adding weight and complexity on things like Magneride, I'd rather just have an ultra lightweight and responsive suspension that handles with precision and that maintains the suspension geometry when pushed hard. In this case, less can be more when form is made to follow function and to do it as well as possible with minimal compromise.

The horse will be price gouged beyond your wildest dreams. The fans will die on any hill before saying the 10spd isn’t good in any form in an argument, they’ll gatekeep that Tremec to the grave lol

The fact that the Dark Horse can even run with these cars is a testament to how far Ford has taken the "Pony/Muscle car". With a 6 speed this would probably be my choice.

I agree on the manuals.. As a consumer and buyer of a challenger scat pack in recent years... I got the 6mt because that's more fun as a daily and always puts a smile on my face. The automatics get old.. Fast.. Ask a new c8 owner.. Most of them already trading in or selling because it's so good it's boring.

The Z for the win- some manual controls and a real handbrake! But it's expensive and the Nismo should offer manual trans. Would rather have the base to be honest. Supra a very close 2nd, and maybe with the manual, 1st place. Plus, you can get it with the 2.0L. The Mustang is very nice, but it is bulky and expensive.

The more videos I see on the dark horse, the more I'm tempted to buy one. But I am already rocking a paid off 392 widebody with a six speed. If the darkhorse had AWD and a tow package I'll defiantly would trade something in for one.

@Dolby109 3 месяца назад

Imagine putting manual recaro's in a sports car, but not a manual transmission. The cost and the auto are serious letdowns for the NISMO. Were it's price more appropriate, and they still offer a manual (which I can't think of a reason why they don't) it would be a winner all through. The Z might have the best steering (of these 3), but on track it still looses to a manual Camaro SS 1LE, manual Mustang DarkHorse, and a manual Supra.

@stephen3164 3 месяца назад

My S197 RS2 weighs 3,500 pounds - 500 lighter than the new Dark Horse - but is the Mustang a sports car? Maybe in certain company, but not when compared to smaller/lighter sports cars like the Zupra and the Z. Of course after jumping in my NA Miata, everything else feels heavy.

@dr.sherifsoliman8576 3 месяца назад

Great comparison though I wouldn’t have handicapped the Supra and the Darkhorse with the automatics. I agree that no manual is not a dealbreaker, but I would definitely deduct points from the Nismo for it. On that note, question for Todd. Would you buy the Nismo in auto or the performance with a manual?

@EverydayDriver 3 месяца назад

We reviewed the standard Z in a different comparison. In short, the driving experience of the Nismo is worthwhile. Having a manual in the base Z isn’t enough to make it worthwhile. Thanks for watching!

@thisiswtfitis 25 дней назад

6spd nismo rz34 thats lighter than a gr supra with hydraulic steering: 6spd z34 (1460kg) with 4 mods: 1. good coilovers 2. chassis bracing (uses same chassis as rz34) 3. subframe collars 4. Torsen LSD (not viscous) I feel it. Cornering VERY HARD is planted like what they say. The high revving 3.7 is enough for backroads. Good for those who like to tune and save money.

If anything were to happen to my old C6Z, I'd have to seriously consider a GR Supra /w manual. I'd REALLY miss the huge power of the LS7, and 22 cu ft of cargo space, but, the GR would seem to be a good compromise. The C6Z is only 3,153 lbs, so I'm used to a very light car and the GR might feel similar.

Bet it isn't too impossible to swap a 370z manual trans in the new Z. It's basically the same car underneath. Some people have already manual swapped the Q60 rwd already using the 370z mt.

@WyattWill 3 месяца назад

Nissan lost the plot with not giving the Nismo a manual option. That was the biggest reason people were most interested in the new Z to begin with. Unless Nissan puts some of the upgrades of the Nismo into the base Z with the manual, you may as well just get a well-taken care of used 370Z, a Nismo one. And the Mustang doesn't even seem like a Mustang anymore. It's more of a luxury car than a sports/muscle/pony car now. Which I'm sure appeals to certain buyers, but I don't see younger buyers very interested in Mustangs like they were 2014-2020. When/If Toyota makes a targa top Supra manual it will be head and shoulders above whatever competition it has. Plus the Supra engine and transmission has proven to be a tuner favorite with reliability. As it sits it's easily the funnest of the bunch.
