The 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse has made quite a splash in the automotive world with its promise of high power. However, since its launch, the journey of this vehicle has been far from smooth. It has faced production issues, rising prices, and even seating mishaps. And now, a new debacle has grabbed the attention of the automotive community: a brand-new Carbonized Grey 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse was delivered to a dealership in a rather unfortunate “pre-crashed” condition.
A photograph of the damaged Mustang surfaced on Reddit in the group Justrolledintotheshop. The front of the car showed noticeable damages, with the lower bumper appearing dislocated and the splitter showing signs of a rough accident.
There are speculations about the cause of this mishap. One theory suggests that the car may not have been properly secured during transportation, resulting in a collision with another vehicle or the delivery truck itself. Some Redditors even jokingly commented that the car was designed to be “pre-crashed,” referring humorously to its unfortunate reputation for accidents at Cars and Coffee gatherings.
The irony of the situation is heightened when considering the prestige of the Dark Horse edition. This model is the pinnacle of the 2024 Mustang lineup, boasting high-performance features and a starting price tag close to $60,000. With additional customizations, the price can skyrocket to an astonishing $85,000.
The pressing question now is: who will take responsibility for the damages? It remains to be seen whether Ford or the dealership will bear the cost of repairs. One can only hope that this rocky start for the Mustang Dark Horse does not foreshadow further issues for this edition in the future.
