In this episode of Throttle House, the iconic trio of muscle cars - the Challenger, Mustang, and Camaro - go head-to-head for the last time as new models. The star of the show is the Challenger Dark Horse, a heavily modified Mustang GT that packs a punch with its 500 horsepower and six-speed manual transmission. This beast of a car boasts specialized cooling systems, unique chassis tuning, and beefed-up front shocks, making it a force to be reckoned with on the track.

The team at Throttle House puts the Dark Horse to the test, pitting it against the Mustang and Camaro. The Dark Horse proves its mettle with impressive performance, gripping the track with its sticky tires and stopping power of its monstrous brakes. The interior of the Dark Horse is not to be overlooked, with its blue stitching and graphics adding a touch of flair to the overall experience.

But the Dark Horse isn't the only contender in this showdown. The Mach 1 Mustang makes an appearance, and despite not being allowed to do a lap time by Ford, the team managed to get their hands on one thanks to a generous owner. With its sticky tires and confident handling, the Mach 1 proves to be a fantastic track car, giving the Dark Horse a run for its money.

In the end, it's the Dark Horse that steals the show with its impressive lap time of 1:10, putting it in line with the likes of the M2 CS and almost reaching the level of the M5 CS. The Dark Horse's performance and aggressive styling make it a standout in the muscle car lineup. So, as we bid farewell to these legendary machines, the Dark Horse proves that it has what it takes to be a true contender on the track.
