Taylor Swift pulled out all the stops to celebrate boyfriend Travis Kelce’s 35th birthday, gifting him a custom-made 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse at his Kansas City mansion.
The pop superstar, known for her grand gestures, wanted to mark the occasion with a gift that was both personal and reflective of Kelce’s love for American muscle cars.
Sources close to the couple reveal that Swift had been planning the surprise for months, attending an exclusive auction where she secured the first production model of the Mustang Dark Horse, a highly anticipated car among collectors.
Swift shelled out a staggering $350,000 to win the auction, which supported a charity. The base model of the 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse starts at $59,000, but competition at the auction drove the price up significantly.
The gift didn’t stop at just being a car; Swift went the extra mile by personalizing the vehicle with a Kansas City Chiefs logo, along with a special engraving marking the date, time, and location of Kelce’s birthday celebration. “She knows how much Travis loves muscle cars,” a source told NATF. “She wanted something that matched his personality and interests, and she knew this Mustang would be perfect.”
Kelce, a known car enthusiast, already owns a meticulously restored 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible, a vehicle Swift has previously been seen riding in. He also has a Hummer and a Ford Raptor pickup truck in his collection, making the Mustang Dark Horse a fitting addition to his garage.
This grand gesture reflects not only Swift’s admiration for Kelce but also the couple’s growing relationship. It was Swift’s first time attending Kelce’s birthday celebration, and she wanted to ensure it was memorable. The intimate event, held at Kelce’s mansion, included close family and friends, adding to the significance of the gift and the occasion.
The couple, who first went public with their romance in October 2023, have since made several public appearances together, including Swift attending Chiefs games and the duo appearing at events such as a Saturday Night Live afterparty. In September, they were spotted together in New York City, attending a US Open match and later dining at Brooklyn’s L’Artusi.
The couple’s relationship has captured the public’s attention, blending Swift’s massive stardom in the music world with Kelce’s growing fame in the NFL. The $350,000 muscle car is just another example of how their relationship continues to blend their unique worlds—celebrating milestones in unforgettable ways.
With Swift’s carefully planned birthday surprise, it’s clear that this power couple knows how to make special moments count, both on and off the field.
