Very interesting indeed. I still haven't seen any other Machs on the road (and Brian aka GR8WYT) works down the street from me! That being said, I am a teeny bit grumpy about the numbers as it relates to cost. Looking back at the press releases, they did say there would be 6500 2003 Mach 1s. As a legal matter, that is a classic bit of false advertising, and very common in corporate America. These statements are all reviewed by the legal department (believe me, that is the case), but then somebody in marketing or production says "hell, these things are selling, let's make more" and then they just ignore what they said before.

Again, I'm 100% happy with the car, love it when groups get together, and am still -- almost a year later -- eagarly awaiting my first encounter with another Mach on the road. Hell, I've had some great encounters with '03 Cobras where we exchange thumbs up and big smiles. I just don't like it when they try to bilk the customer a little bit and push the limits.

Anyway, to evoke The Who, Long Live Mach!
