Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
Too bad the "going for" the writer stated were not accurate. I bet I'd be lucky to get $10k out of mine.

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
That’s funny
With all the attention the car gets these days I don’t get that perception at all. Most people I run into know exactly what this car is... I like the idea the value goes up LOL...

Around here, in bow tie country, not many know about the New Edge Mach. Oh well, their loss.
Pick your poison. |

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
I like the pre production Mach with the side skirts that are different from what they actual came with, looks like the Builltt ones on the car.
I actual like the 99 anniversary side skirts, most people confuse them with 03-04 cobra ones but they are not. try and find those...I've been on the hunt for some time now...

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
I'll never forget my first Mach 1.

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
I think the only reason I keep mine is that you hardly ever see any and they look really good. You can forget about the power. Most cars now have as much and far more.

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
You are right about the power, but I never bought ours new for that. These car are special and I have a smile on my face every time I drive it.

The Mach was the #2 Mustang in the stable when it comes to power from the start. One of the things I liked about the car was the balance. Engine/brakes/chassis were just about as balanced as you could ask. Remember with a set of radials this car would run in the 12’s with little drama. Did not buy it with the expectation beyond what it is. Having spent almost a year now with my 2019 The Mach definitely feels more agrarian, but...this car was never just about power...

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
I snickered when I saw the headline. I am thinking, dude, these are the seriously remembered Mach 1s! You know, the ones that everybody who dislikes the 2021 model is saying "should have had a shaker like the '03-'04 Mach 1"!

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
You are so right, Tony. And if want to talk about forgotten Mach 1s, look no farther than the '74-78 Mach 1s!

Re: The forgotten Mach 1?
Well it seem that Ford also forgot the Mach 1 in the info commercial, having the new Mach 1 run around the track with the 69/70 model years and not even giving homage to the 03/04 model!!
Typical Ford BS!!!
