Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

My very first new car was an '84 GT. I've also had an'85 GT and now the Mach. Given the 20 years between the first Stang and the present, the Mach is a FAR better car but I haved loved all of them. This one though, I will never sell!

And just what is wrong with Mopar? J/K Think I'd have ditched the neon as soon as posible also. Now my (Mopar) Shelby's on the other hand aren't going anywhere and I wouldn't mind a new Shelby GT500 parked beside them.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

My first Mustang, and my first Ford... I'm a Mopar guy... They didn't have anything to match my current needs, so I settled on the Mach after a short search for a Cobra.

Ya know something. I shouldn't even call a Neon, Omni or LeBaron MOPARS. (those were the other cars I had when I lived at home).

How about Do Or Die Garage Experiment.
That is more like it.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

1st Mustang ever! Actually, I'm 27, and it's only my 3rd car ever. My 1st was a 73 Satellite Sebring Plus with a lil 318 in it. I was born, bred, and raised Mopar...

My 2nd car was a 99 Chrysler Cirrus. Blah! Good lil car, with a bit of luxury to it. But come on! It's a 4 door sedan, and the 6 cylinders didn't satisfy my need for speed! lol

But about this time, my parents and brother really started getting into stangs....

3 weeks ago, my hubby bought his first mustang, an 02 GT...and 6 days ago, I got my Mach. :-) By far the best of the bunch!!! :-)

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

Before my Mach I've had at least 30 other Mustangs. My first one, bought in 1990, was a 68 California Special that was on the cover over the March 93 Hot Rod. My Mach was, however, my first 99-04.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

My first car was a black '85 with a 302 H.O. from an '89 model. I've had a lot of memories in that car but now I have to sell it to pay for my mach.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

Yes, saw a review of a blue one in a magazine. Saw the HP and the price and ordered it shortly afterward.

my last car was a white 91 SHO +
My first car was a 81 Z-28.
In between were a bunch of hoopties. And I do mean hoopties.
Next car, Challenger.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

My '04 Mach 1 is my 4th Mustang! My 1st car was an '03 V6 which I traded in for my '04 Cobra. After I paid off my Cobra, me & my girlfriend bought a 40th Anniversary Edition GT & a year later (3 1/2 months ago), I bought the car I had wanted from the get-go! My '04 Mach 1!!!

I love my life... I would have never thought that I'd have my dream cars @ 20! I just hope that I'm as blessed throughout my lifetime as I am right now.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

Some how I missed this. I have owned 56 cars. Three new Mustangs. In fact my first "new" car was my ordered 69 428 SCJ Mach 1. I ordered it with 4:30's and a 4 speed with ram air. My second new mustang was my 02 zink yellow GT and of course the last is my bought new 04 SC Mach 1. Most of the 56 cars I have owned I bought new. My 66 GTO was 6 months old. My 74 455-SD Trans Am was new. My three Corvettes 59,65,and 68 were used. My GNX Grand National was used also. You guessed it I have had car payments all my life. I have the window stickers from most of them.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

This is my very first Mustang and very first Ford. I'm a huge fan of all cars.

I remember reading about the release of the Mach 1 and forgot about it, so I bought a new Mercedes coupe in 2003 to do parking lot racing. I started dating my current GF and her dad had a heavily modified 01 Mustang GT that was set up for road racing. He let me drive it and I was hooked. I went down and traded for a blue Mach 1.

I loved the shaker and the aluminum block, the big brakes and the look of the interior, oh and yes the torque. I really love this car, despite its 70's chassis design flaws, it is a really good platform to do whatever you want, drag racing, road racing, insano street car.

I prefer road racing and have taken it out to Sebring 3 times. My club rents the track all day which means if my brakes and I could handle it, I could drive 6 hours on the road course. My last event I drove 125 miles on the course throughout the day. My friend who just bought a Mach went with me and couldn't believe how hard you can beat on the car and it doesn't even care. This car never fails to surprise me. I took on a lot of cars that day that I thought we faster.

Anyway, just a great car and I plan on keeping it for a long time.

List of mods. White plastic Hurst shift ball. The aluminum shift ball gets really really hot at the track. Going back to stock springs and wheels as soon as I can.

Re: Is the Mach your 1st Stang?

My Mach is my third Stang. Back in 1989 I bought a 89 5.0 LX ragtop. Beautiful triple white demo with only 3000 miles. It was totaled by a tow truck driver trying to impress his girlfriend. With the insurance money I bought a 90 5.0 Notch. Wish I never sold that car. Went Stangless for 11 years until I bought the Mach.
