Latest on the rumor mill.

Next Mach 1 to be AWD V8 Hybrid, guess that beats it being an electric SUV.

Re: Latest on the rumor mill.

well, I am curious to see what they do with it; if it is handled as a performance enhancing option then that would be cool.

Re: Latest on the rumor mill.

I find that less disturbing then the pretty much confirmed 4 door Mustang, unless they end up being one and the same.

I can't believe they would do that, that is a special kind of Stupid!!! Bring back the Torino name and make it the Sport 4 door coupe style. This Hackett is not going to Hack it!!!!!

Re: Latest on the rumor mill.

I was thinking they could bring back the Falcon name, a sedan that was still built (and raced) for years in Australia. The only other thing I can think of is if Ford is intending for Mustang to be a brand unto itself, and make it a full line. Bad idea. Edsel level bad.

The only car they have that has a Cult following and they are going to fool around and mess that up too! Falcon, Fairlane,Galaxie,Torino but not the Mustang.

Re: Latest on the rumor mill.

I’m all for an AWD option for the mustang. Then I could drive one year round living in the north east. As far as a four door version use a different name plate. And if there going to use the Mach1 name on anything then hold true to the heart of what the original was. With the 03 and 04 Scott did that and it shows. Hold true to the heritage don’t just throw it on something just because.

Exactly... Do it the right way or not at all. I'm jealous of the Bullitt guys getting several turns on the production line and the Mach1 being passed over. The AWD option is interesting too.

However I might be a buyer of a 4 door Mustang. I don't mind the extra doors. Just call it the Mustang 4.. If 4 doors keeps the brand alive then I'll take it!! I am against car manufacturers telling me what I want, like forcing all Crossover/SUV's on me.. I'll buy and drive the old stuff which is not want the manufacturer wants to hear. Hybrids are ok as well as an option again don't force it on me...

Re: Latest on the rumor mill.

AWD Mach 1.!!! I like the sound of that. Be nice for us in the northern parts of the country.

Always wished that the pony cars had an AWD option.
