Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
Missed out on one of those Mach 1 moments yesterday.
I was out in my GTI on Sunday and saw an azure blue Mach 1 drive by. It is so rare that I see another Mach 1 and unfortunately I wasn't in my Mach 1 at the time. I gave a thumbs up when driving by, but didn't see if it was even noticed. Worst part was that I usually drive the Mach 1 over to pick up my mother for the day and use the GTI to drive her back. I reversed the two, because I was going to fill up the Mach 1 on the return trip. If I had done my normal routine, I would have been driving the Mach 1 at the time. Anybody else see other Mach 1s when you are not in your Mach 1.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
We usually see other Machs when we are in the TB. If we're in the Mach, the others we see are going the other way on the Freeway. There are a couple in our car club, but we never seem to make the same events.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
Just seemed so wrong to finally see another Mach 1 and then realizing that mine was home and in the garage. Then again, I'm sure just the opposite has happened when I've been out in my Mach 1.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
Yeah, that's similar to what I was thinking. That the owner of the Mach 1 probably thought that VW owner wished he had that Mach 1....or had one once.

There's atleast 7 Mach 1s here on Fort Campbell that I know of. 3 including mine that all park in the same parking lot, we live in the same barracks building. There's mine, a stock AB and a black one with red hood stripe and door stripes. So, I don't think anything of them when I see them when I'm in my truck. It seems odd to have so many Mach 1s in such a small area though.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
i've only seen 2 in Huntsville. 1 was Torch Red (like mine) and the other was a Screaming Yellow. Funny how you never pay attention until you own one..........and it sort of makes me made when I see them because I wanted to be the only one around here with one!!

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
This is the first Azure Blue I've seen in years. There was another Zinc Yellow around when I got mine 3 years ago, but I haven't seen it in a long time.
I know of at least two black Mach 1s south of me (members here) and once in a great while I see a Torch Red one. Any Mach 1 sighting is very rare. That's why it was so frustrating to not be in my Mach 1 when I saw that Mach 1 the other day.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
All I see is machs in my area, I could throw a rock in any direction and hit at least 3. I hardly ever saw them at car shows but since I got mine theres at least one or more at every show!! Although I never see them driving unless im in my van, go figure!

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
I guess that shows that other Mach 1 drivers are noticing yours.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
I never wave at anyone when I'm in my Focus. If I'm in my Mach and see another Mach or Mustang, I wait for THEM to wave first. Thus, I very rarely wave. I don't wave at air.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
Saw a guy the other day in a AB 04 as I pulled out of the shop. The car had 18 AFS Replicas and was lowered. I pulled out and stopped in the middle of a 6 lane highway just to talk. He was not wearing a shirt and refused to turn the radio down to talk. I was yelling to tell him I liked the car but just had this look of disgust on his face. I was driving a customers 2001 Beetle so I'm sure he thought I was a tool. I really hope it wasn't his, there are enough D-bag stang owners as is.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
That's because he expected to see a chick behind the wheel, not a dude.

Re: Seeing another Mach 1 go by when you are in your other car.
The way it has been raining this month, I'm lucky to see my own Mach 1 outside the garage.
