Seems pretty stout. Hope they do some more features with the Mach 1.

CJ Pony Parts do some really good car reviews and this is definitely one of them.
IMO, the new Mach 1 has all the makings of a great car but it needs a Shaker hood plus five spoke wheels like the one shown below to be instantly recognizable as a proper Mach 1. They shouldn't have to be on the aftermarket options list.

They don't look half as good as real Magnum 500's. American Racing did a modern take that is 100 times better.

Is it really worth only 9 grand less than a 350 though?? Obviously no more 350's.
I guess if you wanted auto, this is as close to an auto 350 as you were ever going to get.

It's actually compared more to the Boss 302 than the GT350. Was the Boss 302 worth as much more as it was over a standard GT? And it's not 9 grand less than the GT350, add $10k dealer markup most dealers seem to have and your paying just as much as a GT350. Local dealer by me has one stickers at $59k they want $69k. I can buy a 750 hp Roush Stage 3 for $73k, only $4k more.... guess which one I'd buy....
Stage 2 Roush with the Podium Package has all the same cooling as the Mach 1, If looking for a Mach 1 I'd look into one of those and possibly save some cash.

BTW Mustang production is also being affected by the computer chip shortage. My local dealer said he could only get one new pickup this month from Ford.

Great video of Revan Evan running 1/4 mile with the Mach 1, gives times and speeds. 1st pass 11.89 @ 117mph.
