No such thing as an 05+ Mach1
I was at lunch a little while ago and I was behind an 05+ Mustang GT with a wing, a blackout panel between the tailights, and vinyl along the trunk lid that said 'Mach1'
Uhhh...I don't know what to say other than why would anyone bother putting that kind of garbage on an 05+ Mustang of any type when they don't make an 05+ Mach 1.???? It didn't even have an aftermarket shaker or racing stripes on it. It was an older guy, probably in his mid-late 50's.
Unless I'm wrong.....

RE: No such thing as an 05+ Mach1
I'd def like to see a Mach 1 by Ford. I've seen a lot of kits out there to essentially clone the 69 Mach 1 body onto a s197 and it looks awesome. I was thinking one day of doing it since I had to sell my 69 Mach to get this car.

^ agree
I am not a fan of false advertising. Saw a red and white Shelby in a parking lot with its owner and I was high-tailing it over to talk to him about his GT500.
Didn't know what to say when I found out it was a poser.[&o]

Around here I call them:
Fallen's and Fobra's.....fake saleens and fake cobra's.
Guess we can add fhelby's to the list too.
For the money spent to make it something else you could have one nice looking and orginal GT....but your money your car......

50/50 on the issue.The proplem I have with it is when someone runs around in theirriced out Hondabragging that they beat a GT500 when in reality they beat up on a stock V6.

Might as well put SC or TC badges and a couple of
Cobra Snakes on it as well just for good measure.
