Beautiful car and beautiful color!

The Mach's are so awesome and are almost as fast as even the new 11 GT's with a few simple mods. Great pickup. I still kick myself for not picking up a Mach 1 over my car last year.

Thanks a lot guys! If I had known what it's like to drive one of these, I never would have got my GT. But then again I never would have known how much of an improvement they are over a GT if i never owned one.

I'm picking up some Borla XR1's with flowtubes so I will have a "loud" setup. The MRT exhaust sounds great and no drone, not like my GT with catted X and magnapacks.

The GT still has the packs on it and when I get the Borla's I'm gonna put both sets on and see what I like better. Whatever I like better I'll keep with the Mach and the other I'll sell with the GT. It's gonna be nice to just have to bolt in/out the flowtubes and mufflers and leave the over-axle pipes alone.
