New Zealand RHD Mach1.
Well the wait is finally over and I have my new Mach1, what an absolute gorgeous car, I drove it home around 5.00pm about 20km and I must say a very different car to my 2016 Mustang GT.

I placed my order for the car on the 26th October 2020, the car was built on the 4th March 2021. My Mach1 sat at Baltimore for a month or so before it received a shipping schedule, then the ship Tirranna ran aground in Chesapeake Bay. The Tirranna was held up for a survey to check it was all OK to sail, then the ship lost its place to navigate through the Panama Canal and then it was held up at the Ports of Auckland, boy what a rocky road to New Zealand.

New Zealand Mach1 cars only had to options:
Manual or Auto and a choice of colour.
Our cars a fully loaded and expensive $97,990.00, I would say we are very lucky to be getting a special edition Mustang.

This will be my second S550 Mustang and very much looking forward to driving and cherishing this piece of history, could well be the last of the true N/A V8 muscle cars.

As was the wait for my first Mustang (19 months) the Mach1 has only been 7 months wait, so I have had a little less time to figure out the mods, here is a list of those mods.

Ceramic paint protection (done)
PPF (done)
Rokblokz mud flaps front and rear
CPC coolant tank cover
CPC brake reservoir cover
Ford Performance bonnet struts
Ford Performance oil catch can
UPR oil pan bolt
These will be fitted in the coming weeks.

I know you are all waiting for the photos, so here they are.

The shadows on the car change the color completely. Looks like a baby blue.

What a journey for that car, great info on the Tirranna. Enjoy it! I think we are in the waning days of NA V8s being available to most of the general public. I certainly don't know how things are in NZ specifically, but the days are numbered in the USA.

Everyone else gets them except us!!
European cars don't have powered Recaros on Mach 1 either, our pricelist says they're only manual (4-way driver and 2-way passanger) and lack ventilation and heating. Perhaps only RHD cars (AU, NZ, UK) have them powered.

Well I’m jealous of them either way! I want the export car headlights as well without the amber colored corners.
