My 1st Mach1 sighting in the wild

[MACHtobers Very Own]

Well, I grabbed a few pictures, apologies for the quality. Our club put on a charity car show, and the cars were so close together it was hard to get a decent photo.
The wheels are HRE, say"Flowform", 19 front, 20 rear, but he didn't recall the offset. Shelby American did all the custom work on it, and apparently it's pretty much GT500 underneath. Suspension, brakes, exhaust (it sounds great, really deep), supercharger and probably more. They are just about flush (no poke) at the top of wheel well.

Any wide shots? I've been curious of what a staggerd size would like.
19 front 20 rear
20 front 21 rear
Etc etc

they do it on so many cars but ours :-/

We are 3 model years deep now, and I still have only ever seen one in person, at a car show last September. My wife sent me a pic of a black one on the road a couple months ago so we’ll count that as 2.

There are 3-4 GT500’s at every show, and 1-2 GT350’s. Already know 3 people around here ordering Dark Horses.

Nice having something a little rare.

I still have yet to see one outside of a couple dealer showrooms. There’s a few GT350’s around, including an R, and a handful of GT500’s including my neighbor a few houses down. Truly seems to be a somewhat rare bird

Same here, nearby friend on this forum has his and we have attended some shows together and my wife and kids have seen a FJG on I-75 nearby and that’s it. I like it that way!

 

[young at heart]

I’ve seen exactly one, and it was being fueled up at a station in Cumming, GA just as I was pulling in myself. We exchanged a quick word and wave. Interestingly both our cars were FJG.

Still have not seen one out in the wild myself either, just my own. I've seen a few GT500's and 350's as well but still no Mach 1's. Someone told me there is another person in the area here that has a velocity blue one but have not seen it myself yet.

I still remember when a buddy came to visit and hang out for a week. We did a cruise and a car show while he was here. Before we took off for the car show we grabbed food at the local mall food court and I heard some younger kids yell out as I was parking "yo it's a Mach 1!" with extreme excitement. My buddy and I were a lot more impressed and eyeballing this speed racer car someone had built up ourselves.

I saw one other here in south Florida. No one cares about Mustangs here but us. Ferrari’s or Porsche maybe….Mustangs no one cares and that’s fine for me.

Similarly I have punted on the neighborhood cars and coffee for the same reasons, it has turned in douchebag central and I just have nothing in common with these guys. I like just pulling the car out of the garage and doing my own thing.

It’s a Florida thing. In a place like, for instance, Kansas or Montana folks would love the Mach 1.

Its funny how it varies. Ive seen four mach 1s locally, including the one I had. 1 FJG and the rest white. Ive only seen two GT350s and one other GT500 besides mine in the area.

We love them here in NC, I agree with @davtpa about C&C, ours has a big Mustang presence but the overall vibe sucks, not many real car guys, just people with cars.

 

[cerbomark]

Tenn. seems to love mustang s. Can t wait to use mine when I arrive. As most of you, not seeing many Mach 1 s in my travels .

 

[Eatonian49]

The only one I know that is around where I am is in Denver (red like mine).

I think I remember seeing a non HP FJG one in Charlotte at one point as well but they are surprisingly sparse around the Charlotte area. Or Im just not looking hard enough haha.

I know of two GT500s around me, though. One yellow and one blue.

 

[Coastal-Mach]

In Wilmington, we have six, 3-FJG, 1-White, 1-Velocity Blue, and my Black one. You dont see them around much though. There are quite a few GT500's and 350's. Heck, I saw a HEP GT500 last week at a local show.

In East Texas I have only seen one (mine)
