My experience with my 2019 Shelby GT350 is that the black vinyl looks nice in pictures and on the showroom floor but is a huge headache to deal with. It blemishes way too easily. I will be removing the black vinyl stripes on my Shelby but I honestly don’t know what to do with the Mach 1. That...

Is the Black portion of the hood painted or vinyl? How about the accent surrounding the black? And what about the stripes on the sides of the car - painted or vinyl? Please share your source of information.

Got it. Yea screw him. Maybe you should publicly post the name of the Dealer so the rest of us know not to do business with them; and possibly public pressure will make this dealer realize this is a Ford Mach 1, not a Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

How the heck does your Mach 1 build come to an MSRP of $67K? I think that's a mistake. Edit: saw your MSRP sheet from the Granger Ford thread. I see your Mach1 MSRP was $65,095. I also see you are electing every single option -- even the Recaro seats. Wowza. I imagine you realize you are...

If you read the thing you posted, you aren't paying for the B&O upgrade and then paying $995 for the radio.

What do you mean does it look right? Question- why would you buy such a heavily loaded up GT Premium (car is immediately worth in the low $40k-range as a used car) instead of buying a Mach1? Only reason I can think of is you prefer to have Adaptive Cruise Control.

I recommend against the Recaro seats. You will regret them, as I did in my Shelby GT350. I am fairly thin, 6’0 175 lbs; and I enjoyed the look of the racing seats which is why I ordered them. I just swapped my 2019 GT350 for a 2020 GT350 with regular seats and the total cost of that exercise was...

For your information: That’s not an invoice. That’s a build sheet at MSRP.

Just out of curiosity - have you ever owned a car with a flat-plane crank V8? Not bragging, but since I’ve owned 11 cars with flat plane crank V-8s (7 Ferraris, 2 McLarens, and 2 Shelbys GT350), I definitely don’t need to examine further reading on the topic. Been there, done that. The cross...

You make good points, but I do wonder if you know and appreciate the merits of a flat plane crank engine. Calling it “useless” is probably not the best analysis. There’s a reason why Ferrari and McLaren use it. It’s a much more advanced engine design.

I wish Ford had updated the GT350 again and offered it (limited numbers) for years 2021 and 2022 with: (1) Option for automatic transmission (2) New rev-matching for manual transmission (3) Digital instrument cluster (4) Improved steering knuckles from GT500/350R (5) No-cost option to downgrade...

GT350 owners, Kind of a strange scenario, but I have already purchased a base GT350 in Magnetic. It is a December, 2020 build and one of the last ones; it is still at the dealer and has 5 miles on it. Awaiting transport. I could probably reverse the sale if necessary because MSO has not been...

Thanks for this terrific source! Wow. I guess that settles it then. The Mach 1 is not a Ford Performance product. (Hoping the Ford representative misspoke, but that's a longshit. Anyway, MSRP window stickers will confirm.)

Interesting information! I also notice that Ford’s Performance web site talks extensively about the Mach 1! Why would the Mach 1 be a topic extensively discussed at performance.ford.com if it weren’t a Ford Performance product?

No no no. I understand your concern but not to worry. If you look at standard features you’ll see that the “rear seat split bench, folding” is there also. This is simply the nomenclature Ford uses to define the existence of the rear seat vs a rear-seat deletion.

Handling Package is available with the automatic transmission.

Reasonable inference.

Thanks. I don’t agree- I think somebody ought to know - lots of well-informed people here.

Guys I can see the same things you can see on the web site. Have you taken into consideration that the Ford web site doesn’t acknowledge 2021 Mustang models or the Mach 1 yet? Not really looking for conjecture or debate here - just an answer from someone who knows for sure.
