Hmm, this is an interesting topic. We had quite a few 100+ degree days here and I drove my M1 around with windows up and A/C on. I drove my normal, spirited self and never once noticed the A/C cutting out or impacting performance. Not that WOT are ever more than a few seconds, but it’s nice...
I just press the button and they turn on:). But seriously, it’s just a fan that draws air somewhere on the back seat, because that’s where you hear it coming from. It’s independent of the A/C.
Even on 95 degree day, you can tolerate windows down and A/C off when you are running the cooled seats. It takes enough of the edge off a sweaty rear end that you can enjoy windows down. The motors for the seat vents are loud though, anyone else ever notice that? Not complaining, just an...
I was in the same camp when searching for my 23’ M1, anything without recaros. I use the heating and cooling quite a bit and find they both work well. The lumbar support and overall comfort of the premium leather setup is fantastic. I still drive plenty spirited and don’t have any complaints...
I had the same problem with my 2023 Mach1. The original owner cut the original exhaust off (blasphemy) and welded in some aftermarket mufflers. The valve motors were zip tied to the frame, but no matter what I did, I got a check engine light and error codes. I absolutely think the computer is...
I’ve got a full Borla S-type on my Mach 1. The system was actually meant for a GT so it doesn’t fit the GT500 rear valence the best, so I was on the fence about swapping over to the AWE setup. ( I previously ran a AWE non-active touring on my 2019) What ultimately made me keep it was just the...
I think there are too many clean, affordable options out there to purposely buy something that already has rust on anything. I did buy my Mach to drive but I store it off and on throughout the winter. If the streets are salty or snowy, I garage it. As soon as it dries up, I’ll pull it out and...
I need some advice. I've got a 2023 Mach1 that I bought from out of state last year. Long story short, the original owner blasphemed the car by cutting off the original exhaust and replaced it with some aftermarket mufflers. I did not find this pout until after the car was shipped up (the...
Your description is spot on. A friend of mine has a brand new C8 stingray. I thought it was a beautiful car and it was way faster than my Mach 1. That being said, it was completely sterile feeling to me. It also convinced me after the drive that there was zero reason to whipple my car...
I would have added Mach 1 to the steering wheel, puddle lamps, and continued the strip over the roof and trunk. I honestly like the power where it's at, maybe added an option for a retune with E85 or 93 from the dealership.
This is exactly why I have decided just to enjoy my Mach 1 in its (mostly) factory form. I’d love a whipple, but I just don’t want to go down that rabbit hole. I did invest in some Steeda springs and the Mach 1 handling kit, but that’s about it. I’m aggressively paying off my car, would like...
Appreciate it! My intent is to run 305’s in the summer and swap back to my factory wheels with all-season HP tires in the winter. In your experience, do you need to realign the car when jumping between this much of a difference in tire width?
The original owner of my M1 cut the factory exhaust off! Why they did it, I have no idea? I know that the original owner of my car was a female, and at least she left the actuators plugged in and zip tied to the frame. The tips she installed with the mufflers were super close to the factory...
Long story short, I purchased my Mach 1 from an out of state dealer and overall the purchase went just fine . The car was in perfect shape but the previous owner cut off the factory Mach 1 exhaust (for whatever reason, I don’t know) and replaced it with something aftermarket and deactivated the...
I was more concerned about the drop of the tips. It looks like the M1 tips make a downward turn as opposed to the factory GT tips. From what I can see from online photos, a GT valance and M1 valance look like they have the approximate same height of exit? I guess I won’t know until we attempt...
I’ve got a question for the group. I purchased a M1 that the previous owner actually cut off the factory exhaust and installed something aftermarket (Don’t ask me why, I would have not have purchased the car had I known, but otherwise the car is amazing) .
I purchased a full Borla cat back...
I appreciate the feedback Blankman, I've currently got my battery disconnected to see if that resolves it for the time being. I'll start it up and keep it in the normal mode for now. If I'm understanding the actuators correctly, they look for the correct position feedback, which is likely why...
Good morning,
I'm turning to the forums for help with a used Mach 1 I just purchased. I purchased a 2023 Mach 1 out of state that only had 3K miles and was supposed to be 100% stock. When the car arrived I noted a CEL that wasn't present on any of the photos or videos that were sent to...
