For me the answer is simple for many reasons…..Kid Rock, or course. He’s gritty, he’s rough, he’s direct, and he’s from Detroit. Not my #1 but it seems to fit.
In my mind the car has to be a guitarist. I am going to have to go with Ted Nugent or Ritchie Blackmore...not the absolute fastest around but definitely has chops, influence, an attitude, and is pretty loud.
I would go by decades to answer this question, however I do believe that Zack De La Rocha from Rage Against The Machine fits the best in my mind what the 6th Gen Mach 1 is. I can make a thousand comparisons to support my view, so I'll just list a few that come to my mind:
1. Expressive - does it really need explanation, but the looks of the Mach 1 is the most expressive in my opinion.
2. A mixture of features - so as the Mach 1 gets so many parts from GT350, GT500 and GT, so is Zack toying around with furious lyrics, hip-hop and heavy riffs.
3. Loud and screaming - no need to compare - just play "Killing in the name"...
4. Last of a kind - RATM and Zack are most probably the most distinguished and recognizable political hard core band ever.
5. Icon of an era - same as the muscle car era, RATM / Zack have become the flag of Hip-Hop Metal movement. Although there are many others, RATM and Zack's high-pitched voice are immediately recognizable.
