It’s not the most powerful, there’s at least one 1000hp car around.
I’m a modifier but that’s a bit too fast and furious for me

I wish I was Vin Diesel. I'm more like Driving Ms Daisy. Captain Slow.

not even close also it won't be 850 on the road (at wheel) without having an octane booster habit or running meth injection our fuel at best will only stand 700-750 tops before the old coyote's knock their nuts off anyone telling you otherwise is lying.

it may be close to 850 at crank if they're assuming a 15%-20% drive train loss as some uk tuners do to inflate their numbers, by that logic mine is running 805hp - 840hp as i'm 700 at wheels on vpower with no octane booster or meth

That makes sense. What do you think about the car overall?

Horrendously overpriced, really dislike the front bumper. Not keen on the fenders and rear valance. Interior is done well (seen it on another site). Do like the wheels.

i’ve also heard that the power is nowhere near as advertised, so my feeling is the price tag is for the name and bragging rights, neither appeal to me.

could build my dream garage for £140k!

What is that converted from Monopoly money, like $175k?

A fully loaded 2022 Mach 1 is £62.5k, so the question is what can you do with £76.5k? Supercharge, headers, exhaust, wheels, carbon bonnet, carbon boot, carbon doors, carbon front fenders, carbon spliter and spoiler, full carbon interior/steering wheel. Seems hard to spend almost £77k.

all that power and naff all grip to go forwards with it. Seems a very expensive bit of kit but obv someone buys them..

It does have a Torsen differential and a tuning of the final drive ratio from 3.55, to 3.37 to make the gearing slightly shorter

shurely a shorter final drive increases the gearing not make it shorter and they've lengthened the gearing to try reduce wheelspin ?

I am so stupid, I just copy stuff off the Top Gear website. I think my dog is smarter than me.
