Quick story, I had a 2015 GT, had to sell that because I was building a house. Once I moved, I bought a Lexus RC350, I had it for 4 months and it was way too slow. Sold that and went with a 2018 Camaro SS, it was a good car, I felt that the mustang was in a weird place in 2018 and nothing really stood out to me. I wanted a GT350, but at the time there was so much outrageous markup I just couldn't justify it.

So 2021 rolls around and after a shit bag of a year I decide it's time to go back to Ford. So I started looking for a GT350 and saw a Mach 1 and fell in love. I was going to go black but when I saw this white one I knew that this was going to be the one.

I bought this with no test drive, I was in and out of the dealership in the middle of nowhere Georgia in an hour and immediately was shocked how much of a different car this really was. I thought it would feel comparable to the Camaro but boy was I wrong. This car is in another league.

Here she is in all her glory.

Camaro was manual and so is the M1.

To me the Camaro sits alot lower in the driver's seat, I feel like I've got such a different and much broader view of everything. The transmission is a lot smoother and feels much more natural. I always felt like with the Camaro you really had to get on it to feel the power while the M1 just feels like it's hungry and ready to pounce at 3k rpm's.

Overall it feels like a car that is built to be a monster while the Camaro you really have to wake up and poke with a stick. If any of that makes sense lol.

One last thing, the Camaro had rev match and to me it was unusable and I had to turn it off, the M1 hits the rev match beautifully so big difference there.

Congratulations, looks awesome. My brother and I bought one from the same Dealer you did and drove it back to Illinois.

In Sport mode, the throttle body opens super fast as they have pedal vs percent open way above linear. In track mode seems to be linear as on the track this will save most people from over cooking it out of the corners.

Thus on the Street the Mach 1 is just a blast to drive as the torque really kicks in, the sound make me smile every time I'm in it and the steering response and Brakes will put you through the windshield.

We just love it too, enjoy.
