Mustang Thunderbird F150 & '22 Mach 1 on order.
That GB would look awesome with the red stripes instead of the white, especially with the red calipers. Need more pics of the Oil Slick Purple.

I agree, the stripes break up the grabber color nicely.

I would inappropriate things to that grabber blue car 😍😍😍
I’m with you, the more I look at that color I really like it. One of the best GB retros ever IMO

agreed. if I had the funds, I would buy that, and never look back. I wouldn't change a thing this time around, I realize to me in my life, more hassle than its worth
just caused me more things to fix Lol it was fun though. I learned a ton doing breaking and fixing things but I would just buy that and enjoy it, ford did a good job on it.

Buy that one. You’ll have it before summer 😃
I have found a couple waiting to be delivered, none are HP but at this point any Mach is better than an HP on paper. So many decisions.

Why do they make non HP cars? It is like the 2016 GT350's that came without the track pack...just dumb. And yet, 98% of what you see for sale are non HP cars...go figure. A non HP car is a performance pack 1 with Magnaride, is it not? Such a head scratcher to me...

They sell more base Mach 1’s than HP, with good reason. The HP requires sacrifices that most buyers are not willing to make.
unlike the gt350 tech cars, the base Mach’s come equipped with all the necessary coolers to avoid overheating on track.
the base Mach 1 can be viewed as a loaded PP1, plus more. It’s a close comparison though.

All exported Mach 1s are non-HP. The reasons (I imagine), even for domestic ones, are that all HP features are targeting the track use and bring some compromises for a daily street driving. Starting with Cup 2 tyres and wider wheels, over the lower clearance from the front lip and decreased visibility over the rear spoiler. I believe HP Mach 1 is very good track car, but non-HP Mach 1 is better for the street use. It is good to have both options.

Thanks for posting.

Well-lit pics of the Mischievous Purple have been difficult to come by. I'd definitely like to see more at different angles.

If the owner of that one, I'd change the rims, for both style and to compliment the color more still.

Both great points. I have just always been of the mindset that these specialty Mustangs should be used for their intended purpose.
