So I bought Mach 1

[zeonic]

Very nice

[Broduski]

Please supply data that supports any of your claims. Jmatero claims do not count

I never really claimed the new Mustang had any issues, just pointing out that he's mistaken on which model. No need for rustled jimmies.

[VRhooptie]

Someone in this thread knows this car. Best sounding Mustang I've heard.

It does sound amazing. Anyone know the exhaust on it?

My balls are unrustled, yet perpetuating an Internet rumor, specifically quoting "getrag", just leads to the Internet myth that the MT-82 is an issue vs certain cars.

It says it right in the video: Bassani catted X-pipe and Bassani Cat-back.

I had the Bassani off-road X-pipe and Magnaflow MagnaPack on my GT and that **** was loud. I ended up going to the catted X-Pipes as it gave me a headache to drive the car.

I don't know how true it is but I heard that some Mustang owners use different sized resonators on either side of the exhaust in order to cut down on drone.

Wrong Mustang. Glass trannies can be had in the 5.0 and 3.7 Mustangs that debuted in 2011.

The trans in this Mach 1 is a T-56. No problems there.

did someone swap a 6 speed in it? it should have a t 3650 5 speed

I already corrected them.

Yep. Keep in mind it was a 2V, not a 4v. The lack of that raspy metallic sound most 4.6s with cheap exhausts has was by far worth doing the exhaust right (as I alluded to before).


Be sure you're watching in 480p or higher.

[Mayerz]

My only concern:

Why would you buy a car that never seen rain to put it in snow?

[VRhooptie]

As I said. I will drive the car as much as possible. I don't care much for trailer queens. The car is meant to be driven. The fact that the car has never seen rain is just reassuring to me that it has no rust. I already ordered a car cover but the car will be my daily

Car sounds awesome

[DubNMiatafan]

Congrats! Looks awesome. I drove my gf's dad's 04 manual GT a few months ago. It was a damn hoot. Pulled hard at low RPM (such a different beat compared to my Miata) and sounded wonderful even stock. It handled surprisingly well too (considering I heard they were poor handling pigs).

[mikes96GTI]

****ty seats, ****ty fit and finish of the interior, questionable quality, all disappear once the throttle is hammered and torque with the V8 symphony kick in. Good choice. Enjoy it, you can make them wicked fast for really cheap.

I hate that so much. So many American cars have that rattely, tin-like, metallic ring in their exhausts. Sounds terrible.

[kingrukus]

I will throw out the tires when I put the snow tires on this winter. They do look to be original tires. Also the transmission on the Mach 1 is a 3650. It mostly gives problems after 350-400 whp from what I've read. Even then some guys are running the stock tranny with over 500whp

Snow?!?! Poor car..
Nice pick-up however, but please keep it out of the snow! I love the way mine sounds with the bassani x pipe and catback.

[SVTDanny]

No it's not. The Terminators had T-56's. The Mach's had either a 3650 (Same as 5 speed GT) or 4r75w.


OP - Should have bought a Terminator for a tad bit more cash. Oh well - the Mach is a great car, throw a turbo at it and make enough power to tide you over until you can build the bottom end.

[mellbergVWfan]

No it's not.

FYI, not everyone wants a 600whp car.

You don't drop $15k on a Mustang with any other intention than to go as fast as possible.

[mellbergVWfan]

That's true, lord knows I wouldn't expect it to corner.

[VRhooptie]

The car most likely won't see snow but I wont refrain from using the car because it's not sunny out haha. And I honestly didn't want a cobra. I wanted an all motor mustang. Always wanted one. The car will see upgrades but I have no plans into making 600whp
So hard not being able to drive the car though. Hopefully it will get registered Tuesday

[BRealistic]

My only concern:

Why would you buy a car that never seen rain to put it in snow?

Why would you buy a brand new car with 0 miles and then drive it?

[.:1of1500:.]

Looks clean. The black wing looks like an afterthought on these cars, though.

Enjoy it!

[Mr Miyagi]

Nice car, but never seen rain? Right.

History lesson of the day, here is your answer on the black wing. It looks just as it should.

Doesn't make me like it any more on the car posted by the OP. But, thanks for the history lesson.

[Señor Peligro]

Tell me then, what exactly does one expect when buying an '81 Scirocco?

[mellbergVWfan]

50whp. And misery.
