I daily drive my 22 Mach 1. Couldn't be happier. It's an amazing vehicle.

Dam I wish I could afford one. Love the sound of an American v8

Looks like a good balance of a track car and an every day road car,depending on what settings you have the steering,suspension and exhaust in!

Well done. I really liked your review. I am waiting for my 21 GT Performance pack to arrive. Order it a few months ago. Thanks Tom and Kelly.

Excellent review. I ordered a fully loaded Mach 1 (Appearance Package /Handling Package 10 Speed Auto etc.) from Ford in March. And took delivery in late July. I have owned two Mustangs already, a 2009 (six banger) and a 2012 GT (modified). I traded the 2012 for the Mach 1. So I have had some previous experience with the Mustang. Anyway, after watching the your review, I agree with your ratings. One thing I think I do disagree with you on is the need for a shaker hood which the originals (69 and 70 as well as the 2003) had. I see no need for it, other then aesthetics that is, based on the engine configuration. But that's my personal opinion. As for handling, the car is superb. Around town I keep it in normal mode (well, except for the exhaust note and steering that is). On the highway, Sport + or even better, Track. I only experienced the issues you spoke about during the break in period. Track mode on the highway is like driving on rails for me. The biggest down fall, and it is to be expected, is that the car drinks gas. It is a small price to pay for the pleasure of owning a 2021 Mach 1.

Got one and I love it. I had a 69 Mach 1 many years ago. I Mustangs, but the Mach 1 is my favorite of all the Mustangs.

I enjoyed the video. I have been researching information about the Mach 1 and the mustang models in general. Car dealerships really need to step their car review game up.

I have a sneaking feeling that Lauren will have 10x the amount of subscribers in a couple of years so we all should be grateful that she takes the time to respond to almost every comment here. Just remember some of us little people when you hit 500k and weed thru the comments and reply to us who were with you from the very start lol.

Nice review overall. Very informative

Great job, Lauren!!!

Lauren, which mustang do you think has the best drivability to you. That includes the HPP Ecoboost

Great unbiased review Lauren ! I'd love to see your take on the Mach 1 most people will be buying, the non HP model, to see if it's a better buy than the "standard" GT PP1. cheers, tom

Great review...good job!

Great review!

Very good and comprehensive review. For the heritage look you could argue it needs that hood scoop but it doesn't do anything to improve the performance.

I had purchased a 1969 Mach1 428 SCJ ( Brand New ) wish I still had it. I enjoyed the very in depth review of this amazing car. I agree whole heartedly about the hood scoop, mine was a shaker hood that caught many an eye. If I had the money I would not hesitate to get another one albeit a six speed.

Nice video review. Question for ya: Camaro SS 1LE (with A10) or Mach 1 (with A10)? Did you get a chance to drive the non-HP Mach 1?

I pick mine up tomorrow! Same car just a 2022

Does putting the drive setting on comfort eliminate tramlining? Does tramlining exist in the non~ handling package Mach 1?

Damn this the best review, period

What a machine!! How's the leg room i am 6 foot 7? Thanks

Nice review

Great review, Lauren! 10 all the way.

You own a GT 350R Heritage Edition! 😍🔥🔥🔥

Ricaro seats are only an option for the manual?

I have the six speed 🤩, thanks for reviewing the Mach 1

How did you like the 10 speed in this …? What would you recommend a 10 auto or the Mexican Tremec…?

Hey Lauren - Your perspective on the Mach 1 Vs Bullitt. Thanks

Good video.

will be interesting what the S650 and beyond brings for the pony car. It might be a part bins special, but if future mustangs go electric/automatic, this could be the very last of a special car to own on the S550 chassis.

The hood scoop was not on the first Mach 1's, later it was an option. The only time it was standard on the Mach 1 was 20023-04. The cheif engineer said it was not put on the new Mach 1 because it would not improved performance.

not sure it has wireless apply car play? My 23 Mach1 does not, unless i’m missing something? great review.

Collecting mine Tuesday :)

Just ordered my 2022 model with all the trimmings. Trading in my 2017 Mustang GT with performance 1 package, Roush exhaust and deletes with tinted windows.

How did you get a handling package car with the 10- speed auto? I thought the handling pack was a 6 speed only option?

I think this is the best “all around” mustang for the street and track! If you get the performance package,which i would,i would get a different set of tires for street use,as the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s will wear out very quickly due to their softer compound and they are not all-season/wet weather tires! I would also get the Tremec 6-speed manual transmission and the Recaro seats in leather! I would also get it in the fighter-jet grey color!

If I may, let me ask you one extra question. I know you like Ford (as do I), but consider this scenario. I'm looking at a Mach 1 (A10, non handling pack) which at MSRP comes in around $58K. A '22 ZL1 (with A10) as I'd spec it probably has an MSRP of about $68K. Let's say the real world purchase price difference is somewhere between 7-10K more for the ZL1. Assuming the difference wouldn't materially hurt one's finances, would you spring for the ZL1 in this scenario? Maybe another way to think about it is, if of these two and without agonizing too much over the $'s difference, it woud be your only sports car to drive for the next 5+ years, which one? I've only briefly driven the ZL1 and was impressed by it's stunning acceleration, but not enough seat time to really consider daily life with it vs a mustang, etc. etc. Thanks for your time.

Was it just me or did the "Rates" gauge that popped up when rating a characteristic of the car show a different rating than was verbalized?

Curious 🤔 What All Season Tires Would You Put On It ☺️

Lauren, great video. Sold my manual 991.2 GT3 at a huge profit. Cannot get a 992 GT3 so considering a manual Mach 1 for 1/4 of the price. I like the looks of the track pkg but I wont ever track it. Will I like the plain vanilla Mach 1 6 speed? Will this be a total let down from my 991.2 GT3? My dealer will order me a Mach 1 at MSRP. THANKS

Ordered one in white!

oh yeah and of course test it with the Tremac.

Is the performance of the Mach 1 practically the same as the Shelby GT350? What does the GT350 have over the Mach 1 other than a higher price?

The shaker hood was an option for 69-70 not standard

Now if you could find one on the dealers lot that didn't have the price jacked 10K over sticker

My kinda Car!

How would you compare this with the Bullitt?(which I own)

Always wanted a 71-73 Mach 1, yellow with black stripes and louvers.

Steering setting won’t change the tramlining

Good Job. Where did you come from?

🔥🏎️

The factory street alignment tramlines like MAD, anddestroys front tires in 4000kms, HORRIBLE toe setting. Inside shoulder wore down to the cords. The dealership comped me a new set of cup2's, but told me theyd see me in another 4000kms when id be back for another set.

With 305s up front, you are tram lining all day no matter what setting you put it on unless you have the most pristine roads where you live. In other words don’t leave your driveway and it shouldn’t be an issue.

My first time on this channel, so I might be out of the loop, but is it an in-joke that you always say "it earns a " but it rarely fits what the graphics show? Anyways, good job on the actual in-depth review. These are kinda rare and therefore very welcome.

So basically a GT PP jacked up 10k for a body kit and hood decals. And I thought the Bullitt was the epitome of gouging. If I’m paying that much then it better have a functional hood scoop instead of kiddie hood stickers.

I owned a 2019 Bullitt, but returned it under the lemon law. I like the Mach1, but I'm hesitant.

Stang all the way, I Luv mine 💯💪🙌 🇺🇸.

I saw a Jet Fighter Gray Mach 1 in person a couple of weeks ago. In pictures, I didn't dig it, but in person it actually looks better than the pictures. It's a different type of gray than your traditional boring gray on all other non-performance mainstream cars. The Mach 1 is cool. I think it should have at least 500-510hp and 406-416lb-ft of torque to be the true middleground car of the Bullitt, Shelby GT350/GT350R, and Shelby GT500. Running the same performance specs as the Bullitt is a bit of a let down and would seem like it would be more of a Performance Pack Level 3 (if they had named it that) versus a Mach 1. Manual is the only way to go driving these cars. No ifs ands or buts about it. That being said, I think the world is ready to see what the S650 gen Mustang is going to bring to the table. Rumored intel was brought out months ago that the Mustang might finally get a 4-door muscle sedan version to finally battle the Charger. Ford has not confirmed that nor deny that either. If that turns out to be true, it would bring some much needed fresh air to the 4-door competition sport sedan segment because let's be real here. The Charger is overrated and although it sells, it doesn't come with a manual like the Challenger has which is a let down and people are tired of it being the only game in class where Chevy and Ford have nothing to give any competition to Dodge with the Charger. [Side Note: There was the Chevrolet SS Sedan which I actually own and which is technically a Holden (VF1 and VF2) Commodore from Australia, but now that Holden is out of production in Australia and the Chevrolet SS Sedan was just a 4 year and 3-month limited production run with no advertisement on the car which was poor marketing on GM beancounters, the only 4-door sedan the Charger Hellcat/Hellcat Redeye would give compete with is the CT5-V Blackwing that's on the way. Yes, while the CT5-V Blackwing will be down on power compared to the Charger Hellcat and Charger Hellcat Redeye, it will definitely holds it own even at its starting price $84,990 for the CT5-V Blackwing and unlike the Charger Hellcat and Hellcat Redeye, Cadillac offers that car with a 6-speed manual and I would take the CT5-V Blackwing paired with a 6-speed manual over any Charger tenfold.] Back to the Mustang, with the S550 gen the end of its life cycle, it's time to see what the S650 gen Mustang will bring to the table. If a 4-door Mustang sedan comes to fruition, it will definitely help with the sales of the Mustang nameplate alongside the traditional 2-door Mustang potentially giving Dodge something to worry about. A 4-door Mustang sedan with a 6-speed manual or maybe even upgrade the 6-speed manual to a 7-speed manual (like the Porsche 911s, C7 Corvettes, and Aston Martin Vantages have), offer 4-door Mustang Shelby models like the 2-door Shelby GT350s, GT350R's and GT500s, and instead of calling it just a Mustang, call it a Mustang 'Falcon,' paying homage to the Australian Ford Falcon nameplate and I guarantee that a Mustang Falcon and Mustang Falcon Shelby will certainly get the attention of Dodge and Mopar owners and fans as well as Mustang and Shelby owners and fans without a doubt. 🤞🏽crossed the 4-door Mustang sedan becomes a reality for the S650 gen to take on the Charger once and for all.

Do you think the Mach 1 is better than the Bullitt? I love my Bullitt but the only thing that might be better is the manual in the Mach 1 but that’s not worth trading for in my opinion. I don’t track my Bullitt and it seemed the best fit for my taste which is just cruising backroads and as a daily driver. Do you agree?

Beautiful car, wish it had a "Shaker" though.

Where you say you wish the seats had more comfort... do you mean the seats are not comfortable and you need the recaros or something else?

"to me the audio is the exhaust note" Lauren Fix

How many Mach1s are they going to make?

There were Mach 1's from the first muscle car era that did not have a shaker hood. The shaker hood was not an original innovation for the Mach 1.

Mach 1 with handling pack has adjustable struts. Your tram lining is either the result of negative camber from the struts adjusted or bad tire wear (since this is a review car), not from having 305s in the front. Also, you incorrectly stated that the air vents above the splitter are not functional. In fact both sides of the vehicle are function. Also the plastic pieces on both sides of the Mustang logo are removable to add airflow to radiator on track days. Comments suggesting this is an overpriced GT PP2 are unaware of the additions Ford made to the Mach 1 including all the added coolers, lighter (by 2 lbs) and stronger wheels, plus additional 150lbs of downforce from the larger front splitter and rear gurney flap.

Enough about the tram lines in track mode. I wouldn’t drive track mode on the street anyway.

Love the car and driver. Both are sexy. Wish ford put more power in it though.

Im a little upset the shelby GT350 is not in production anymore 😭😭😭😭

Child seat might work if the child can see forward from the back.

Best review.Love the MACH 1. And you are HOT!!!

Why would ford offer this in a automatic?

Ok let’s get things straightened out. Those fake fog lights can be removed. The drivers side has a tube that feeds into the CAI. Those wheels are not black. They are carbonized gray and are gloss . Those vents are for the trans and engine cooler . Plus rear diff cooler in the rear defused. Dodge doesn’t build a track car period. Chevy relies on a push rod engine with a wimpy 6500 red line. The mach 1 red line is 7400. Your review was kind of lame.

Quality of build 10 cmon I have one cheap plastic and fake leather never a 10 a german competitor is maybe a 10

Huh? You don't know if Ford is going to bring back the GT350? Lady, that model is gone forever in the gasoline version.

Gorgeous lady

You're a very bad lady, you wore out some tires...

you notice she is forever correcting the steering wheel keeping this junk in a straight line..this one reason alone is enough to never own any s550. having owned one for a year i despized that car.

the s550 platform is shite. the alpha platform is amazing forget this ford crap and buy a gen6 camaro
