2:40 not true you can remove that and it’s essentially a factory cold air kit. You can bring the air inlet temp down by 5-15 degrees depending on if your in traffic or cruising.
6:37 yeah the 6-speed tremec is absolutely the way to go. It’s smooth, shifts are crisp and you get no lift shift which is amazing. The car actually pauses your throttle input while you shift. The tremec is kind of the reason you buy a Mach 1 over a fully optioned GT.
Yes the Tremec is one of the biggest advantages of the Mach 1, but you also get better wheels & tires, more power, better aero, better exhaust, better cooling, an unique appearance including a much nicer looking front and rear end, and that legendary "Mach 1" name. There's a big different between it and a regular optioned-up GT.
I can tell you as a Mach 1 owner it’s head and shoulders above a GT. It’s essentially a GT350 without the voodoo. It has front and rear subframes from the GT350 as well as the tremec transmission. The engine also has the intake, throttle body and cold air from the 350 and also every Mach 1 has an oil, trans and diff cooler so even if you don’t get the Handling Pack you’re only a set of wheels and tires away. As someone who has a non HP car unless you plan on tracking it you really don’t need it. I can rip down a back road and take an off ramp at 80 and it just sticks like no mustang I’ve ever seen. If you’re thinking of buying one DO IT!! Oh and unless your at full throttle to redline the Mach 1 is faster with more midrange than the voodoo.
good review. are you from OC maryland? my family lives there. i got the Mach 1 with tremac ( awesome) and recarros in FJG. love it! keep up the good work.
Better transmission, additional cooling, track package. The Bullitt (like the GT) is majorly held back by the garbage Getrag transmission. The Bullitt might make sense if you’re an automatic transmission type of guy.
No, the 2015 MY went on sale in 2014. It can be confusing. I distinguish between model and calendar years. If I say a car came out "for" 2015, that's the model year. If I say it came out "in" 2015, that's the calendar year.
@@northrollingacres Well that must be the strangest way I have ever heard someone refer to model year cars. Various cars come out early (prior to year they are assigned) or late (in the year they are assigned). But generally speaking everyone talks about cars as the year it is assigned by the manufacturers. 2015 Mustang coming a month early in 2014 does not make it 2014. You are just confused or confusing the years.
Totally disagree with the comment that you get what you pay for with this car. It’s flat out overpriced. A $45K Camaro SS 1LE matches this in performance for $15K less. I was driving a Focus RS (so not a Ford hater) and I wanted to replace it with something with a V8 before they were all gone. I originally wanted a lightly used GT350, but then I researched the Voodoo engine issues. I even talked to one of the top Ford Performance technicians in the country, and even she said she wouldn’t buy a GT350. So next I looked at the Mach-1, but optioned the way I wanted it (Recaros, BO stereo, handling package) is was over $65K! That’s ZL1 money! In the end I decided to go with the Camaro 2SS 1LE. It cost me $15K+ less than the Mach-1, and is just a set of R compound tires away from matching Mach-1 w/handling package performance. I’d rather just run PS4S tires on the street anyway. So I love the Mach-1, and I wanted to buy one, but they value just isn’t great if you consider the Camaro variants. It just doesn’t make financial sense unless you are willing to overspend.
Why it seems that UA-cam testers have to apologize for the 10A and the original wheels? There are a couple of reviews about the 10A that are honest and show it is not such a big deal. But all these herd mentality testers have to poop poo it and praise the wonders of the tremec. Sale figures show that the demand is even between these two transmissions, notwithstanding all these reviewers. Also, why the herd mentality for the upgraded wheels; they are not unique and all aftermarket wheel companies have a wheel with a similar design
I can't speak for other reviewers, but the automatic suffers for the reasons I described. As for wheels, that's the most subjective. I like them, and they're worth it when you buy this car new--the upcharge is $450 for the set, no package required. Quality cast aftermarket wheels at this size will run $600-$800 each.
@@northrollingacres Thanks for your honest reply and apologies regarding the transmission. Maybe there is a generational difference in terms of the wheels. That design has been around since the Mustang performance package was around. It doesn't really reflects how the 69-70 Mach 1 looks like. But as you said, it is subjective
Probably the same trans as in the SS but not the z. Wouldn’t handle all the torque. And yes, the z with almost 200 hp is just on another level. Ps, the z also come with m6.
"God, that exhaust is loud" -- That's the whole point of this car, and that's who Ford caters it to -- teenage idiots who want to cruise through sleepy residential neighborhoods and accelerate to make windows shake, the later at night the better. There are occasional race events in my neighborhood of those young thugs where dozens of them come (everyone except for the police, too scared to come without US Marines). Talking to them is pointless, since very few of them actually speak English, at least the understandable variety.

I didn't expect cargurus to have such a good review. Guy gunned it, and actually tore into a lot of details other haven't. Solid. Good stuff.

the 10A also has an upgraded torque converter btw. 6spd tremec is the way to go though, imo.
For those of us pondering a M1 versus a lightly used GT350 for ~$10k more, is the handling feel on the base/non HP Mach similar to a GT350?

Great review. Thank you
The Tremec transmission is the selling point for me.
The rally light deletes in the center grille is just bizarre. Why bother molding those in if there no lighting option?
The hand brake is a "must have" for a moonshiner 180!
good review. are you from OC maryland? my family lives there. i got the Mach 1 with tremac ( awesome) and recarros in FJG. love it! keep up the good work.
How does this differ between the Bullitt aside from appearance?
Better transmission, additional cooling, track package. The Bullitt (like the GT) is majorly held back by the garbage Getrag transmission. The Bullitt might make sense if you’re an automatic transmission type of guy.
It’s a phenomenal car
Ive seen rn a used for 48k in texas. Once new 2023 mustang gt and dark horse get release these mach 1 prices will go down
You are incorrect this generation Mustang came in 2015, not 2014.

I like this guy, though feel he may be more at home on a Prius or Cube with those orange sneakers.
Nice!

Actually the Mech E gt is probably faster 😉
mach 1 has a higher top speed so is faster than the mach e gt. However the mach e gt will have a lower 0-60 time, so it is quicker.
I've actually raced one(Mach-E GT) in my Mach-1. Didn't have me off the line or at any point. I had a car and a half on him the whole way.
Get a manual. Simple
$60k, hmmmmmm. Getting real close to zl1 territory.
The Mach-1 is overpriced by $10K.
Seen an automatic with no manual and stopped watching the video
LOl, I did the same.
Good looking car inside and out. But why test a automatic Mustang? Makes no sense
probably didn't had any manual version available, sold out nobody wanted the automatic lol🤣
I’m sure it’s what was available.
This is a real MUSTANG and not that electric junk they call a Mustang Mach E
Mustang Mach E > Mustang
@@HOTPLATEGAMING its a s650 big deal
@@HOTPLATEGAMING CAMARO > MUSTANG > all motorcycles of the World > Mustang Mach E
Got the reactions I wanted 😂😂🙆🏻♂️
I'm sure Mach E GT is quicker than the Mach 1.
i can't think of a rear end assembly that's more horrid than the s650
Prop rod and no engine cover for $60K, plus a sub standard trans? Camaro ZL1 all the way.
Sub standard trans? It’s the same trans from your prefered ZL1.
So the camaro is sub standard and has no engine cover and you want to buy it for 60k? Ok fool.
What's the big deal with engine covers? Seems to me that they would just hold in more engine heat!
Probably the same trans as in the SS but not the z. Wouldn’t handle all the torque. And yes, the z with almost 200 hp is just on another level. Ps, the z also come with m6.
@@gtrance3567 no not the ss. The 10spd auto in the Mustang is the same in the ZL1. Also found in the Raptor. The SS has it’s own thing.
