05+ Mach 1

[M1 Stang 04]

What will be the future production years of the Mach 1? Will there be anymore, or will the last year for it be 2004?

 

[shatner saves]

yes.

 

[M1 Stang 04]

yes that there will be more years, or yes that 2004 is the last year?

Let me translate "yes" for you....


We don't know about the future special productions of the Mustang, we just know that in the future there will be models carrying the "Shelby" namesake and perhaps the SVT will return. Ford has made no announcements as of yet and the future lineup of 2005+ Mustangs waits to be seen.

Clear?

Agreed.. but I though Ford did commit to the SVT as a 2007 MY?

 

[SVTdriver]

I would think it would be the other way around. That Ford commited to SVT. But there might be a shelby model soon. Since I'm not sure that Shelby Lightning is the best rename for the truck.

what? im almost sure the 2004 mach 1 was the last year for that model

 

[ChromeYellowGT]

Not making a Mach 1 in the new body style would be a crime!

I just got back from seeing the 05 Mustang at a local dealer, part of the GAPDII. I spoke with the Ford engineering manager for the 05 Mustang exterior and structure. He said pretty much the same thing. The SVT Cobra will not be out until the 07 model year (mid 06 calander year). Here's the big news, there will be a Special Edition Mustang GT in March of 2005.

He also said that the GT will NOT get IRS or 18" wheels. Both will be available ONLY one future SVT and Special Edition cars.

The names of the future SE's have not been decided, but reading between the lines I got the impression that the first SE, in March 05 will not be much more than 18" wheels, scoops, stripes and spoilers, probably the Bullitt mode.

He implied that the SVT Cobra wil be the first model with more HP and IRS.

Wouldn't the stripes more of a Mach 1 thing? I don't recall any bullit mustangs having stripes?

I did not literally mean stripes. I said "18" wheels, scoops, stripes and spoilers" just to indicate that from his comments, this first SE will not be much more than a jazzed up GT that will have more form than substance.

 

[SVTdriver]

Ok that clears it up a little. I would rather know what is coming out. But I can live with just a gt.
