Is the 2003-04 Mustang Mach 1 the next modern classic?

[@chrishotrod6603]

I have a black 04 mach1 with 6600 miles on it. Love it

[@mustbefast9923]

Love my mach. Im at 12.7 quarter mile with stock engine and bolt ons. These cars respond very well to long tubs and 4:10 gears.

[@wallyc7349]

Nice. I'm at 10.72 with boost and a stall converter on the stock longblock and full weight.

[@rygi23]

12.09 @ 113 w/ bolt-ons, tires and cold air. Machs are great cars. Miss mine a ton.

[@davidpowers8266]

​@rygi23 what bolts ons did you have

[@79chevy901]

They where a nice step up from the 99-04 Mustang GT!

[@jessegray4819]

Just bought a azure blue 03 Mach 1 with 10,000 original miles and I'm super happy about it

[@mikestang679]

2003 and 2004 MACH I and COBRA TERMINATORS, are very collectable, they will be increasing in value, clean ones get big bucks already....

[@SlayerStang69]

My brother had an 04 Mach1, loved it! I look at them at every car show. I hope I can own one someday.

[@TonyTheTruckGuy]

The Mach 1 to Mustangs is like the 392 of the Mopar world. Overshadowed by the Terminator Cobra, like the 392 is by the Hellcat. A decently strong platform to start with, but can't handle much boost at all, just like a 392. Awesome cars still.

[@alexcreel7949]

High compression ratio cars don't like boost. Mach is 10:1. While terminators are 8.5:1.

[@TonyTheTruckGuy]

@@alexcreel7949 Well yeah because the Terminator was literally built for boost haha. Just pointing out the similarities.

[@oldmusclecars9419]

9 years ago, I got an 03-04 Mach 1 to park beside my 69 CJ Mach 1 and bought a beautiful red 04 with 52k miles on it and immediately had to buy another one to play with and bought a black 04. They have all been tucked away in the shop for the last decade. When I bought them, my son was 6 years old and fell in love with them. He turned 15 a few months ago and has been touring the neighborhood in his black 04 learning how to shift gears in his first car. I have a Hellcat Super Stock and he wants no part of driving it, he loves his shaker hood. lol

[@tarzn_worx]

Just picked my '03 up Saturdaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!! Intake, long tubes, full flow master exhaust, diablo tuned!! Awesome ride, definitely stands out!

[@leefoulds2569]

Always wanted 1 of these!! Love the shaker hood. Something that's missing on the new ones!!! Must be the manual though!

[@FORDMAT77]

Love the mach 1, always wanted one for a daily with a ProCharger , in the white or the blue

[@169abr]

The Mach 1 is the only SN/New Edge I’d consider besides a Termi. I love how they sound and the cool retro inspired look. White, Comp Orange, or Azure Blue are 3 colors I’d heavily consider.

[@user-pf6wl4hv5j]

Oxford white and azure blue 👌

[@fontainejr22]

If I could get an Azure Blue Mach 1 and an Emerald Green and Titanium GT hatchback I would never let either one go. Two of my favorite later model mustangs.

[@Riffs_Garage]

I picked up a 2003 mach 1 roller a couple months ago for 2500$. i found a fresh built 97 teksid engine from ford and swapped the heads for a set of 04 terminator heads and installed a set of 01 cobra intake cams and longtube headers. i finally got the engine installed last week. I cant wait to get it running and driving! I need to add it to my channel.

[@censorshipisreal8805]

5.4 dohc swap it.

[@paulhudgins5120]

Man you almost forget 03-04 Mach 1, the forgotten one, the Cobra's got all the attention and sought after. But add some gearing to wake these up, they become a little more of a NA beast. Nice coverage on this car.

[@TylerGamer765]

Ppl are finally realizing these are a hidden gem. I got mine about 8 yrs ago from the OG owner. Done a lot of work to the motor and suspension but you wouldn’t rly know by looking at it These will be jumping in value big time soon

[@JJD-9403]

I have an 03 dark shadow gray Mach 1. 18,000 miles. Fun car for sure.

[@arronk]

I own a 2003 mach 1 in the same color. They are very overlooked because of the cobra, most people don’t even know there was a new edge Mach 1. They are pretty quick for an N/A 4.6, mine dynod 304whp and 328tq and ran a 13.3 at 106 with a 2.2 60’ on street tires with just an off-road x pipe, borla ataks and an intake.

[@bradkrekelberg8624]

The Mach 1 was the driving force behind my finally getting my first new car. It was an '02 GT I immediately proceeded to cut a hole in the hood and put a CDC shaker kit on. I love the Mach 1s to this day. I'd love to find a brightly colored one like red or Azure Blue and just cruise it. I'm not in favor of terminator nose-swapping every possible new edge like people seem to do though. I think the original nose is much cleaner.

[@19explorersport96]

I had a blue ‘03 5spd. Great car. Could hang with LS1 cars. They are under geared (3.55) though. They needed 4.10-4.30. My blue ‘18 5.0 10r80 trapped 1 sec/10mph more stock in 1/4. These would be awesome with a coyote swap. Huge weight savings.

[@169abr]

Coyote_Mach B on KZbin, a beautiful white one.

[@Bobby4v]

I have a 2003 azure blue mach 1 I've owned for 11 years and I love it. It has head work and 96-98 cobra intake cams, bbk x pipe, flowmaster cat back, 4.10 gears, and tuned by diablo etc. It pulls hard up to 7k rpm. They were overshadowed by the terminator but the shaker makes you feel like a badass with 300 hp 😎 haha

[@floydmarseeii4007]

I Love Mach 1’s period!! This one is awesome!!

[@trentonverble8049]

I want a Mach 1 so bad definitely going to get one as soon as I’m able to. A car I have loved for a long time and one you never hardly see in my area. Just something special about seeing one and I love New Edge Mustangs one of the best looking imo I don’t want all these fancy new ones with all the gizmos and gadgets I just want the raw feel of being in a mustang that is modern but yet still old school in some aspects it’s the sweet spot. I have an 01 Bullitt rn and love the car and the dream is to have it, a Mach 1 and if I’m lucky an 03-04 Cobra.

[@jrusted5.031]

Always wanted an Oxford white Mach1. Sounds so good, revs good too on manuals. Good feature 👌

[@GolfInHawaii69]

Mine is an auto but I'm thinking of getting the 5 speed swap

[@Chrismgj]

It’s the automatic fun/ worth it ? I have a 2014 gt convertible and I’m looking for an Mach 1 2003 somebody wants 10k for 138,000 miles with a fresh transmission. What do you think?

[@chrisvela5462]

Forgot to mention the sail panels being unique to this car! Well, this and the Bullitt

[@mikedrury2748]

[@williamking9200]

Don't forget the Mach One had different sailing panels and rear quarter glass than the other New Edges plus the 1960s inspired gauge cluster was a nice touch on those and the Bullitt...

[@DMGDrifts]

My 04 Azure Blue was totaled back in October of 2021, still devastated I want that car back more than anything. Pro tip, be warry of an F150 blowing a stop sign

[@adamcartwright6220]

Awesome cars! I love the Mach1!!

[@jameyrichardson8967]

Yes ABSOLUTELY is!!! The 03-04 Mach 1 is on of my favorite new edge/sn95 mustangs and JUST behind the foxbody in my opinion

[@rickstorm4198]

My favorite new edge model. Im getting old though. Found a a mint 1998 Mercury Grand Marquis today, Gorgeous price is high though. Mulling it over.... 7k but 70k miles all maintenance done and looks like it's brand new. I'll prolly buy it.... 😔 😁

[@guillermogonzalez-cz5ee]

I have a fully built 03. Love the car

[@4vchuckles108]

I love my 04 Mach1! Other then a few easily removable mods mine is stock, and it will stay that way. That being said I still drive it and enjoy it. I call it Shaker therapy 😁

[@bradbradley353]

Bought my 03 new. Still have it. Just under 120k and still enjoying every mile…

[@MattN03]

I miss my 03 Azure Blue Mach 1. It was always a drivers race at the drag strip between my Mach and the LS1's.

[@SN95Power]

I think of the 4th Gen Mustangs, 94-95 Cobras will be. Mach1 are slept on.

[@tommyyancy3902]

I felt like it had zero low end torque compared to my Coyote. It was only happy up top. Had a Steeda shifter in my 03, no lift shifts with no issue until 3 gear started to complain.

[@alexcreel7949]

I adore mine. 03 zy got it with 128k on it. Put a k&n cai, and MBRP cat back exhaust. Perfect driving feeling sound and power. Need a custom tune soon and get my dyno numbers but I love her.

[@1SirCarlton]

With those 40th anniversary badges, looks to be an 04 instead of an 03. Sick car regardless

Who in the heck would Coyote swap a 4.6 4 valve Mach 1 with the shaker hood? Go find a GT to swap.

[@HicksHouseVideos]

One of my favorite new edges!

[@kevinwright1551]

Vary awesome indeed. Keep up the great work. Okay.

[@suqmadiq6653]

They’re RATED at 305 hp. Just like the terminator Cobras of the same years they were underrated on purpose by Ford. Right off the showroom floor they dynoed at 282.3 hp. After you do the math that’s 332 hp at the crank.

[@Bearbait01]

Just bought one today!

[@blueridgekicks3962]

Hell like my 07 gt 3v yea it is a 4.6 but I’ve got a little over 400 hp to the crank it is around 350 to the wheels. There really a great engine for street use

[@305dadecounty_grabberbluem5]

I just picked up a Mach 1 in Houston.....as of today, I've owned 4 Mustangs. My first - - - I had a 95 GT and at the time I wasn't a fan because I always heard that valve knocking, and it was automatic, so the next one was a 2013 GT...wow...loved that 32 Valve V8 and I sold it because I didn't drive it much...next was a Fox Body...1989 and WOW!! I just loved how those 225 horse 5.0 motors sounded and pulled....regardless of power or speed. Then that car got stolen by the mechanic that I paid $13,000 to so that it could be upgraded with supercharger and everything else. Big Loss.....Insurance paid me out but it was nothing and I told myself I'd never buy another project car....literally 4 months later, after lots of research and wanting a 1999 or 2001 Cobra, I pulled the trigger on a 2003 Mach 1 with 70,000 miles and .....OMG, I am so Happy with this car isn't the fastest car, but the sound and driveabiliity ...is phenomenal. Great motor!!!!!!.

[@robostyle9773]

Mach heads and intake are similar to 99-01 Cobra, but the 99-01 Cobra heads have a bigger combustion chamber and smaller ports. Intake same, smaller ports and does not flow as much.

[@knightrider4545]

Thanks for the video. I just got my first fun car a 03 Mustang Mach 1 manual. It has been a lot of fun driving it. Two things that I saw in the video is it has 40th Anniversary tag which should make it a 04. The second thing I think the motor mounts may need a replacement soon as much as it shakes. Still fun video and I will take good care of mine.

[@nothanks1627]

I love the machs, and cobras, but im super happy with my 01 Bullitt in dhg😊

[@bmcd4624]

Good looking ride!!

[@bobforpples]

I just noticed the 40th anniversary emblem on the front fender. I think your buddy’s 03 is actually an 04.

[@mr03mach12]

Great video I love my Mach 1

[@rayjay8322]

That's an 04 Mach1............. Side badges and no net between the sub visors. Intake manifold was similar to the Cobra, but it’s not the same. The MGW was the best shifter for that tranny by far. It's probably not adjusted properly with the stops, My Mach1 loved eating Catfish and Fireturds and even quite a few GTOhhhs. Best N/A 1/4 was 11.6 with stock longblock and tranny.

[@tommyyancy3902]

Traded my 2003 race red Mach for my first Coyote. The Mach is underrated. Ran 13.4 and it was stock except cold air and Magnaflows. Loved the shaker at first, but you get used to it and don’t notice it while driving pretty quickly. Great car, but like my 2014 GT more.

[@Chrismgj]

You don’t think the 2003 is worth it compared to the 2014 gt? I also own a 2014 I’m looking to buy a 2003 Mach 1 with 138k miles He wants $10k I say 6800-7 what do you think?

I'm really conflicted about these cars. With 305hp that's enough to have fun, but it's a very expensive engine to upgrade. They sound great. I never minded the look, but it's always been divisive. Maybe a less expensive GT with a Coyote swap...
