[QUOTE="mustangc, post: 16443766, member: 87570"] I agree a 5.2 would’ve been even better than a 5.0, and I see the parallel with the previous Mach 1 having the carryover 01 Cobra Engine and the expectation that this car might have a carryover GT350 engine. But in 03, the Covra moved up to a blower leaving room in between for an NA 4V in the Mach 1. This time when the GT500 arrived there was already a GT350 carrying the 5.2 NA. But if they were going to put a 5.2 in ten Mach 1, then they could have just kept the GT350...right? That would have been cheaper than developing a new car and it would have performed better. I guess I just appreciate the business condition that Ford is in right now. They are investing heavily in electrification and the F150 is 37% of their overall sales so it will suck up a lot of resources to stay on top and continue to supply the company with much needed cash. The fact that we got a Mach 1 at all makes me happy, and I think they did a great job with the development money they had to spend. At the risk of contradicting myselF, I would’ve preferred they keep the Gt350 in the lineup Instead of this Mach 1. I would really like if they offered both:-) [/QUOTE]
