here's what the oem options look like for the mach 1. I may order 1 later but decided the ceramic was a better $ value for me right now. Just got the word that mine will be ready next Monday :-)
I will be driving my GT pp1 back through the canyons and national parks to Vancouver BC to trade it in for the mach. The fact i get to spend my first 1000 miles carving canyons back home in perfect summer weather is just that much MORE exciting!

P.S. can you point me to pics of your Shelby?

They're scattered around in a couple threads, mostly mustangs coast to coast and I don't know how to find them

Don't really have many yet. I'll have to make a thread, don't really know where to put it though.

Thank you. I like it and it's the first one I've had that I picked exactly what I wanted. The pic on there next to the one with the cover, where it's sitting in front of a gray corrugated metal building is when I had the Xpel PPF put on the front end.

Had to be a tedious job if you've ever looked at the front of one, so many curves and coves and sharp angles. He did an amazing job. Only had the front done back to the hood opening.

So far so good. The mountain ranges between me and the new car are all looking clear.

I Was Thinking 1000 Mile Trip Are You Considering a Pit Stop to Change Break in Oil! I Know it's not as Popular Thing To Do These Days But on a High End Machine Like You Are Getting And I'm Sure You Are Gonna Want to Haul Azz When You Can! Anyhoo Just a Thought!

Also You Had Said You Might Get a GFA Genuine Ford Accessory Car Cover Later. Don't Wait Too Long the Accessory Items Are Much More Short Lived as Far as Availability Compared to Service Parts! Also If You Find a Particular Item Per Se Your Front Spoiler Takes a Lot of Abuse Get a Spare Now Vs Later as They Will Only Get More Spendy! Just an Example and Food For Thought!

My dog Tyson and I got home at 2am last night after an epic 1200km single day trip from BC to Alberta and into the garage. The weather was challenging. We hit torrential rain for an hour in the mountain passes. The bugs were insane! The tramlining was really challenging too. This was the heavy freight truck route so the ruts were really bad in some spots. Add pooling water and michelin cup2's and it was a real challenge. I'm booking massage and chiropractic appointments asap LOL!

Gave her a good wash and vacuum today and she's as good as new. not a single chip. The ceramic coating makes the bugs almost simply rinse off. This configuration of the mach 1 is NOT a road trip car. The recaros and cup2's belong on the track, not on 1000km trips LOL! I'm swapping out the cup2's for 4s's as soon as i can afford them :-)

Tomorrow is oil change day!

here she is cozy in her new home...

Funny The Window Sticker Color is Fighter Jet Grey and Fords Internal Name is Cactus Grey. Clearly The Window Sticker Name Is Cooler! Glad To Hear Your Getting The Break In Oil Changed! Must Be about 1400 Km on Her By Now!
