History repeats itself. Drop the unique Shelby and replace it with a easier to produce quasi performance model.

     Now be nice.      :)

     But consider the '69/'70 Shelby GT350 with it's 351W engine versus the, it was replaced by, '70 or perhaps even more accurate to the statement of replaced by, the larger '71 MACH I with the 351C 4V (we'll leave out the BOSS 351 as I guess it's not technically a MACH I), or how about the '69/'70 GT500 with the 428CJ FE engine versus the '70 MACH I with the same engine and drivetrain or the '71 "Big-Block" MACH I with the 429 CJ/SCJ 385 series engines?     

     Who.......... performed better?         :o

480 HP would have been a crazy number in 1969 and probably nearly impossible to insure. Now its just a fraction of whats available.

Not just 480 HP but the technology and ability to enhance even further its performance with a few clicks.  Did i mention the superior suspension and tires ?

Not impressed, truly has nothing to make it really stand out and say the Mach 1 has arrived. Reminds me of when they reintroduced the Z-28, just a decal package.  No shaker hood ????

     I could live without the shaker, but it needs the "Hockey-Stick" stripe!        ;)
