Used Ford Mustang Mach 1 for Sale in Phoenix
Last updated April 2026By Akash Chhabra, Owner
The Ford Mustang Mach 1 is a track-oriented special-edition Mustang with a nameplate dating back to 1969. In the modern era it has been revived twice: the 2003 to 2004 New Edge Mach 1 (4.6L DOHC 4-valve V8, 305 horsepower, shaker hood) and the 2021 to 2023 S550 Mach 1 (5.0L Coyote V8, 480 horsepower) with Shelby GT350-derived suspension and aerodynamics.
The Track-Oriented Special-Edition Mustang
The Mach 1 is a track-oriented special-edition Mustang with a rich legacy dating back to 1969. The nameplate has been selectively revived twice in the modern era — 2003 to 2004 on the New Edge Mustang platform, and 2021 to 2023 on the S550 platform — each time signaling a driver-focused, track-capable spec above the base Mustang GT.
The 2003 to 2004 Mach 1 uses Ford's 4.6L DOHC 4-valve V8 — the same architecture as the legendary 2001 Cobra — producing 305 horsepower in a lightweight package with a shaker hood, Magnum 500-style wheels, and the distinctive blacked-out hood scoop. Collector demand has climbed steadily since 2020.
The 2021 to 2023 Mach 1 revival uses Ford's 5.0L Coyote V8 producing 480 horsepower, paired with Shelby GT350-derived suspension, cooling, and aerodynamics. Arizona Elite Motors hand-selects Mach 1 inventory for original paint, documented service history, and collector-grade cosmetic condition.

Ford Mustang Mach 1 Frequently Asked
What engine is in the Mustang Mach 1?

Is the Ford Mustang Mach 1 reliable?
The Coyote V8 in the 2021 to 2023 Mach 1 is one of the most reliable modern V8s. The older 2003 to 2004 Mach 1 uses the 4.6L DOHC 4V (same architecture as the 2001 Cobra), which has a strong durability track record when properly maintained.
How fast is the Mach 1?

What's the difference between a Mustang GT and Mach 1?
The 2021 to 2023 Mach 1 adds Shelby GT350-derived suspension, cooling, and aerodynamics, plus a more aggressive tune on the Coyote V8 (480 hp vs the GT's 460 hp). It handles measurably better on track.
Is the 2003-2004 Mach 1 a collector car?
Yes. The 2003 to 2004 Mach 1 is increasingly collectible. Original-paint, unmodified examples with documented history have appreciated steadily. The shaker hood, Magnum 500 wheel design, and limited production numbers support long-term value.
Manual or automatic Mach 1?
The 2003 to 2004 Mach 1 came with either a Tremec 3650 5-speed manual or a 4R70W 4-speed automatic. The manual is the enthusiast and collector choice. The 2021 to 2023 Mach 1 came with either a Tremec 6-speed manual or a 10-speed automatic.
