Virtually every time I have my car out a couple people will ask if my car is a Mach 1. My car is de-badged and only logo on it is the gas cap so there's nothing obvious for people who don't know the cars.
I get why they are asking and they are curious but it's often just someone walking by and not looking for a whole thing about trim levels etc. So my answer is always something like "no, it's just a regular Mustang". Almost every time that leaves people more confused and almost disappointed because they thought they knew that fastback shape meant Mach 1. I even had someone come back a few minutes later after googling it on their phone and tried to convince me that my car is in fact a Mach 1.
So any fellow non Mach 1 owners out there have a go to answer for this that is short and sweet and might leave some people happy with themselves for knowing a thing about cars, short of just saying yes it is?
BTW Had someone walking by the other day that asked if my car was a Mach 3. I really wanted to tell him yes, it's the original Mach E, but didn't want to make is brain break.
