2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1: A Modern Classic with Only 9,486 Miles


The 2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1 is a nod to the iconic muscle cars of the past, blending the performance and style that Mustang enthusiasts crave. This particular example, with only 9,486 actual miles, stands as a pristine piece of automotive history, preserved to near-original condition with a few tasteful upgrades.


A Brief History of the 2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1


The 2003 Mustang Mach 1 was introduced as part of Ford’s “Living Legends” lineup, paying homage to the original Mach 1s of the late 1960s and early 1970s. With its retro-inspired design, the 2003 model brought back the famous Shaker hood scoop, unique “Heritage” interior features, and a powerful V8 engine. It was a limited-production model, aimed at delivering a modern interpretation of classic Mustang performance and style.


Under the hood, the 2003 Mach 1 came equipped with a 4.6-liter 32-valve DOHC V8 engine, producing 305 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. This powerplant was paired with a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, providing a thrilling driving experience. The Mach 1 also featured improved suspension components, upgraded brakes, and a distinct visual package that included special badging, a functional Shaker hood scoop, and unique Mach 1 wheels.


This Mach 1: Specifications and Features


This Mach 1 is finished in the eye-catching "Torch Red" exterior color (Paint Code: D3), a vibrant hue that perfectly complements the car’s aggressive stance and heritage-inspired styling. The factory paint is original and has been meticulously maintained, showcasing only minor road flaws that are barely noticeable.


The interior is equally impressive, featuring the Mach 1 Charcoal leather upholstery with the "AW" interior code. The factory interior upgrade package includes well-bolstered bucket seats, a classic-looking aluminum shift ball, and special Mach 1 badging on the seats and floor mats. Every element of the interior, from the dashboard to the headliner, is in remarkable condition, a testament to the car’s careful ownership and low mileage.


Performance and Upgrades


Beneath the Shaker hood lies the original 4.6-liter V8 engine, matched to the Tremec TR-3650 5-speed manual transmission. This drivetrain combination delivers a responsive and exhilarating drive, true to the Mach 1's muscle car legacy. The engine bay is clean and well-preserved, showing the level of care this car has received.


The vehicle has been slightly enhanced with an SLP Catback exhaust system, which adds a deeper, more aggressive tone to the V8’s growl. Subframe connectors have been bolted in to improve chassis rigidity, enhancing handling without compromising ride quality. While the rear wheels have been upgraded to wider aftermarket 10.5-inch wheels wrapped in Nitto tires, the original rear wheels are included with the car, maintaining its factory-correct authenticity.


Additional Features and Condition


This Mach 1 comes loaded with factory options that include power steering, factory air conditioning that blows cold, power windows, power locks, a 6-disc CD changer, and more. The hydroboost braking system with four-wheel disc brakes and drilled & slotted rotors provides excellent stopping power, ensuring safety to match the car’s performance capabilities.

From an exterior perspective, this Mustang is nearly flawless, with only a few minor blemishes noted on the lower body panels and the front bumper. The interior is equally pristine, with the original seats, door panels, and carpets showing minimal wear, indicative of the car's low mileage.
