Ford South Africa gave local Mustang fans a big surprise when they launched the new Mac 1 in the country. The pony car is one of the world's rarest machines and a true legend in the Mustang's history. Over the almost 60 years that the Mustang has been in existence, the Mach 1 only appeared on three occasions, with the current model the third.
The car is as special as they come, with the South African market only receiving an allocation of 90 units. And what came as little surprise, all 90 units were sold before the car was officially launched. Of the 90, 15 are fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox, with the remaining units featuring a recalibrated version of Ford's acclaimed 10-speed automatic transmission.
