...for now, at least.
[Ford] has now decided against using the ‘Mach 1’ name, telling !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in a recent interview that it won’t use the former Mustang badge after receiving considerable pushback from fans and customers.
“We put that out there to evaluate it,” Ford’s president of global markets, Jim Farley, told the publication. “There are pros and cons. I don’t want to handicap it at this point, but we got a very strong reaction from people.”

Why they thought it was a good idea in the first place is baffling. Mach 1 doesnt need to represent the same thing it used to but this was a turn to the complete wrong direction and headed for a cliff.
