It's been a fun 13 months since I took what looks to be the first worldwide delivery of the Mach E GT Performance Edition!
I put together a quick video to commemorate the occasion! Hope you like it! Beautiful car with intense initial acceleration. I've taken it drag racing & testing, frunk tailgating at @Iowa Hawkeyes @Wisconsin Badgers game, @Iowa Mustangs Unstabled Mustang drives & rallies, and getting lots of comments from admiring fans!
All the audio / sound, except for very end crescendo, is original and recorded by me inside or outside the car. You'll recognize the hums, I'm sure.
(Tip: the video starts all black, turn up volume a little to catch the sound)
Additional Details:
And no, I won't be trying to monetize the video - - - yet. (of course that's a joke referring to previous suggestions I could and I considered it for a few days)

Additional Details:
- 4,600 miles after 1 year (5,000 miles now - 1 year plus 1 month)
- No HVBJB issues - updated software happened in series of updates in August
- Best 1/4 mile track time was on 8/13/22: 12.389 @ 103.46mph, Engage mode.
- 5 Runs with very consistent results, both Engage & Unbridled.
- 1/4 Mile time varies only 0.093 seconds (12.389 to 12.482 seconds)
- Trap speed varied only 0.28mph (103.35 to 103.63mph) - TRULY INCREDIBLE CONSISTENCY
- Won every run at drag strip on 8/13/22 - against two Mustangs and tuned / modified Audi & Cadillac.
- Car is in pristine condition - stored during winter, never driven in rain, express detail every 2 weeks
- I frequently get comments from people when I'm out and about - many saying how beautiful it is or asking how I like it.
- I take people on short trips to show the speed and have even let about 15 people take the wheel themselves! One guy used to drag race 30 years ago and said he's not felt that kind of acceleration since he stopped racing.
